Patient's question:
Child fractures at the age of 3Doctor's answer:
Some people may experience certain sequelae after a fracture.Symptoms: During weather changes, the previously fractured area may cause persistent pain or itching. Occasionally, aching may occur, and the fractured area may feel cold and sensitive to wind, leading to severe discomfort. Some may experience general fatigue, especially at the original fracture site. These symptoms can also be felt during overcast or rainy days.
Generally, the pain lasts for 1–2 days and resolves naturally. At times, the pain may be intermittent, with aching or tingling sensations, but it is not a continuous discomfort lasting for several days.
Advice: If the symptoms are severe or adverse reactions are noticeable, it is important to seek medical attention promptly to prevent the condition from developing into rheumatism, which would be more difficult to treat. Therefore, proper care should be taken for a considerable period after the fracture. Avoid getting cold, exposure to wind, or contact with water. Ensure warmth and insulation at the fractured area, and strictly follow the doctor's guidance to strengthen functional exercise and strive for early recovery.
