Broken Bones


Fracture Putty is a new a gel that researchers have developed to help speed up the healing of bones. This gel was created by a team at the University of Georgia. The gel is created by using stem cells. The stem cells create a protein that helps bone healing. By taking these stem cells and turning them into a gel, it can be put into a bone fracture and speed up healing time.

I wish I would have known about this last year when I broke my ankle. Have you guys ever broken anything?
