What should I do if I always fall when I freeze on the road in snowy days?

Every time after heavy snow, because the road surface is slippery, the number of patients with falls and fractures in major hospitals will increase, among which children, the elderly, women and cyclists are the most. Ruan Dike, Director of Orthopedics Department of Navy General Hospital, made the following suggestions for everyone to travel, exercise and save themselves in snowy days:

Walk slowly, take your hands out of your pockets and try to wear flat shoes.

Take the sidewalk in case you fall.

On snowy days, people should walk on the sidewalk instead of the motorway to prevent being hit by a skidding car; Don't walk too fast. You'd better wear non-slip shoes or sports shoes instead of hard plastic shoes. If you suddenly fall, try not to support the ground with your wrists, because this falling posture is the most likely to cause arm fractures. Once you fall and break, don't rub around. Fix the fracture site with scarves, books and other tools, ask others for help, and go to a nearby hospital for treatment immediately.

Try not to put your hands in your pockets when you walk, because if you walk with your hands in your pockets, it's easy to fall down because of the slippery road and cause physical injury. However, if you swing your arms when you walk, it is easy to keep your balance when you accidentally slip.

Generally, fractures after slipping are mostly concentrated in wrists, ankles, coccyx and lumbar vertebrae. In rainy and snowy weather, once you feel that you are about to fall, you should quickly squat down to lower your body center of gravity and reduce the impact when you slip. Don't rush to get up after falling, first look at whether your thighs, waist or wrists hurt.

If you have back pain, don't walk around at will, because if you walk around at will after lumbar fracture, it is likely to cause joint dislocation, and in severe cases, it may lead to paralysis of lower limbs.

On snowy days, when going up and down stairs, it is best to hold the railing of the stairs with your hands to prevent you from falling. And when going up and down the stairs, keep your body's center of gravity, and then move your other foot after your foot stands firm.

You can't put your hands in your pockets. You can keep your hands balanced outside. If you fall, you can support them with your hands, so it is not easy to break your legs. After all, the trauma of upper limbs is better handled than the trauma of lower limbs, and it is better after recovery.

On snowy days, because the road is slippery, it is best to wear non-slip shoes when preparing to go out. The soles of non-slip shoes have deep lines, and they can hold the ground tightly when walking, with little or no slippage.

If you ride a bicycle or an electric car on a snowy day, check whether the brakes are out of order before going out. Drive at a low speed after going on the road; Don't ride a bike on the floor tiles that are easy to freeze and slide; Don't grab the road with motor vehicles, so as not to be injured by sideslip motor vehicles; On roads with thick snow or thin ice, it is best to get off and walk.

In some communities, for the sake of beauty, the ground is paved with marble. On snowy days, when walking, try to avoid the marble floor. Because marble itself is smooth, when there is ice on it, pedestrians walk on the marble floor and fall easily. In some communities, for the sake of beauty, the ground is paved with marble.

Lean forward slightly when walking, such as skiing.

Walk with your feet shoulder-width apart. This makes the chassis large and the center of gravity stable.

Walk with a small stride. It's easy to fall down when striding.

When walking, try to walk in the snow, not in crowded places, which is easy to freeze and slide.

According to experts, the lower the temperature, the higher the incidence of acute myocardial infarction and stroke. When you go out on snowy days, you should pay attention to cold and warmth, and you must wear a hat, scarf and gloves. When the snow melts, the weather is particularly cold, and patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should reduce going out.

On snowy days, for office workers, in order to prevent slipping, they should try to take the bus to and from work instead of riding bicycles, electric cars and motorcycles to prevent accidents. For people with private cars, if they are not skilled in driving, try to commute by bus to prevent accidents.

Try to arrange it in the afternoon.

Because the peak of cardiovascular disease is generally concentrated at 6 am to 12 noon. Therefore, this kind of people should reduce outdoor activities in snowy days, even if they exercise in the afternoon, pay attention to adding clothes. After warming up, they will reduce their clothes appropriately. After the exercise, you should dry your sweat and put on your clothes immediately.

On snowy days, there is nothing special to prevent falling. Try to avoid going out, especially the elderly with osteoporosis. In snowy days, it is best to take it at home, because the road outside is slippery, and if there is a wrestling phenomenon when walking, it is likely to lead to the occurrence of fractures, while the elderly generally heal slowly after fractures occur.

Generally, fractures after snow are mostly concentrated in ankle, coccyx and lumbar spine. Experts suggest that don't rush to get up after falling, first look at whether you hurt your thigh, waist or wrist. Generally, the thighs and wrist fracture are light, and people can hardly move; If you have back pain, don't walk around at will, because if you walk around at will after lumbar fracture, it is likely to cause joint dislocation, and in severe cases, it may lead to paralysis of lower limbs. At this time, you should call for help as soon as possible, and rescuers should not carry the injured on their backs at will. Instead, the injured should be carried to the hospital with a hard board, or call 120 or 999 for emergency assistance from professional medical staff.

If you fall forward, when you feel that your body is out of balance and you are about to fall, you should immediately bend your body to lower your center of gravity, and immediately imagine yourself as a ball and roll forward.

If it is a backflip, you should land on the ground with your arms and muscles, and at the same time, your feet should go up with the trend, and use the reaction force of the ground to the arms and muscles to reduce the impact on the body.

If you fall sideways, you can use the arm muscles on the side of the fall to land, and at the same time, your feet will go up with the trend to reduce the impact on your body.

Its principle is simple, the key is to imagine yourself as a ball at the moment of falling, and then roll with the trend. This is because when landing in a spherical position, the contact area between the body and the ground is the smallest, so the damage to the body is also the smallest.

Special reminder: this set of movements should also be carefully imitated. It is suggested that you can ensure safe practice under the supervision of a sports coach at ordinary times, and use it after practice makes perfect to prevent problems before they happen.

In addition, in rainy and snowy days, we should try to wear shoes with good anti-slip, and women should try to avoid wearing high heels, relax their hands when walking, and walk slowly in small steps.

Four types of people are most prone to fracture after snow:

First, children, having snowball fights in the snow, slipped and fell to varying degrees after running too fast;

Second, the elderly, the bones of the elderly become loose, and they may fall into fractures with a little carelessness;

Third, young women wearing high heels, walking in the snow in high heels, the soles are easy to slip and fall;

Fourth, men riding bicycles, the road surface is smooth in ice and snow weather, and bicycles and motorcycles are easy to slip and fall, thus encountering accidents.

Osteoporosis is also one of the main causes of fracture. Share with you an ancestral therapeutic prescription for kneepad, which can dispel wind and remove dampness, strengthen bones and activate collaterals, promote blood circulation and dredge collaterals, and protect joints.
