Especially for the elderly, there are often falls and bruises that cause fractures. So, what is the difference in the care and treatment of fractures compared to people with normal blood sugar? In fact, the most critical issue is to be careful of wounds that do not heal, whether they are fractures or fractures caused by surgery. Like fracture surgery often do fixed, such as a large cast, then in such a sealed environment, the wound has the risk of infection does not heal. First, a hundred days after the injury, the patient needs to be bedridden for a long time after the fracture, the activity will be much less, which is not conducive to the regulation of blood sugar, blood and blood lipids, etc., which is not good for the overall health of the body. Second, the wound of diabetic patients should be frequently observed, regular disinfection of the, after fixation to a good long period of time can not see the situation of the wound, we have had patients when opened after fixation, the wound has been infected powerful. Especially in the summer, the development is faster. Third, the dressing will form a confined environment, in which case it will be conducive to the growth and reproduction of anaerobic bacteria in the wound, and the germs will erode more healthy tissue, which will be more difficult to control later. Third, the risk of non-healing bone ends. If the bone does not heal well, the chance of infecting the bone in case of wound infection increases, and if it is serious, the inflammatory tissue is likely to spread along the bone, causing a higher risk of osteomyelitis. Therefore, it is really complicated to take care of a fracture after it occurs, so you must be aware of it, and it is necessary to do an examination if you feel abnormal at the wound to avoid delaying it into a serious infection. Finally, I personally recommend visiting a specialized diabetic foot specialist, such as our hospital’s multidisciplinary center, which also has orthopedic and surgical surgeons, to effectively reduce the risk of infection with the cooperation of the trauma surgeon.
