There are 206 bones in the human body. The skeleton holds our skin up and bones act as factories for producing blood and essential blood cells through bone marrow bones are also integral to the body's strength. Some brains have a protective function, some a supporting function. While others are for movement. When a bone is broken or fractured, it affects not only blood production and function, but there can be complications associated with the muscles, tendons, nerves and blood vessels that are attached or are close to the bone.
