n contrast, pathological fractures look more jagged because these types of breaks are usually caused by underlying medical issues such as osteoporosis, cancer or stress injuries which cause weakening in certain areas of the bone. This makes them prone to cracking under normal levels of stress from everyday activities.

In terms of treatment options, traumatic fractures typically require immobilization while surgical intervention may be necessary for some cases depending on severity & extent damage incurred – although medications can also be used so help reduce pain if desired too (i.e., ibuprofen). On other hand though because pathological breaks often result due weakened state bones prior breaking point occurred there may need different approach here i.e., addressing primary disease causing problem first before attempting fix fracture itself (if possible); otherwise surgery may still best course action regardless however should not attempted without consulting qualified doctor beforehand . Otherwise longterm complications could arise from any attempts self-treatment!

In conclusion then knowing how classify & treat type fracture being dealt with essential order ensure successful recovery period ahead no matter whether it was traumatic versus pathological origin originally – otherwise wrong/inadequate intervention taken leave worse consequences down road unfortunately 🙁
