Fracture refers to the complete or partial break of the continuity of the bone structure. It is more common in children and the elderly, and it also occurs in young and middle-aged people. Patients often have fractures in one part, and a few have multiple fractures. After timely and appropriate treatment, most patients can restore their original functions, and a few patients may have sequelae of varying degrees. There are three main reasons for fractures:

1. Direct violence

Violence directly acts on a certain part of the bone and causes a fracture in that part, causing a fracture in the injured part, often accompanied by soft tissue injuries of varying degrees. If the wheel hits the calf, a fracture of the tibia and fibula diaphysis occurs at the impact site.

2. Indirect violence

Indirect violence is caused by longitudinal conduction, leverage or torsion to cause fractures at a distance. For example, when the foot falls from a height to the ground, the trunk flexes sharply forward due to gravity, and the vertebral body at the junction of the thoracolumbar spine becomes compressed or Burst fracture.

3. Accumulative strain injury

Long-term, repeated, and minor direct or indirect injuries can cause a specific part of the limb to fracture, also known as fatigue fracture. For example, long-distance walking can easily cause fractures of the second and third metatarsals and the lower 1/3 of the fibula.

What foods should patients with fracture eat?

• 1.Fracture patients should eat more vitamin C-rich vegetables such as tomatoes, vegetables, greens, cabbage, carrot L, etc., to promote the growth of fibrous bone 65 and wound healing.

• 2.Fracture patients Fracture patients need to supplement zinc, iron, manganese and other trace elements. Some of these elements are involved in the formation of enzymes in the body's metabolic activities, and some are the raw materials for the synthesis of collagen and myoglobin. After determination, the serum concentration of the above substances in the patient's body decreased significantly after the fracture.

• 3.Patients with fractures should also eat more vegetables containing more fiber, eat bananas, honey, etc. to promote bowel movements.
