How do fractions and sprains differ?

Fraction are mathematical and sprains are health related. Now Fractures are broken bones and Sprains occur when a body part is twisted past the normal range of motion and tendons are stretched beyond their normal capability and the body will usually respond with swelling and pain so nothing is broken like fractures. Fractures usually are very painful and you will feel pain that does not go away. Sprains will hurt and sometimes a lot but the pain goes away little by little and so does the swelling. Fractures are usually detected by X-rays. Sprains can't be scene on a standard X-ray because it is soft tissue damage.
