Babies are active and playful, and accidents can easily happen when they are playing, resulting in fractures. According to statistics, fractures in children account for about 1/3 of orthopedic patients, so parents should learn about fractures and learn the correct way to handle them. How to tell when a baby has a fracture; a baby may have a fracture when any of the following conditions occur There is localized pain and pressure on the baby’s body, and the pain worsens with activity. There is localized swelling and bruising. There is partial or total loss of function of the injured area. In severe cases, the limb may be deformed, such as shortened, twisted, or rotated. Abnormal joint movement occurs, i.e., movement is produced where it should not be. A sound of friction at the broken end of the bone can be heard when moving the injured part. What parents should do at that time after a baby fracture When a baby fracture is suspected, it is important to seek prompt medical attention. In the process of taking the baby to the hospital, pay attention to light and steady movements so as not to aggravate the injury. If the baby has a fractured limb, a board or book should be found to fix the two ends of the fracture; if it is a fracture of the waist or chest and back or ribs, a stretcher should be found and a board placed on the stretcher, or the baby should be taken to the hospital directly with a board to try to be seen and treated as soon as possible. Do not carry or hold the baby to move, otherwise the fracture site may be misaligned and damage the nerves and blood vessels, aggravating the condition or even endangering the baby’s life. If the fracture is suspected to be serious, call 120 emergency number in time and try to send the baby to the hospital in the shortest possible time. While waiting for the emergency personnel to arrive, closely observe whether the baby has symptoms of shock such as pale face, cold sweat, weak pulse, reduced blood pressure, or even coma due to pain and excessive bleeding, and parents should put the baby’s head in a low position and pay attention to keeping the limbs warm. When there is bleeding parents should not sprinkle anti-inflammatory powder, hemostatic powder and other drugs on the wound, or cover the wound with unclean cotton cloth. You may choose to compress the wound to stop the bleeding. Do not choose to bind the limb for a long time to stop bleeding. Sterile gauze or unused towels can be placed over the wound after hemostasis to prevent contamination of the wound during transport. If there is a broken end of bone exposed outside the skin, parents should not move it by themselves, let alone try to incorporate the bone back into the skin and soft tissues by themselves; sterile gauze or unused towels can be used to cover it.
