Patient's question:
A friend of mine recently encountered this situation and was hospitalized at the hospital for a period of time. I visited him, and he said he was a little painful and couldn't sleep at night, which greatly affected his state. How should I take care of a child with a fracture?Doctor's answer:
After the child is put in a cast, the following nursing care should be taken: The child should elevate the affected limb, the purpose of which is to reduce or prevent swelling in the affected limb. At the same time, to prevent insects from crawling into the cast, the child's skin and debris that fall into the cast should be cleaned frequently. According to the condition and doctor's requirements, the child should be turned over at regular intervals. The diet should include more calcium-rich foods.
