Nursing Report on Combined Treatment with Chinese Herbal Cold Compress and Herbal Pack for Postoperative Swelling and Pain in a Case of Tibiofibular Fracture
This report analyzes a nursing case of a patient with significant postoperative swelling and pain in the affected limb following open reduction and internal fixation for a right tibiofibular fracture. On the basis of conventional orthopedic nursing care, an innovative intervention combining Chinese herbal cold compress and herbal packing—a distinctive Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) technique—was applied. Through precise nursing assessment, individualized treatment implementation, and dynamic efficacy evaluation, the patient exhibited significant alleviation of swelling and pain, favorable recovery of joint function, and reduced hospitalization duration. This case demonstrates the unique advantages of TCM nursing techniques in postoperative orthopedic rehabilitation, with notable clinical efficacy and potential for broader application.
