Patient's question:
I accidentally fell while wearing high heels, and the result was quite serious. I would like to ask the doctor for advice. This is a heel bone fracture, and surgery was performed with steel plates added. What should I pay attention to compared to usual? Could you also tell me something about dietary aspects?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is a fracture of the foot that has been fixed with a steel plate. It is recommended to pay attention to proper rest during the early stages of treatment. The fractured area should avoid bearing weight. In terms of diet, it is advisable to consume more calcium-rich foods and vitamin-rich foods, while avoiding spicy and irritating foods. This will help in the gradual recovery after the fracture. It will be necessary to gradually recover for a period of time before undergoing a follow-up examination at the hospital.
