How to do when the boxing hand is swollen

The swelling of the boxing hand is due to damage to the soft tissues of the hand during boxing, resulting in poor blood circulation. First, you must stop boxing, apply a cold compress locally, elevate the affected limb, and if there is no relief, choose a hot compress for the hand after 24 hours to promote blood circulation, and apply a local ointment that activates blood circulation and relieves swelling and pain. Secondly, if there is no relief within a short period of time and the swelling and pain are progressively aggravated, it is necessary to go to a regular hospital in time to improve the X-ray of the hand to see if there is a combined fracture. If there is a combined fracture of the finger bone, external fixation of the hand in a cast or brace may be required as an adjunctive treatment. During the treatment period, eat a light diet, eat foods with high protein content, do not eat spicy and irritating foods, and review regularly so that complications from swollen hands after boxing can be effectively controlled.
