What to do if you sprain your foot on the pitch

Precautions for bruises, sprains, and falls:

1. Don't twist casually.

When people sprain their limbs, they often involuntarily turn or massage, but many times casual twisting will aggravate the symptoms of the injured part, especially before the exact diagnosis is made, and the sprained part should not be moved casually. If it's a limb, raise your wrist so that your blood can flow smoothly. The right way is this::

If you have an upper arm fracture, it's best to put your arm at heart level, and if you have a lower limb, raise your leg above knee level.

2. Do not apply hot compresses, but cold compresses.

Many of us will take a hot towel and put it on the painful part after a fall and sprain, feeling that it will be more comfortable, but this practice is not right, because the capillary bleeding, the hot compress makes his blood vessels further dilate, the hematoma is more severe, and the healing will be slow in the future, if he is a fracture, then it can not be hot. Cold compresses can control capillary bleeding. Therefore, it is also important to apply a warm compress to the injured area, and if you feel that the pain is unbearable, you can use ice cubes to apply a cold compress.

3. Apply safflower oil.

When a capillary ruptures, applying safflower oil will increase blood flow and make the swelling worse. 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.

4. Paste bruise ointment.

The bruising cream can allow the drug to penetrate quickly through the human body, produce blood and qi, and relax tendons and knots. However, if a fracture has already occurred in the sprain, applying a plaster will only temporarily relieve the superficial symptoms, and the fractured area will not grow well, and it is easy to misalign and eventually cause bone deformity.

In daily life, accidentally sprained feet are a common occurrence, what to do about it?

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.

Use heat 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.

Properly press the sprain area. 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.

Conduct activities appropriately. 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.

Rational use of medicines. 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.

If you sprain and hurt your bones, you must pay attention to the following after the doctor puts a cast

Just put on the cast for about a minute, and you can't move the affected foot casually. Because the gypsum has not yet hardened at this time, it is easy to deform.

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

After the foot is put on a cast, it is generally not suitable to walk on the ground.

In summer, the foot should be placed in a cool place to prevent excessive foot sweat from accumulating in the cast.

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

If the pain worsens after the cast is applied, you should consult a doctor for examination.
