Question
On April 26, 2017, a child accidentally injured their left arm while playing, resulting in pain at the elbow and inability to move it. After an X-ray examination by the local doctor confirmed no fracture, it was determined to be a sprain, and it was advised that the child rest at home without medication. However, by May 18, 2017, the child’s elbow still could not bend on its own, and they could only lift their arm upwards.
Answer
Hello, soft tissue damage to a child’s elbow is a common condition that usually causes pain and swelling. It is recommended to use Yunnan Baiyao spray for treatment, along with traditional Chinese medicine such as Dida pills or Sanqi injury medicine tablets. At the same time, attention should be paid to rest, avoiding fatigue and catching a cold. We know that timely and correct treatment is crucial for pediatric neurorehabilitation, as this disease progresses rapidly. If not treated promptly or the treatment method is incorrect, it can cause significant harm to the child. Therefore, parents should closely monitor their child’s condition and seek treatment in a timely manner.
