How to treat athlete’s injury and fracture by diet

Because of the long-term exercise, the athletes’ tissues and organs are in a state of tension for a long time, so they are prone to sports diseases, and the most common of these sports diseases are injuries and fractures. If the athletes have the above two situations, they should not only suffer from physical pain, but also from mental torture. In fact, as long as athletes pay attention to their own safety in daily training and competition, they can well avoid injuries and fractures. Of course, if the accident has happened, don’t worry. In addition to cooperating with the doctor’s treatment, you can also take care of it through medicated diet.

The so-called injury mainly refers to the pain caused by a strong twisting, pulling and pressing or external violent impact of a certain organ of the human body, as well as the accidental falling and flapping. It can be divided into sprain and contusion. Sprain is often found in the joints with more activities, such as the joints of limbs and the waist. Contusion refers to the trauma caused by direct external force or impact on the body surface, which is caused by the skin and flesh being scratched lightly. It is common in the head and trunk, while the severe one will have visceral injury. So how can we treat it with medicated diet?

First, the general damage has the phenomenon of qi stagnation and blood stasis. You can eat some foods with the functions of  promoting blood circulation, eliminating blood stasis and relieving pain, such as Panax notoginseng, rose, crab, rape, eggplant, scallion, orange peel, hawthorn, etc.

Second, if the injury lasts for a long time, it is likely to be accompanied by deficiency syndrome. At this time, we should eat more food for liver and kidney, such as chicken, beef, pork, mutton, rabbit, grape, black bean, etc.
