In real life, almost everyone falls. When falling, the bottom is the first place to land, which will cause pain in the bottom. Most of these pains are caused by soft tissue damage, especially for young people. The possibility of fracture is relatively small. But for elderly patients, most hip falls may present as fractures, possibly intertrochanteric fractures, possibly femoral neck fractures, or pubic ramus fractures, ischial ramus fractures, or other pelvic fractures. Specific also according to the perfect examination to judge, such as pelvic CT, etc., if there are fractures but also active surgical treatment, such as femoral neck fracture.
