Dislocation of foot symptoms

Dislocations are divided into several species. But despite this, the main signs are similar. Characteristic symptoms of dislocation are such factors: acute pain, swelling of the ankle and foot, deformation of the foot (obvious changes, the leg becomes wider and visually - shorter), the color of the skin of the sore spot changes, and bruises appear.

What to do

If the foot is dislocated, it is necessary to confirm the diagnosis by making an X-ray. Your trauma should be handled by a specialist: traumatologist or surgeon. The doctor will definitely fix the foot. Then he will prescribe a treatment that will depend directly on the type of dislocation. In many cases, you can not do without gypsum. If the foot does not need a cast, then they will prescribe treatment with ointments, it may be necessary to drink anesthetizing puffiness.
Do not rule out the treatment of folk remedies. You can remove the pain with lavender oil. For effective healing, make compresses of sugar with a rubbed onion.

First aid with dislocation of foot

If you got injured and formed edema, the foot swelled, a little darkened and there is a sharp pain, it is most likely a dislocation. If the foot is dislocated, it is necessary to stop moving the limb, do not try to develop it, fix it in one position. For fixation, an elastic bandage is used, if there is no such possibility, use improvised materials: things, linen, bags. Try to find a cold that can be applied to the leg. You can buy any frozen product in the store, use a bottle from the refrigerator and go to the doctor's office, not on foot. Take a taxi, ask someone to take me to the hospital, call an ambulance.

Dislocation or stretching of the foot - how to determine

1. If we talk about the extension of the first degree, then the obvious differences from dislocation are the drawing pain without the formation of hematomas and tumors. When dislocation, such symptoms do not make you wait long.
2. With the extension of the second degree, these signs become characteristic, but it is worth paying attention to the appearance of the leg. The foot does not deform, as it happens during dislocation. It does not expand and does not become shorter (visually), which is peculiar to dislocations.
3. Stretching of the third degree differs by strong pain sensations, from which dizziness is possible. With each movement, the pain is exacerbated. If you still have a small click when you are moving, call an ambulance, perhaps this is a gap. When the dislocation is felt numbness, and not an increase in pain symptoms.
