Tui Na massage immediately after a bruise? Many trauma patients have this experience, when they accidentally sprain, the first thing they think of is to apply some safflower oil or active oil and other blood-activating topical medicine, and then ask someone to massage the sprained limb for him/her, thinking that it can relieve the swelling and pain, in fact, this is very wrong. Sprain refers to the soft tissues near the joints, muscles and their accessory structures tendons, fascia and ligaments, etc., which are suddenly and violently strained and cause injury, and lead to a series of clinical symptoms, such as swelling, pain, etc. Within 1-2 days after the sprain, the microscopic blood vessels in the injured area rupture and bleed, causing tissue swelling, such as near the skin, visible bruises and bruises, muscle spasm, hardness to the touch and pain, if at this time immediately massage and apply blood-boosting topical drugs, will aggravate the microscopic blood vessels in the local soft tissue bleeding, while stimulating the muscles of the injured area, further causing muscle Spasm, resulting in increased swelling and pain, thus prolonging the healing of the sprain. What’s more, some serious sprains are often combined with fractures, blind massage and massage will only make the original non-displaced fractures into displaced fractures, which will inevitably complicate the treatment later. After the occurrence of sprains, you should rest according to the actual situation, see a doctor in a timely manner, do cold compresses as soon as possible, then appropriate pressure bandages, elevate the affected limb, so that local vasoconstriction, reduce bleeding and swelling, and relieve pain. Remember not to blindly massage, push and hold, so as not to aggravate the injury. When the local soft tissue bleeding stops after 1-2 days, the swelling is no longer aggravated and the pain is relieved, hot compress can be used instead, and massage and physiotherapy can be carried out at the same time to promote the absorption of hematoma and make the inflammation of trauma subside. If combined with serious ligament rupture, surgery must be performed, otherwise it will cause joint instability, repeated sprains in the future, infringing on the cartilage, which will cause traumatic arthritis in the long run. To prevent sprains, you should actively exercise your body in general, to enhance muscle strength at the same time, exercise coordination and emergency ability. Before strenuous activities, should be prepared activities.
