If the foot is twisted, how can I tell if there is a fracture?

It should be a soft tissue injury, but if you want to know whether there is a fracture, you have to go to the hospital to take a ** to be sure.

In addition, if the x-ray confirms that there is no fracture but only a soft tissue injury, a cold compress is applied for the first 24 hours to reduce swelling and pain, and a warm compress is started after 24 hours.

Differential diagnosis of ankle sprain and fracture:

1.Ankle sprain: A soft tissue injury to the ankle that is able to walk despite severe pain.

2.Ankle fracture: Fracture or fracture of the ankle, except for severe pain, the foot cannot touch the ground, let alone walk.

General mild soft tissue contusion, is not obvious swelling, only soft tissue contusion is severe or there is a fracture will be obvious swelling, at the same time not all fractures will be so painful that you can't walk, some linear fractures or incomplete fractures have no obvious pain, it is recommended to go to the hospital for X-ray examination is the best, if you really don't want to go to the examination immediately, you can observe for a night, rest when the injured limb is elevated, higher than the heart for benefit, If there is no improvement by tomorrow, you must go to the hospital for examination, regardless of whether there is a fracture or not, you need regular medical treatment, but be careful not to walk on the ground at will. Anyway, if you want to go tomorrow, I recommend that you don't go, and that recuperating at home is the best option.

You can try to move, generally if you can move, it is not a big deal, if you are not at ease, it is best to go to the hospital to see.

A foot injury is medically known as a "foot and ankle sprain". 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.

Distinguish the severity of the injury: Mild foot fracture is only a soft tissue injury, a slightly more serious one may be a fracture of the lateral malleolus or the base of the fifth metatarsal, and even a serious one may be a bilateral malleolar fracture of the medial and lateral malleolus, or even a trimalleolar fracture. The light ones can be disposed of by themselves, and the heavy ones must go to the hospital for a doctor's diagnosis and **.

Therefore, it is very important to distinguish the severity of the injury.

Generally speaking, if you don't have severe pain when you move your ankle, you can barely stand with weight and barely walk; If the pain is not on the bones but on the muscles, most of the pain is a sprain, so you can deal with it yourself. If you have severe pain when you move your ankles, you can't stand and move with weight.

If the pain is on the bone, or when you feel a sound in the foot when you sprain it, and the swelling occurs quickly after the injury, especially if the tender point is on the bone with a high protrusion in the middle of the outer malleolus or outer foot surface, it is a sign of serious injury and you should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment immediately. If you can't go to the hospital for a while due to conditions, you can also temporarily use simple items such as wooden sticks, books, scarves, bandages, etc. to fix the injured part and reduce your activities as much as possible. Then go to the hospital as soon as possible for diagnosis**.

The swelling is noticeable and rapid (not if it is not after a long time), the pain is severe, the pain is not so severe in trauma without fractures, and the ankle fractures are generally located in the medial and lateral malleolus.

Plus pat**.

The surface is difficult to see, you need to take a film, you can go to the hospital to take an X-ray, about 30 yuan. After the examination, it should be taken in time according to the specific situation, so as not to cause delays in the condition and trouble in the future.

The doctor replied: There must be a ligament laceration or fracture, immobilization of the affected limb, cold compress, go to the hospital as soon as possible to check it out at a convenient time.

Only X-rays are taken.

Diagnosed. But it's unlikely that you'll have a fracture in this condition. It is recommended that you pay attention to rest and try not to move, elevating the affected limb is conducive to the elimination of edema; Topical compresses can be given, topical musk strong bone paste or Yunnan Baiyao aerosol, oral blood circulation and pain relief capsules and anti-inflammatory drugs, and it will gradually get better.

Good luck soon**!

Don't judge, go to the hospital and get a film.

Foot sprains are very common, sometimes walking stairs or sports are easy to sprain feet, according to some statistics we can find that there is a 1 in 10,000 probability that someone will sprain their feet every day in the United States. If an athlete sprains his foot, he may apply some plasters to reduce swelling, but if it is an old lady sprained, then it is a tendon and bones, and it may be necessary to stay in bed for 100 days, so in daily life, if the foot is sprained, do not be careless, go to the hospital for examination in time, and be sure to pay attention to the foot sprain, sometimes it will cause habitual sprains if it drags on for a long time.

If you can clearly feel the protrusion of the bone, then it means that the fracture is broken, if it is only swollen, then it means that the foot is twisted.

If you feel a lot of pain, and you can't move your joints or walk, you have a broken bone.

Should go to the hospital to take a corresponding **. This way you will know if you have a fracture or not, and you will also have a good examination.

In the summer, the air outside gets better. And it's cool, and there are more people exercising outdoors. And there are more unexpected situations.

Sometimes a fracture is formed in one area. Let's start with fractures, which are caused by violence (traumatic fractures) and fractures due to disease (pathological fractures).

Traumatic fractures can be divided into 1Closed fracture 2Open fractures. Classified according to the degree and shape of the fracture:

1.Incomplete fractures include fissure fractures and greenstick fractures.

2.Complete fractures include: Transverse fractures, oblique fractures, spiral fractures, destructive fractures, insertion fractures, contraction fractures, depressed fractures, epiphyseal separation, dislodged fractures. If the open wound is large, if the fracture is broken, the bone fragment and the fractured end can be seen.

3.In the case of closed fractures, the general criterion for identification is: Some are red, swollen, painful, and have limited movement.

In the doctor's physical examination, there are also bone fricatives, bone rubbing sensation and abnormal activity. It is estimated that the latter three things will be checked. These do not apply to avulsion fractures and constriction fractures.

If you have a violent trauma, you must go to the hospital for a check-up. If there is no violent trauma, then it is empirical. For example, children.

Children don't lie, ** pain may be a problem, children are generally injured in the pull of parents, that is, pulling arms. If the child is afraid to move his arms, it is usually a problem with the shoulder or elbow joint. Be sure to go to the hospital for further investigation.

Elderly people are prone to problems, often say low back pain, which may be a pathological lumbar spine tightening fracture. Maybe you don't dare to move when you turn over your legs, and this condition may be a pathological fracture of the femoral neck.

If the foot is severely deformed and swollen severely, it means that it has been fractured.

If you want to determine whether there is a fracture, you should observe whether you can walk normally, or you can go directly to the hospital for examination, so that the results of the examination are more accurate.

After a foot sprain, if the affected area is particularly painful, suspected of bone cracks, fractures, if the pressure is only mild pain, then it can be considered that there is damage to the cartilage, cartilage damage and new fractures will appear local swelling, swelling and pain, soft tissues (ligaments, cartilage, tendons) are damaged, it is difficult to repair itself, it is generally difficult to find under X-ray, as for the whole hand is numb, it can be considered that the blood stasis inside is not discharged, and the second is caused by nerve injury. It is recommended to take a radiograph to check whether the bone is damaged, if the bone is damaged, first of all, you should actively use medication to treat the symptoms** let the broken bone grow and heal quickly, if it is confirmed that the bone is not damaged under the X-ray, then the pain is caused by cartilage damage, It is recommended to choose traditional Chinese medicine**, because traditional Chinese medicine can help the injured tissue grow rapidly by using drugs, so that it can be very fast**, if you can get a professional**bone traumatic Chinese medicine**, early fracture can generally be basic in about 30 to 40 days**. Soft tissue injuries may take longer.

Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to the sooner **, the better, and the longer the time is delayed**, the more troublesome it is. Before the first diet, avoid eating carp, rooster, sour bamboo shoots, beef and ginger, etc., which is based on experience. Western medicine should be used with caution, especially hormone-containing drugs, and the joints should not be moved too much to avoid aggravating the injury.

There are ways to determine whether it is a sprain or a fracture

1. Whether there is swelling or not, and the degree of swelling, no swelling is generally said to be no fracture; Severe swelling should have a fracture.

2. The degree of pain, the pain of the fracture is severe and severe; The pain of a sprain is moderate or mild.

3. Function: After fracture, you generally can't walk or stand. Sprained, can't walk at first, it will get better later. You can't stand up after a while.

Multiple fractures Fractures are fractures circled in red.
