How to reduce swelling and relieve pain when my foot is scratched

Normal people walk tens of thousands of steps every day, so everyone must wear a pair of comfortable shoes, which can not only reduce fatigue, but also avoid falls and sprains. On the contrary, walking quickly with inappropriate shoes may cause injuries to the feet. Especially after the foot is scratched, it must be treated in time, otherwise it will cause severe swelling and pain. So how to reduce swelling and relieve pain after the foot is scratched?

First, how to reduce swelling and relieve pain when your foot is scraped? Apply ice to the swollen area and you will feel much better after a good night's sleep. If bruising occurs, don't be nervous, roll a hot egg on the swollen area. It is super effective, I have used it personally. If you do nothing, generally if the bruise is not very serious, it will be healed in about a week. If it is very serious, it will take about 2 weeks. It is purple at first, and then dark blue. When it is dark blue, the blood clot will spread and appear, because it begins to dissolve. Then it disappears. If there is anything else that is not right, it is best to see a doctor.

Second, the soles of the feet have many acupuncture points and capillaries, so the recovery process is slower. Don't worry too much, don't force yourself to do strenuous exercise, and also pay attention to rest. Soak in hot water or apply hot compress to the affected area for 15-20 minutes every day. The bandage must not be too tight, which will affect blood circulation. Your ankle may be swollen again for this reason. Try to raise your feet higher than your waist, don't sit for a long time, and raise your feet about 10cm when sleeping, which will help reduce swelling and prevent edema. Use the medicine according to the instructions. Panax notoginseng tablets or capsules, safflower oil, and Yunnan Baiyao are recommended. Keeping a good mood will definitely be good for the injury. That's all. Be sure not to do strenuous exercise, don't force yourself to do any movements, and rest.

How to reduce swelling and relieve pain when your foot is scratched? If it is just a scratch on the outer skin and the wound is not deep, then don't worry too much. Local swelling is normal due to the inflammatory reaction caused by tissue injury. You can disinfect it with iodine, then bandage it with sterile gauze, and change the dressing regularly. Some Chinese patent medicines have the effect of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis and reducing swelling. You can use them. I believe the swelling will go down and heal soon. Be careful not to let the wound get wet or come into contact with unclean things to avoid infection.
