Should a 90-year-old man have an operation for his thigh bone fracture?

Whether a fracture requires surgery depends on the fracture. If the fracture is not serious, Chinese medicine treatment only needs manual reduction and then splint external fixation. Splint fixation doesn't cost a penny. If the fracture is serious, you can consider surgical plate internal fixation, and then use traditional Chinese medicine external application to quickly fracture. Because the patient is older, surgery is generally not recommended, and family members should be cautious.

If it is just an ordinary fracture, the early fracture can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine. Generally, the pain can be basically relieved and the swelling can gradually subside after about 7 days of medication. A 55-year-old person can basically resume normal life activities after taking the medicine for about 45 days. You can also see that the corpus callosum is in good shape by taking pictures. According to the x-ray,

If western medicine is used to treat fractures, plaster external fixation or surgical plate, steel nail internal fixation and bracket external fixation are generally used. After the operation, some anti-inflammatory, analgesic, blood circulation promoting and blood stasis removing drugs may be given, and then a long rest and waiting. This treatment is very slow.

If it is fast, it will grow well in half a year, and if it is slow, it will take a year, but some of them have not fully recovered in one year. How long the old man needs to rest before he can recover varies from person to person.

No matter what kind of tissue injury, the principle of treatment is the same. Only by allowing the injured tissue to grow rapidly can it be healed. The focus of treatment is not fixed, rest and diet, but to make it grow rapidly. Only let the broken bone grow and heal in a short time, this is the focus of treatment. How long it takes for the fracture to return to normal activities depends on the treatment method you choose.

Before the fracture is not healed, avoid eating carp, rooster, sour bamboo shoots, ginger and high-calcium and high-protein foods. This is the result of experience. Western medicine should be used with caution, especially drugs containing hormones. It is not advisable to exercise too early, so as not to aggravate the injury.

Orthopedics will recover soon, and I wish you a speedy recovery.
