post fracture swelling and pain
Does anyone have any ideas about what causes swelling after fractures (not in the immediate post fracture period, but in the following months to years) ? And why do some patients still report pain around united fractures years afterwards? Does anyone have any ideas on treating such problems (other than generallt strengthening the surrounding muscles)?
re: post fracture swelling and pain
better go thru' the pathology of inflamation . " in short whenever there is a distruction of tissue And repair goes on (even at remoulding stage) until it completes the process there will be swelling gendrally they say it will be there for 3 months for simple # .
in INDIA we use to give wax bath at this time b'cause it also reduces the swelling and improves circulation & so on and it is only on closed type of fracture .
