Diet for patients with fractures

In daily life, fractures are easy to occur if you are not careful. Fractures bring great pain to patients and their families. In addition to receiving regular treatment in the hospital, the diet of patients with fractures is also very important. Patients with fractures cannot eat many foods, such as shrimp, leeks, Chinese toon, etc. Eating them will cause the wound to heal slowly, or even cause inflammation and suppuration, causing secondary damage to the fractured patient.

There are also many foods that can help fracture patients heal their wounds faster after eating them. This requires the family members of fracture patients to learn more about this aspect, take good care of the patients' diet, and make the fractures heal as soon as possible, so as to contribute to the family and society.

The principle of diet is light, such as vegetables, eggs, bean products, fruits, fish soup, lean meat juice, etc. Three to four weeks after injury, most of the blood stasis is absorbed, and the fracture is in the middle stage of recovery. The treatment should be harmonious, mainly to relieve pain, remove blood stasis and promote new growth, and connect bones and tendons. The diet changes from light to appropriate high-nutrition supplements to meet the needs of callus growth, supplementing vitamins A, D, calcium and protein. Six to eight weeks after injury. The fracture bruises are basically absorbed, and callus has formed. The treatment should be tonic, by nourishing the liver and kidney, qi and blood, to promote the formation of firm callus, and relax the muscles and activate the collaterals, so that the adjacent joints can move freely and flexibly, and restore the previous function. Taboos can be lifted in diet, and high-nutrition food can be given tonic. Those who can drink can be given Eucommia and Drynaria wine, tiger bone and papaya wine. Diet is only to cooperate with treatment. Grasping the principle that the fracture should be light in the early stage, harmonious and supportive in the middle stage, and tonic in the late stage, choosing appropriate food has a positive effect on promoting fracture healing.

In addition to paying more attention to diet, fracture patients should also exercise more. Since the recovery period of fracture patients is relatively long, as the saying goes, it takes 150 days to heal a broken bone, which is five months. This requires the family members of fracture patients to have enough patience and take good care of the diet of fracture patients so that fracture patients can recover as soon as possible.
