What should I eat to recuperate after a fracture?

Hello, in the early stage of fracture, due to the soft tissue in the edema and congestion stage, you should ensure the intake of fluids every day, so you should try to drink more water and eat more vegetables, meat and eggs, soy products, fruits, fish soup, etc., such foods are often easy to digest, and there is sufficient calcium and vitamin intake.

It is best for fracture patients to eat calcium-rich foods, such as milk, which is rich in calcium, which can promote the absorption of calcium in the body and promote the early healing of fractures. It is recommended that patients with fractures take a bag of milk in the morning and evening, and at the same time, milk can also be added to soy milk, with vegetable protein and animal protein, which is rich in nutrition and conducive to the healing of fractures.

Patients with fractures should adopt a diet rich in nutrients, vitamins, and fiber. Because after the fracture, the patient is on bed rest, abdominal distension and constipation will occur, and eating more vegetables and fruits rich in fiber can alleviate the occurrence of constipation.

In addition, you can also drink bone broth and pork ribs stewed tofu, which are rich in calcium and conducive to the early healing of fractures. Remember not to eat too fatty food, do not eat hair, etc.

Hello; Fracture healing is generally divided into three stages: primary, middle and posterior, and the diet should also be accompanied by different foods according to the development of the disease to promote hematoma resorption or callus formation.

In the early stage of fracture, the injured part is bruised and swollen, the meridians are blocked, and the qi and blood are blocked. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that if the stasis is not removed, the bone cannot be born, and the new bone is born if the stasis is removed. It can be seen that swelling and stasis are the first priority for fracture healing.

The dietary principle is mainly light, such as vegetables, eggs, soy products, fruits, fish soup, gravy, etc., avoid sour and spicy, hot, greasy, especially not to give fatty and nourishing products too early. Such as bone broth, boiled chicken, stewed fish, otherwise, blood congestion is stagnant, it is difficult to dissipate, so that the formation of bone callus is slow, and it affects the recovery of joint function in the future.

Three to four weeks after the injury, most of the congestion is absorbed, and the fracture is in the middle of recovery. The diet should be changed from light to appropriate high-nutrient supplementation to meet the needs of callus growth, and supplement vitamins A, D, calcium and protein.

Six to eight weeks after injury. The fracture bruise is basically absorbed, and there is already a callus formation, which should be supplemented, by nourishing the liver and kidney, qi and blood, in order to promote the formation of a firm callus, as well as relax the tendons and activate the nerves, so that the adjacent joints can move freely and flexibly, and restore the previous function. In terms of diet, taboos can be lifted, and high-nutrient foods can be given to tonics, and those who can drink alcohol can be given, eucommia ulmoides bone crushed tonic wine, tiger bone papaya wine.

Diet is only to cooperate with **, grasp the principle that the fracture should be light in the early stage, should be supported in the middle stage, and should be supplemented in the later stage, and choose appropriate food will have a positive effect on promoting fracture healing.

If you have money, you will eat tiger bones, and if you don't have money, you will eat pork bones. If there are tiger bones to eat, the recovery course can be shortened by at least half. However, it should not be combined with other Chinese medicines.

Depending on the condition of your disease, the recovery time will vary, so it is recommended to monitor your condition closely. Generally, surgery is not required, and it is safer to use Miao cloth ointment in a conservative way to strengthen blood circulation in the painful area. Physical activity will not be affected after recovery.

Patients with fractures do not need to be "taboo", and there are no special restrictions on diet. Eating more vegetables and fruits is certainly helpful, but rumor has it that the way to drink more pork rib soup is wrong, as it often leads to overnutrition. One thing in particular is not to smoke, as the notorious cigarettes have been linked to many diseases, including heart disease and cancer, and can impair the ability of wounds to heal.

After orthopedic surgery, especially after fracture surgery, many patients and their families will ask whether they should eat bone broth, whether they need to supplement it, etc., or some patients will ask if they can eat hair products such as fish, shrimp or beef and mutton. In fact, from the perspective of Western medicine surgery, after surgery, it is more necessary to supplement high-protein substances to promote wound healing, and supplementation of high-calcium foods can promote fracture healing. Bone broth is actually not particularly rich in nutritional value, it may taste better and can promote the patient's appetite, but from the perspective of real nutritional supplementation, bone broth is not suitable, you can find the corresponding dietitian to adjust the diet reasonably, meat, eggs, fish are things that can be eaten after surgery, on the contrary, you can encourage everyone to eat more meat, high-protein food, can promote wound healing, promote bone healing.

After the fracture, the following types of foods can be used to recuperate, which can help the rapid recovery of the fracture: 1. Fracture patients are suitable to eat more foods rich in calcium, vitamins, protein and dietary fiber, such as lean meat, fish, beef, mutton, eggs, milk, bone broth, melons, fruits and vegetables and other nutritious foods; 2. You can take some health care products that can provide nutrients for the body, protein powder and multivitamins are more suitable for fracture patients, but you should choose according to your physical condition before taking, you can consult a doctor, and if it is suitable, you can take it; 3. You can also eat some calcium supplements, such as calcium sulfate or calcium carbonate, and also supplement vitamin D.

The growth of bones requires two components, one is organic matter and the other is inorganic matter. After the fracture, eat more lean meat, eggs, fish, and shrimp; Drink more milk and eat more soy products to promote the healing of fractures; Also eat more fruits, vegetables, and crude fiber foods, which can help the fracture heal.

As the saying goes: 100 days to break your muscles and bones. It is said that the recovery time after a fracture is relatively long, and the diet of patients with fractures is very important during a long recovery period.

So, what to eat to recover quickly after a fracture? First of all, it is necessary to understand what raw materials are needed for bone growth, and fracture healing mainly needs collagen, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamins C and D, which are osteogenic elements, so after fractures, we should focus on supplementing these substances, especially the elderly. 1. High-energy, high-protein diet:

Helps to restore vitality. However, it should be consumed 2 weeks after the fracture. In the early stage of fracture, it is advisable to eat a light diet.

2. Vitamin D: If you have been recuperating indoors after a fracture and cannot get sun, you are prone to lack of vitamin D. Therefore, after a fracture, it is necessary to eat more foods rich in vitamin D (such as fish, liver, egg yolks, etc.) and get as much sun as possible.

3. Vitamin C: Fruits rich in vitamin C include hawthorn, fresh dates, kiwifruit, strawberries, longan, lychee, citrus, etc., and vegetables include alfalfa (grass), chili, bell pepper, rapeseed, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts (soup), bitter gourd, watercress, broccoli, green amaranth, etc. 4. Water:

After the fracture, due to long-term bed rest, the amount of activity is reduced, and the intestinal peristalsis is slow, which is easy to cause constipation, and you should drink more water to ensure the smooth intestinal tract. 2 weeks after the fracture, the diet that can be supplemented is Tianqi claypot chicken, animal liver, etc., to supplement more vitamins A, D, calcium and protein. For fractures of more than 5 weeks, the recipe can be accompanied by old hen soup, pork bone soup, mutton bone soup, deer tendon soup, stewed fish, etc., and those who can drink can choose eucommia bone crushing tonic wine, chicken blood vine wine, tiger bone papaya wine, etc.

After a fracture, it is divided into the early stage of the fracture, the middle stage, and the late stage. In the early stage of fracture, the general recommendation is to eat a light diet, mainly liquid and easily digestible food, you can eat some fresh vegetables and fruits, you can also drink some yogurt or drink some noodles, or drink some rice porridge, millet porridge, vegetable porridge and other foods.

In the middle stage of fracture, patients can choose some foods that contain protein, collagen, and calcium, such as eating some pig's trotters or drinking some chicken soup and fish soup. In the later stage of the fracture, the patient can basically return to a normal diet, and it is generally recommended to eat more foods containing calcium or vitamin D, and you can also drink some bone broth and pigeon soup appropriately.

Hello after a fracture to rely on rest and tonics to promote the healing of broken bones, generally it takes a long time, as fast as three months to six months to heal, but there are also some more than half a year to a year of bones have not healed thoroughly, it can be seen that rest and taking supplements are not much help for bone growth. If the fracture wants to heal quickly and thoroughly, it is recommended that you choose traditional Chinese medicine**, just a simple local external application to quickly connect the bone, and the early medication of adult fracture can be basically healed in about 25 days. No matter what kind of tissue damage, the truth is the same, only let the damaged tissue grow quickly can heal, the focus is not to rest and take supplements, but to let it grow quickly.

Only by allowing the broken bones to grow and heal in a short period of time is the key point of the **.

Avoid eating carp, rooster, sour bamboo shoots, beef, ginger, high-calcium and high-protein foods, etc., Western medicine should be used with caution, especially hormone-containing drugs, and it is advisable to eat more fresh vegetables and appropriate amount of fresh meat.
