🚑 Fracture First Aid Essentials
The first few minutes after an injury are important. Proper first aid may help reduce further damage until medical care is available.
✔ Immobilize the injured area
✔ Apply ice with a cloth barrier
✔ Move the patient carefully
✔ Seek medical attention for severe pain, swelling, or deformity
❌ Avoid massaging the injured area
❌ Do not try to reposition the bone yourself
❌ Avoid applying heat immediately after injury
If you suspect a fracture, consult a qualified orthopedic specialist for proper evaluation and treatment.
