A crush injury is sustained when a part of the body is caught between two objects that are being pushed together by a high pressure. Crush injuries often result in Fractures, Bruising and Lacerations. The most common causes of crush injuries are Road Traffic Accidents and Slips, Trips and Falls. But there are also varying degrees of crush injuries, from slamming a finger in a door to limbs being trapped and crushed for an extended period of time.
