Treatment of abdominal distension in lumbar compression fractures

If the patient has a fracture of the lumbar vertebrae, it may cause abdominal distension. According to the principle after a fracture of the lumbar vertebrae, it may stimulate the nerves in front of the vertebrae, and these nerves, if stimulated, may cause slowing down of gastrointestinal peristalsis, which may in turn cause internal distension in the gastrointestinal tract. If this occurs, gastrointestinal decompression or enema can be taken to achieve gastrointestinal intrathecal paralysis, or medication to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis can be used as an adjunctive treatment. Some external treatments of traditional Chinese medicine, such as acupoint plasters or tuina, acupuncture, etc., also have good adjuvant therapeutic effects on such complications, and such bloating has a gradual relief within 1-2 weeks. The general treatment is the early need to pay attention to diet, eat well-digested food, eat small meals, and the use of kaiser, etc., hot compresses on the abdomen or oral compound aloe vera capsules, with the passage of time, the condition stabilizes, and the absorption of retroperitoneal hematoma will slowly improve.
