Hello, according to your description, it can be corrected and treated through surgical methods. Follow a diet that is easy to digest and absorb, increase nutritional supplements, and add vitamins and trace elements. Avoid harmful stimuli.
Hello, it is recommended to seek treatment at a formal hospital. Rest and reduce activity. When resting, elevate the affected limb. Pay attention to moving the toes of the injured foot and the local muscles, which helps promote the establishment of blood circulation and venous return to reduce swelling. Apply Zheng Honghua oil externally. Oral administration of blood-activating and blood-stasis-dispelling medications, such as Sanqi tablets, can also be beneficial.
