What does a minor fracture mean?

Minor fracture generally refers to incomplete fracture or fracture without dislocation or displacement, with fracture line visible on X-ray and no obvious displacement of the fracture break. 1. For the treatment of minor fracture, conservative treatment is usually adopted, and immobilization with plaster or splint for about 4 to 6 weeks is sufficient. Patients with pain can take anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs such as Loxoprofen sodium tablets and diclofenac sodium enteric-coated tablets. Local physical therapy can also be used to promote blood circulation and reduce local swelling. 2. Conservative treatment: review the X-ray film in 4-6 weeks, if the fracture line is blurred, remove the external fixation, and actively carry out functional joint exercises to restore joint function. After the fracture occurs, we should consult the doctor in time and carry out the treatment under the doctor’s guidance. Usually let the patient pay attention to rest, avoid excessive activities, so as not to affect the fracture healing.
