Stable type A injuries.

  • Refer to orthopaedics for analgesia, initial bedrest and then mobilisation (usually after 3 to 6 weeks).
  • Avulsion fractures: usually only require rest and pain relief.
  • Larger avulsions, especially of the ischial tuberosity, may require internal fixation to avoid complications such as non-union.
