The back of my hand hurts.

In daily life, we often encounter many bumps and injuries, which is inevitable. Generally, minor injuries are just abrasions. Severe injuries can also cause fractures, sprained ankles, sprained hands, etc. We must pay attention to this in our lives. What should you do if you accidentally get hit on the back of your hand? If the condition is very serious, you should go to the hospital for treatment immediately. Let's take a look at the treatment methods.

1. Apply cold compress immediately after injury to relieve pain. For example, when we see athletes injured in Olympic events or NBA games, medical staff will immediately apply something to the injured area, which is actually ice.

At home, you can dip a towel in water and put it in the freezer of the refrigerator. When it becomes slightly hard, you can take it out and apply it directly to the painful area. But injuries usually occur suddenly, so wrap ice cubes from the refrigerator in a towel and apply it. Apply it every three or four hours for more than ten minutes each time, and apply cold compress on the day of injury.

The next day after applying cold compress to an injury, you should change to hot compress. If the injured area is still swollen, hot compress should not be used. Hot compress means applying a hot towel in summer or a hot water bag in winter to the injured area for more than ten minutes, twice a day, to speed up blood circulation in the injured area.

2. Injuries are very common in life, but in many cases, families habitually apply safflower oil after the injury, and apply it vigorously, or apply a hot towel, or use the folk method of spitting to rub. These practices are actually unscientific. Not only are they not conducive to recovery, they may also make the condition worse.

3. It is recommended to use Yunnan Baiyao aerosol, which can promote blood circulation, disperse blood stasis, reduce swelling and relieve pain. Used for bruises, blood stasis, swelling and pain, muscle aches and rheumatic joint pains. Eat some light food.

4. If the back of the hand is hit and there is pain and inability to move, there is a high possibility of a hand or wrist fracture. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for an X-ray to see if you have any fractures to avoid delaying treatment. Also, pay attention to rest, keep warm and eat a light diet.

5. May cause. The purpose of tenosynovitis treatment is to relieve pain and inflammation and restore limb function, including rest, immobilization, and hot compresses on the affected area. Drug treatment includes oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics and external anti-inflammatory analgesic ointments. Physical therapy (such as laser or ultrasound and stretching exercises), etc. In addition, for some patients, local injection of steroids may also have a good therapeutic effect. If the above methods are ineffective, surgery can be considered to remove the stenotic tenosynovium.
