T10: Fracture of upper limb, level unspecified

A fracture of the upper limb refers to a break in any of the bones in the upper part of the arm, which includes the humerus, radius, and ulna. This type of injury often occurs as a result of a strong force or impact, typically from incidents such as car accidents, sports injuries, falls, or direct blows. Common symptoms often include pain, swelling, tenderness around the affected area, difficulty in moving the arm, and sometimes, a visible deformity if the fracture is severe. In some cases, there may also be numbness or weakness if the fracture affects the nerves. It can take several weeks to months for fractures to fully heal, depending on the severity and location of the fracture. During the healing process, it's important for the bone to be kept in the correct position and to avoid any activities that could potentially cause more harm.
