Treatment of compound fracture

  1. The broken limb should be straightened very carefully.
  2. If the patient becomes unconscious, the mouth should be cleaned.
  3. The patient’s pulse should be checked.
  4. The patient’s blood pressure should be determined.
  5. The patient should take Aspirin or Diclofenac tablets on a full stomach to reduce pain.
  6. Doctor’s advice should be taken.

Treatment of common fractures

1. The exact location and extent of the fracture must be identified.
2. The broken limb should be straightened very carefully.
3. Broken parts cannot be pulled.
4. In case of fracture in the upper part of the body, the patient should lie down and in case of fracture in the lower part, the patient should be seated.
5. Keep the wound clean.
6. Ice can be applied.
7. Wear loose clothing to keep blood circulation normal.
8. The broken parts should be fixed with splints or splints.
9. Blood flow should be checked.
10. The fractured limb should be elevated 6-10 inches.
11. The patient should take painkillers.
12. Doctor’s advice should be taken.

Simple fracture । Definition, symptoms and treatment of Simple fracture

If the fracture remains inside the flesh and does not come out, it is called a simple fracture. If the bone is bent, it is called a greenstick fracture. In this case, the broken part should be bandaged. However, surgery is not required. It heals within 8 weeks.

Common fracture symptoms
1. The injured area swells.
2. Movement of the affected limb causes pain.
3. A needle-like pain is felt in the injured area.
4. There is great pain.
5. Cannot lift slightly heavy objects.
6. Hands and feet become numb.
7. Changes in the shape of the joints of the hands or feet.
8. The patient may become unconscious.

Lever । Definition, components and types of lever

The interaction between bone and muscle during arm or leg movement is called lever. The force used to move the bone is called the fulcrum. Muscles exert tension or force during skeletal movement. The point of the lever where the force is applied is called the effort arm and the point where the force is attenuated is called the resistance arm.

The components of the lever are four.
1. Rods or bars
2. Falcrum or Pivot – Rods act on it
3. Load or object – It moves against the force
4. Ball – It provides the force in the movement of the rods.

Classification of Lever
Livers are divided into three categories.
1. First class lever: The lever which has the falcrum between the load and the ball is called the first class lever. The 1st vertebra of the spine joins with the human crown to form the first class liver. Due to this lever, the head can be rotated forward, backward, up and down.
2. Second class lever: The lever where the weight is between the falcrum and the ball is called second class lever. Class 2 levers are formed when the heel is raised by resting on the toes. Because of this lever one can run fast.
3. Third class lever: The lever where the ball is between the falcrum and the load is called the third class lever. 3rd class lever is formed when an object is lifted by hand. Due to this lever, more weight can be lifted with less force.
