There are some injuries that occur from time to time in life, such as ankle sprains. At this time, many people will think of traditional Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, apply hot compresses, or rub the wound with their hands. However, this not only does not speed up**, but may cause more serious conditions such as swelling and ecchymosis of the wound.

In general, sports injuries are divided into acute, remission, and ** phases, and treatment should also be carried out in stages.

Acute growth period: Immediately apply a cold compress for 20 minutes.

The acute phase usually refers to the acute inflammatory reaction within 24 or 48 hours after the injury, when the injured tissue may bleed, and local symptoms such as red fever, swelling, pain, and dysfunction appear. The patient should stop moving, and choose treatment methods such as cold compress, compression bandaging, and elevation of the injured limb according to the situation. Generally, cold compress followed by pressure bandaging can also be done at the same time.

Cold compresses are generally 20 minutes each time, once every 4 hours; Discontinue use after 24 or 48 hours. When bandaging, you can place cotton or sponge of appropriate thickness on the wound, use a bandage to apply a little pressure, and pay attention to the condition of the bandaging site frequently. If the bandage is too loose or too tight, it should be redressed.

In general, it can be removed after 24 hours of pressurized bandaging.

If pain occurs after injury, external wound drugs such as Yunnan Baiyao (patent medicine) can be used to quickly reduce swelling and relieve pain and reduce acute inflammation. Those with severe pain can take painkillers such as Fenbide, and those with severe congestion can take bone-setting pills, Qilisan, etc. During this period, you should not apply warm compresses or massage the injured area, otherwise it will aggravate the bleeding and tissue fluid exudation, making the injured area more swollen.

Although the wound cannot be rubbed, it can be clicked on the surrounding parts along the meridian and acupoints, which is conducive to reducing swelling and relieving pain. For example, if your wrist is injured and swollen and painful, tap Quchi, Neiguan, and Hegu; If you have an ankle injury, tap the sea of blood and the three yin sex. It doesn't matter if the injured person or family members don't know the acupuncture points, as long as the position is roughly correct.

Broken foot is a thing that people often encounter in life, and it is called "foot and ankle sprain" in medicine. This type of trauma is an injury in which the ankle is pulled and torn by an external force that excesses the foot and ankle beyond its maximum range of motion, causing pain, swelling and limping.

First of all, after the injury, avoid continuing to bear weight or walk, and do not rub the wound by a companion.

The affected ankle can be bandaged and fixed in a mild valgus position after 90 years of dorsal extension of the foot and ankle can be bandaged or fixed with a bandage, and the walking can be restricted, and the patient should be sent to the hospital for treatment.

Clause. 2. For those with mild symptoms, cold water or cold towels can be applied and the affected limb can be elevated immediately after the injury. At this time, the cold compress can constrict the blood vessels, reduce local congestion, reduce tissue temperature, and play the role of hemostasis, swelling and analgesia. Therefore, after an acute sprain, a local cold compress should be applied as soon as possible.

Elevating the affected limb can speed up the return of blood and lymph fluid, so that blood stasis will not accumulate in the blood vessel injury.

Cold compress method: Put a towel soaked in cold water on the wound and change it every 3 minutes or so, or you can put ice cubes in a plastic bag for external compression, 20 to 30 minutes each time. In summer, you can use tap water to rinse, and the rinsing time is generally about 4 to 5 minutes, not too long.

Clause. 3. If the ankle sprain has been more than 24 hours, it should be switched to a warm compress**. At this time, warm compresses can improve blood and lymphatic circulation, which is conducive to the absorption of bruising and exudate from the wound.

Hot compress method: Put a towel soaked in hot water or hot vinegar on the injured area, and replace the towel after 5 to 10 minutes when there is no heat. Apply 1 2 times a day for about 30 minutes each time.

After the sprain of the joint, it should be treated in time, the principle is to immobilize and reduce swelling and stasis, so that the damaged tissue can be well repaired. If there is a large amount of hemarthrosis, it should be withdrawn in time under aseptic technique to avoid intra-articular adhesions after sequea. Ligament rupture or avulsion fracture that affects joint stability requires surgical reduction repair to avoid recurrent sprains, articular cartilage damage and traumatic arthritis.

A guide to caring for your ankle sprain! Ankle sprains are easy to fall into the root of the disease, learn these 3 tricks and you will no longer be afraid of sprains leaving sequelae!

In daily life, it is common for the foot to be sprained due to careless walking, what should I do about it?

1. Distinguish the severity of the injury. If you can stand with weight and barely walk after a foot sprain, it means that the sprain is mild and you can deal with it yourself; If you have severe pain in the ankle after the foot sprain, you can't stand or move with weight, press the painful place on the bone, and gradually swell, it means that the bone may be sprained, and you should go to the hospital immediately for radiographic treatment.

2. Use hot and cold compresses correctly. In the early stages of a sprain, a small ruptured blood vessel is bleeding, and a cold compress can be applied to constrict the blood vessel and coagulate to control the progression of the injury. After 24 hours, the bleeding from the ruptured vessel stops, at which point a warm compress can be applied to help the bruising around the sprain dissipate.

3. Correctly press and knead the sprained part. In the early stage of sprain, it is better to do continuous pressing on the hematoma; After 24 hours, the kneading method is done, centering on the swollen area and rubbing in all directions around it.

Fourth, the appropriate implementation of activities. In the early stages of a sprain, swelling and pain gradually worsen, and the affected limb should be elevated. After the condition stabilizes, as long as it is not painful, you can gradually increase the activity of the foot and ankle.

5. Rational use of drugs. In the early stage of sprain, there is no need to take internal medicine, and it is not advisable to apply drugs that invigorate blood externally, so as not to have more blood flow and greater swelling. After 24 hours, take some Yunnan Baiyao, bone-setting pills, blood circulation and pain relief, and then apply Wuhu Dan externally, and after the swelling is reduced, there is no need to take internal and external medicines.

6. If the sprain hurts the bone, after the doctor puts a plaster cast, you must pay attention:

1. Within about a few minutes of putting on the cast, you can't move the affected foot casually. Because the gypsum has not yet hardened at this time, it is easy to deform.

2. Within the first 24 hours of applying the plaster, attention should be paid to the tightness of the plaster.

3. After the foot is put on the plaster, it is generally not suitable to walk on the ground.

4. In summer, the foot should be placed in a cool place to prevent excessive foot sweat and accumulation in the plaster.

5. In winter, when applying a plaster, pay attention to keeping the affected limb warm, and do not frostbite the foot outside the plaster.

6. If the pain worsens after the cast, you should ask a doctor for examination in time.

Pound the ginger and apply it to the affected area several times a day to reduce inflammation and relieve pain.

First, it is necessary to distinguish the severity of the injury. Generally speaking, if the pain is not severe when you move your ankle, most of it is a soft tissue injury, and you can treat it yourself. If you have severe pain when you move your ankle, you cannot stand or move, if you have pain in your bones, if you have a sound when you sprain or if you have rapid swelling after an injury, it is a sign of a fracture and you should go to the hospital for treatment immediately.

Second, use hot and cold compresses correctly. Hot and cold compresses are both physical**, but they have very different effects. Blood is alive when it is hot, and it coagulates when it is cold, so it is advisable to apply cold compresses in the early stage of injury to reduce local hematoma; Applying a warm compress after the bleeding has stopped will speed up the dissipation of bruising around the wound.

In general, warm compresses are applied 24 hours after the injury.

Third, drugs**. Traditional Chinese medicine can be applied to the wound. Relaxes muscles and invigorates blood, reduces swelling and relieves pain, and invigorates blood and disperses stasis.

Fourth, local massage. Use the thumbs of both hands to gently rub the injured area from the feet to the calves, which will relieve pain and reduce swelling.

Yunnan Baiyao spray seems to be quite effective, it is the white bottle and the red bottle.

At first, it was necessary to apply ice, otherwise the swelling would be severe, and after 48 hours, a hot compress should be massaged with medicine.

It is recommended to find someone who knows how to correct bones for massage.

Within 24 hours, cold compress or ice compress is applied to facilitate vasoconstriction, reduce bleeding, and play a role in reducing swelling and relieving pain, and hot compress can be applied after 24 hours to promote blood circulation and reduce edema.

Minor soft-tissue injuries usually heal spontaneously. However, if it does not heal itself within 2-4 weeks, it must be active**, otherwise it will be more troublesome to develop into old pain.

Topical medicine can choose Yunnan Baiyao or safflower oil, if there is no effect, then the application of bone-setting wine, is a very effective symptomatic drug for soft tissue injury is not expensive.

Ankle sprain, if the injury does not involve the ligament tissue, as long as it is conservative, abide by the principles of rest, ice, compression bandaging, and elevation of the affected limb, you can get a satisfactory curative effect. In the acute phase of the injury, that is, within 24 hours, if you use safflower oil to rub it, it will aggravate the blood exudation of the injured site and aggravate the swelling, so the use of safflower oil must be 24 hours after the injury, and it should not be used for patients with ulceration or allergies. In the acute phase, cold compresses can be applied for 24 to 48 hours each time, 10 to 20 minutes each time, once every 6 hours.

Massage is not possible in the acute phase. For acute injury, you can press the Yanglingquan acupuncture point to reduce the pain. In severe cases, apply it externally with bone grafting**.

Within 24 hours of spraining, cold compress is used to constrict blood vessels, reduce swelling and relieve pain. Apply an ice pack or cold washcloth to the affected area for 15 minutes every 6 hours.

After 24 hours, a warm compress is applied to promote local blood circulation, accelerate the dissipation of blood stasis around the wound, and reduce pain.

As soon as the injury occurs, do not apply plasters. It will have to wait 24 hours. This is because the human tissues are inflammatory after being damaged by external forces, and a large amount of fluid leaks out of the blood vessels to the sprain, and the local swelling slowly appears, which then compresses the nerves and causes pain. This reaction is in.

It can reach its peak within 24 hours, and if it is applied during this period, its blood-invigorating effect will accelerate local blood circulation, and the fluid oozing from the blood vessels will also increase, and the local swelling and pain will also increase. Because the plaster has the effect of invigorating blood and dissipating blood stasis, the plaster after injury cannot achieve the purpose of reducing swelling and relieving pain. Take drugs that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, such as Yunnan Baiyao.

Elevate the injured leg as much as possible to promote blood circulation.

If you get the right treatment at the time, if you get it on the second or third day, it's fine, it's fine, it's just a small sprain. But it sounds.

You haven't been well for a week, so pay attention, then you may have a fracture or a torn ligament, and you should see a doctor. Or you can apply some plaster products and drugs appropriately, and use the plaster that is used by the public, such as Korean Lengba, etc., to apply the plaster to the sore area. Or you can apply some peanut oil to your hands and slowly massage the sore area.

Hope mine can help you, I wish you a speedy **.

1. Immediate immobilization, swelling and pain relief and infection spread.

Check for fractures immediately after a sprain, and if not, brake the injury to avoid accelerated congestion and swelling. Then apply a towel or ice cube soaked in cold water to the sprained area, every three to four hours for 20 to 30 minutes, or use medicine**: raw gardenia and flour mixed with egg whites, wet compress the swollen area, compress and bandage, and change once a day.

Whether it is a drug** or a cold compress**, it can be used in the early stage of a sprain to relieve pain and inhibit and reduce swelling, and the operation method is relatively simple, and it is no longer used after two to three days of sprain. In particular, it should be noted that the color of the sprain should be often observed when applying cold compresses, if it turns purple and blue, and feels numb, it means venous blood stasis, and the cold compress must be stopped immediately, otherwise it will hinder the nutrition and oxygen, reduce the resistance of cells, and cause tissue necrosis in severe cases.

2. Improve blood circulation in the wound, reduce inflammation and swelling, and accelerate the removal of congestion.

After two to three days of wet or cold compress with the drug, the sprained vascular wound has coagulated, at this time, in order to promote blood circulation and stasis and prevent the formation of adhesions in the wound, the method of hot compress can be used**. Soak a towel in warm water at 40 to 50 degrees Celsius for a short time, and apply a hot compress to the sprained area (do not burn) for 15 to 20 minutes every 3 to 4 hours. During the hot compress, the use of internal Chinese herbal medicine, cupping, massage and other methods to cooperate**, especially during the massage period is extremely important.

However, the massage technique should be light to heavy, from the area around the injury to the local. The first few massages of the injured area must be light.

3. Soften or separate the adhesions that may form and promote the recovery of function of the sprained area.

When the swelling and tenderness of the wound have been eliminated, but the movement still feels slight pain, and the joint movement is weak, at this time, the muscle strength and joint activity function of the sprain can be exercised. The amount of exercise should be gradual, especially the first few exercises should not be too large.

At the same time as the functional exercise of the injured part, attention should also be paid to massage, hot compress and Chinese herbal fumigation to accelerate the effect of **.
