Patient's question:
My daughter is 4 years old. On April 7, 2014, she fell and injured her right hand. After being examined at the hospital, it was diagnosed as a comminuted fracture of the proximal right ulna. She was immobilized with a cast at the hospital.On April 20, she went back to the hospital for a follow-up check-up. X-rays were taken, and the doctor said the bone had not healed properly and had grown crooked. The doctor recommended surgery.
I said I was very conflicted and asked, "Do I really have to have surgery?"
Doctor's answer:
Recheck the X-rays and discuss further! If the X-rays cannot be seen, please upload them for diagnosis. In addition to timely treatment for pediatric fractures, patients need to consult experts frequently and maintain communication with doctors. Patients should also pay attention to nursing aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in more outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should choose a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
