Misunderstanding of Ankle Injury in Emergency

Medi-Rehatek will introduce the Misunderstanding of Ankle Injury in Emergency today.

Abstract: 
When you twist your foot,you shouldnt apply hot compress immediately.The bleeding and exudation will increase due to vasodilation.At the same time the swelling and pain also increase . But you can apply hot compress after 24-48 hours in order to allow blood vessels to dilate, after expansion those exuded substances can be re-absorbed back. Thereby it reduces the swelling.

Misconception 

1.Rub the site of ankle swelling, you want to rub the agminated blood to be scattered.

Small local blood vessels rupture and bleeding, that will form a hematoma, it usuallyr recovers after 24 hours. If you rub forcibly and apply hot compress,insist on exercise after your ankle sprains immediately.Blood vessels will expand, that is bound to increase the bleeding and exudation, increasing swelling and pain. Therefore, dont rub your twisted foot within 24 hours.



Misconception 2.  

Promote the blood circulation and reduce swelling with a hot towel

When you twist your foot,you shouldnt apply hot compress immediately. The bleeding and exudation will increase due to vasodilation.At the same time the swelling and pain also increase . But you can apply hot compress after 24-48 hours in order to allow blood vessels to dilate, after expansion those exuded substances can be re-absorbed back. Thereby it reduces the swelling.




Misconception 3: 

Endure to walk,and have activities, want to "keep tendons"

People often say "keep the tendons", in fact, after the injury,the soft tissues have adhesions, and this happens in middle and later phase of the injury.



Misconception 4: 

Apply a plaster immediately

Do not apply a plaster in a short time, otherwise it may increase the symptoms. Specific use should be based on the severity within a certain range. Sustained pain can not be ignored ,you should let the injured muscle to have a rest
