Fingers are connected to the heart. If a finger is crushed, it will cause great pain to the person's body and mind. In severe cases, purple blood will appear on the injured part of the finger, which is congestion. Whether it is the symptoms of pain or purple blood, certain methods need to be taken to deal with it, otherwise it will bring more serious effects to the injured. So, what are some ways to deal with a pinched finger? More details will be introduced below! Method 1 When the pain is severe, it may be difficult to tell whether it is a tendon injury or a fracture. At this time, you can apply cold compress to relieve pain, but never rub or pull the injured area. Method 2 Check the local area. If the fingers are swollen and tender, use cold water or ice packs (put ice cubes in a plastic bag) for cold compresses in the early stages. If local hematoma is formed (commonly subungual hematoma), apply cold compress for 2-3 days and then change to hot compress to promote the absorption of subcutaneous blood stasis. If the wound is shallow and small after squeezing with your fingers, you can clean it with cold boiled water, disinfect it with alcohol, and then wrap it with a Band-Aid. Method 3 In addition to cold compresses and bandages, be sure to disinfect the damaged skin. If the injured part hangs down, it will easily cause congestion, which will make the pain worse. Hanging your arms around your neck with a triangular bandage will make you feel more comfortable. Method 4 If there is a serious skin rupture, it should be bandaged with clean gauze as soon as possible and then go to the hospital for surgical treatment. Most of these injuries require debridement and suturing, intramuscular injection of tetanus antitoxin (TAT), and anti-infection treatment. Method 5 If purple bruises or swelling appear, or if finger movement becomes difficult, the finger may be fractured. Go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time to prevent the injured finger from becoming necrotic due to excessive local pressure. For nail stripping and open fractures after squeezing, bandage the injured limb with a clean dressing or handkerchief, and then suspend it in front of the chest with a triangular bandage. This will help relieve pain and stop bleeding, and then send the patient to the hospital for treatment immediately. Method 6 Young children cannot describe their symptoms themselves, so it is difficult to judge the extent of the injury. If the baby keeps crying, it means the pain is severe. If the swelling is severe, it may be a fracture. At this time, do not move the injured part and take him to the hospital immediately. |
