Patient's question:
What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? How should bruising from being hit be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, first of all, it is recommended to take an X-ray to check if there is a fracture. If there is no fracture, it may be a soft tissue injury. If it is a soft tissue injury, it is recommended to apply cold compresses for the first 3 days after the injury. After 3 days, try applying heat compresses. Otherwise, applying heat compresses in the first few days may worsen bleeding. However, applying heat compresses in the later days can help promote the dissipation of hematoma and edema.Hello, you can take an X-ray to check. Based on X-ray images of the hand and wrist, bone age can be assessed to determine if bone development is advanced. In children with precocious puberty, bone age is generally 1–3 years older than their actual age.
