Help spot 8 signs of a fracture?

There are three main characteristics of fractures. Malformation. Bony cracks. Unusual activity.

Irregular movement of the limbs, with bone fricatives

(1) Deformity: the displacement of the fracture segment can change the shape of the affected limb, which is mainly manifested as shortening (2) Abnormal activity: the parts of the limb that cannot be moved under normal circumstances, abnormal activity after fracture (3) Bone fricative sound or bone rubbing sensation

After a fracture, when the two fractured ends rub against each other, a bone knock or bone rubbing sensation can occur.

As long as one of the above three signs is found, the diagnosis can be confirmed, but if these three signs are not seen, the possibility of fracture, such as insertion fracture and fracture fracture, cannot be ruled out.

When a child breaks a bone, they can experience a range of symptoms. In addition to the injury, some systemic symptoms may occur:

Fever: there is a large amount of internal bleeding at the fracture, and the body temperature rises slightly during hematoma resorption, but generally does not exceed it, and the possibility of infection should be considered when the body temperature rises in an open fracture.

Shock: for multiple fractures, pelvic fractures, femur fractures, spinal fractures, and severe open bones. Children often go into shock due to extensive soft-tissue injury, massive bleeding, severe pain, or concurrent visceral injury.

The specific symptoms of the fracture site are as follows:

1. Edema. When a fracture occurs, a hematoma forms in the affected area due to the rupture of the periosteum, bone marrow and surrounding tissues, and the nearby soft tissues are damaged and edema, resulting in swelling of the fracture site.

2. Ecchymosis. The patient's wound often has blue or purple ecchymosis, which is painful to the touch, and even more painful if the injury is moved.

3. Displacement. Most fracture segments have varying degrees of displacement, including lateral, angulated, shortened, rotational, and dissociative displacement, and are often present in the same affected area. Displacement can cause changes in the appearance of the affected area, most commonly as thickening, shortening, angle, or rotation.

4. Restricted limb movement or abnormal activity. Due to the swelling and pain of the injured area, the affected area is unable to perform normal activities, and its function is greatly limited. If the fracture is complete, the area will be completely immobile.

On the other hand, some parts that should not be moved will have abnormal activity due to the interruption of the bones.

If parents find that their child has systemic symptoms after a fracture, it proves that the fracture is serious, and they should immediately take first aid and send them to the hospital**, without delay.

Fracture-specific signs are deformity; Bone rubbing with sensitive sound or bone rubbing sensation; Unusual activity. A fracture can be diagnosed if there is one of the above three fracture signs.

A fracture is a complete partial rupture of the continuity of the bone structure, and the symptoms are pain, swelling, and dysfunction, so there will be pain at first, and then immediately after that, severe pain will be felt in the affected area accompanied by swelling, bruising, and deformation, and even the pain will be worse when breathing, and you will not dare to move.

What to do in the event of a fracture is:

1. The patient should be made to lie down, not to blindly move the patient, and not to pull or massage the patient's affected area.

2. To inspect the injured part, you can fix the injured part with branches, sticks, wooden boards, etc., to prevent the aggravation of the injury, and pay attention to keeping the affected area clean to prevent infection.

3. After the emergency treatment, send the patient to the hospital immediately.

At first, I only feel that the relevant part is completely unresponsive, and when it is severe, the external shape looks strange, and the pain is very little at first, but after a few hours, the pain gradually takes over all the senses.

It didn't hurt particularly when it was just broken, and I felt like I couldn't move at that time. It was super painful to walk around at first.

There was a click, and then it hurt!

Oops, why can't I move, O, I've got a broken bone,
