How can older adults prevent tongue fractures?

  Tongue fractures often occur more in the elderly, their body bones are more fragile, if they encounter unexpected situations, often resulting in physical damage, tongue fractures, but do not pay much attention to their bodies, not to check, and eventually developed into a more serious disease. We should pay more attention in ordinary life, especially our own friends suffering from tongue fracture, early treatment, under the professional guidance of doctors, good rehabilitation training, so that your body recovers as soon as possible, faster recovery of health. The heel fracture is the most common among tarsal fractures, accounting for about 60% of all tarsal fractures. Most of them are caused by vertical impact on the heel after falling from a high place and landing on the foot.  1. Longitudinal fractures of the heel tuberosity are mostly caused by a fall from a height, landing on the bottom of the tuberosity with the heel turned out, and shearing external force on the medial elevation of the tuberosity. It is seldom displaced and generally does not require treatment.  2, the heel nodule level (beak-shaped) fracture is a kind of Achilles tendon avulsion fracture. If the avulsion bone is small, it does not affect the function of Achilles tendon. If the fracture piece is more than 1/3 of the node, and there is rotation and serious tilt, or serious upward pull, it can be repositioned surgically and fixed with screws.  3, heel talus fracture is caused by the impact of the talus inside the talus when the foot is turned inward, which is very rare. If there is displacement, the thumb can be used to push it back to the original position and fix it with a short leg cast for 4 to 6 weeks.  4.Fracture of the front end of the heel bone is less common. The mechanism of injury is strong pronation of the forefoot plus plantarflexion. X-ray oblique films should be taken to exclude the fracture of the anterior superior heel process laceration, and the short leg cast should be fixed for 4-6 weeks.  5.The fracture close to the heel talonavicular joint is a fracture of the heel body, and the mechanism of injury is also caused by a fall of the heel from a high place, or the heel is subjected to a counter-impact force from below upward. The fracture line is oblique, and on the frontal view of the X-ray, the fracture line is oblique from the inside to the outside, but not through the heel talar joint surface. In the axial view, the heel body is widened on both sides because of the osteophyte nature of the heel bone; in the lateral view, the posterior half of the heel body is displaced posteriorly along with the heel tuberosity, causing the abdomen of the heel bone to protrude into a rocking chair shape toward the center of the foot.
