Patient's question:
A 10-year-old child with a left radial fracture after reduction, which was displaced again after one week of follow-up, how should it be treated? Is surgery necessary? If surgery is not performed, can normal function be restored?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description of your condition, I have a fairly clear understanding. A fracture is a complex condition. It can be caused by poor deformation of the body, calcium deficiency, and overuse. The situation you described may be due to inadequate fixation after reduction. It can be treated with further reduction, manual alignment, and fixation. Children have strong bone plasticity, so the treatment should be based on strict management. It is necessary to change poor postures, avoid prolonged sitting or standing, and engage in more stretching exercises. I suggest you not to be overly anxious and to maintain a healthy and regular lifestyle. Prevent cold, dampness, and excessive tension or overexertion.
