If a limb fracture suffers from edema, what should I do if the fracture is edema?

Edema after a fracture should be treated in the following ways: First, elevate the affected limb and immobilize the fracture. The fracture can cause peripheral soft tissue contusion and bleeding from the subcutaneous tissues, which can be pushed back by elevating the affected limb.

Immobilization of the fracture can alleviate re-damage to surrounding structures and facilitate removal of swelling. Second, part of the ice and heat. Cold compresses and ice compresses can be used for the acute symptoms of fractures, which can tighten capillaries, reduce extravasation, and have the effect of reducing swelling and relieving pain.

During the recovery period of surgery, heat can be applied, which is beneficial to improve the blood circulation system and also has a certain help for swelling.

For patients with venous thrombosis after fracture due to edema, the size of the venous thrombosis must generally be established, for the initial venous thrombosis or can be actively carried out anticoagulation thrombolysis**, for the venous thrombosis is relatively large, generally or adequate surgical treatment. In addition, because of the damage to part of the venous blood flow, the venous blood flow is not very good, and the affected limb must be elevated for such patients, which is beneficial to the venous blood flow back and is conducive to swelling. Perseverance scrub it every day, scalding can be applied to the outside of some Chinese herbal medicines that invigorate blood circulation and dispel stasis and depression, after boiling, smoke first and then wash, twice a day, each time for more than half an hour, the effect will become more and more significant.

There are two levels of elements for edema after fracture, the acute symptoms are mainly caused by the accumulation of blood edema, which can be used orally or externally to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, reduce swelling and relieve pain. In the middle and late stages, it is mainly due to long-term inactive activities, the efficiency of the whole body muscle pump is reduced, and the effect of the venous valve is reduced, resulting in venous blood reflux. It can be exercised according to the strengthening function, the squeezing of the muscles of the whole body, the repair of the venous valve, the smooth lymphatic return, and the edema can also dissipate.

Medicines can speed up the reduction of swelling, it is recommended to eat the spleen and dampness of the Chinese herbal medicine Ji Ming San, or Wu Ling San, standing medicines such as Fu Ling, Atractylodes cocos, Di Gu Pi, Zhu Ling, Zeeland, salt psyllium, Gui Zhi, Xiaobai, Yao Lingzi these. Medications: Take some drugs that promote blood circulation, swelling drugs, such as chestnut seed phytosterols, spironolactone tablets, etc.

It takes about 3 months for the fracture to completely disappear, but it is not possible to determine the actual time of swelling reduction due to the different physical qualities of the person, the location of the fracture, and the medical condition, so it is impossible to determine the actual time of swelling. The peak period of swelling is within 48-72 hours, and after 1 week, the swelling will be moderately relieved, and the swelling will be very obvious after 1 month. Moderate medical care is beneficial to clear edema, ice can be carried out within 48 hours of fracture to reduce swelling, 72 hours after fracture can be carried out to apply heat, and elevate the affected limb, which is also a very good way to reduce swelling, higher than the cardiovascular level can have the effect of reducing swelling, and can also be taken internally to reduce swelling.

Maybe the limbs are moving forward, so that maybe it promotes the fluid to return, and then there is usually a lot of exercise, or a lot of calcium, or a lot of medicine, labor.

This problem can be solved by the method of hot compress, ice compress, acupuncture, massage and drinking Chinese medicine.

It can improve the patient's limbs, so that it can promote blood return, and then you can usually exercise more, you can supplement more calcium, you can eat more blood-invigorating drugs, and have a good rest.

Wet compresses should be applied immediately, and proper massage is also required to quickly relieve edema.

Suggestions: 1. Rest: The first thing to do in post-trauma treatment is to rest and limit the activities of the injured limb to reduce bleeding, slow down the swelling and pain of the limb, and prevent the injury from aggravating.

2 Ice: It can effectively reduce the degree of swelling and pain in the limbs. When using, the temperature of the ice pack should be maintained at 0 as much as possible, so as to avoid frostbite or ice.

Apply ice for 15 to 30 minutes at a time, and may be used repeatedly until the local pain is gone.

Hello, according to your description. It is initially thought that this should be edema caused by obstruction of venous return to the lower extremities.

Guidance: If the swelling is not severe now, you can choose to elevate the edematous lower limbs, if the swelling is very severe, you can use miscanthus nitrate: borneol = 5000:1 to reduce the swelling in an emergency.

It is also advisable to hurry up** for pressure sores, which can cause a serious infection if they persist.

Post-fracture edema is generally caused by the increase of local tissue seepage after fracture, and the damage of local venous vessels and lymphatic vessels, resulting in blood and lymphatic fluid reflux disorders, and the swelling itself can lead to local pressure enhancement, further compression of veins and lymphatic vessels, and aggravate swelling. This swelling generally compresses and does not have obvious pitting drawbacks, tissue tension, tissue interstitial protein content is relatively high, and there are obvious depressions after compression, this situation is generally more tissue water, less protein, often caused by leakage, this situation, generally has kidney disease, or cardiac insufficiency, or liver disease or hypoproteinemia after hemorrhage, for the front of non-pitting edema, elevate the limb, with furosemide, mannitol, escin sodium, etc. Generally, it can be recovered, but for the calf, forearm, etc., the swelling is obvious, and it is necessary to be alert to the appearance of compartment syndrome, which is to pay attention to the blood circulation and sensation at the end of the limbs, that is, the fingers or toes, cold numbness, pale or purple blood in the nails, etc., and need to measure the pressure and do compartment incision and decompression surgery**. For the latter, fracture is only a precipitating factor, and it is necessary to give ** the primary disease, and it is often necessary to supplement human blood albumin injections to promote edema resolution, and at the same time, it is necessary to limit water and salt intake.

There is still a certain difference between edema and edema in medicine, edema is generally said to be depressed edema by compression, and unilateral edema generally refers to the compression without obvious depression, so after the fracture, it is often reported that the fan sees edema in general condition, and there is no depression when pressing.
