Discuss why injury to the ends of long bones in a child may be reason for serious concern.

Explanation:

Children and teens have patches of growing tissue near the end of their long bones. These points where growth occurs are called growth centers or growth plates. Growth plates determine how long children’s bones will be once they are mature.

When children or teens break bones, they may damage their growth plates at the same time. (Other injuries, such as sprains, can also damage growth plates.)

If the growth plate is damaged by a fracture or another injury, the bone may stop growing. This serious problem is called a growth arrest. Growth arrest can permanently stop a bone’s development and change how it functions. If only part of the growth plate is damaged and stops working, the bone may grow in an uneven way.
