Severe pain and pressure swelling in the elbow Early and reasonable functional exercises can promote blood circulation in the affected limb, reduce muscle atrophy, maintain muscle strength, prevent joint stiffness and promote fracture healing. Therefore, the limbs that are fixed should all be given proper muscle contraction and relaxation exercises. For joints that are not fixed, the patient should be encouraged to do active functional exercises in a timely manner, and gradually strengthen the weight-bearing exercises when the fracture end has reached clinical healing. In order to promote the recovery of patients with severe pain and pressure swelling in the elbow, the patient’s diet can be based on the early, middle and late stages of fracture healing with different foods according to the development of the disease to promote hematoma absorption or bone scab production. Early stage (1 to 2 weeks): The injured area is stagnant and swollen, the meridians are blocked, and the qi and blood are blocked, so the main treatment in this stage is to activate blood circulation and eliminate stasis, and move the qi and dissipate. The first priority for fracture healing is to reduce swelling and dissipate stasis. In principle, the diet should be light, such as vegetables, eggs, soybean products, fruits, fish soup, lean meat, etc. Avoid eating spicy, hot, sour, greasy and fatty tonic products, such as bone soup, fatty chicken, stewed fish, etc. Otherwise, the stagnation of blood stagnation will delay the course of the disease, delay the growth of bone scabs and affect the recovery of joint function in the future. At this stage, food therapy can be used with 10 grams of Panax ginseng, 10 grams of Angelica sinensis and 1 pigeon, stewed and cooked, with meat and soup together, once a day for 7 to 10 days. In the middle stage (2-4 weeks): The stasis is partially absorbed, and the treatment in this stage is based on harmonizing the camp and relieving pain, eliminating stasis and creating new ones, and connecting bones and tendons. The diet should be changed from light to highly nutritious to meet the needs of bone scab growth. Bone broth, chicken and animal liver can be added to the initial recipes to provide more vitamins A and D, calcium and protein. Later stage (more than 5 weeks): After 5 weeks of injury, the bruises and swelling are basically absorbed and the bone scabs have started to grow, which is the later stage of fracture. It is advisable to treat the fracture by tonifying the liver, kidneys, qi and blood to promote stronger bone scabs, as well as to relax the tendons and activate the joints adjacent to the fracture so that the joints can move freely and regain their former functions. Diet can be released from the taboo, and the recipe can be supplemented with old hen soup, pork bone soup, sheep bone soup, stewed water fish, etc.
