Fractures
Fractures, or broken bones, are a common injury that can occur due to falls, accidents, sports injuries, and other traumas. Fractures can range in severity from mild to severe and require prompt medical attention.
Symptoms of fractures include:
Pain
Swelling
Bruising
Deformity
Difficulty moving in the affected area.
In severe cases, the bone may protrude through the skin, causing an open fracture.
Treatment options for fractures includes:
Immobilization with a cast, brace, or splint: to allow the bone to heal properly.
Necessary surgery in severe cases: to realign the bone and stabilize it with metal plates, screws, or rods.
Class 4 LASER THERAPY for fractures:
One study published in Lasers in Medical Science found that Class 4 Laser Therapy significantly reduced pain and improved healing in patients with wrist fractures. Another study published in Photomedicine and Laser Surgery showed similar results in promoting healing and reducing pain in patients with tibial fractures.
Overall, Class 4 Laser Therapy is a safe and effective treatment option for fractures. By stimulating cellular activity and promoting tissue repair, it provides rapid relief from pain and leads to faster recovery times and improved overall function.
In conclusion, fractures can be a serious and painful injury, but with proper medical care and treatment, most people can make a full recovery. Class 4 Laser Therapy offers a non-invasive and effective way to reduce pain and promote healing associated with fractures, making it a valuable tool in managing this common injury.
