Panax ginseng, as a common Chinese medicine that can activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, can play a better role in preventing hemorrhage and hematoma formation in patients with bone fracture, and can help recover from the condition.
It is worth noting that the use of Panax ginseng and other medicines should follow the doctor’s instructions.
It is not recommended to use Panax ginseng immediately after a fracture, and the best time to start taking Panax ginseng is after 48 hours and within one week of the fracture.
This is due to the fact that within 48 hours of fracture, bleeding at the fracture end is generally more serious, and the use of Panax ginseng may bring about unfavorable consequences such as aggravation of soft-tissue edema, etc. Taking Panax ginseng within one week of fracture can play a better role in hemostasis and dispersal of stasis, and the side-effects are relatively small.
In addition, some special groups such as pregnant women and menstruating patients should use Panax ginseng with caution to avoid serious bleeding.
Patients with bone fracture should take medication under the guidance of professional physicians to recover as soon as possible.
