Symptoms
- Sprains: swelling, intense pain in the articulation
- Fractures: swelling, numbness, pain, inability to move affected area, exit of the bone from the skin, deformity, paleness, nauseas or faintness.
Treatment
In both cases, immobilize the area. With sprains, elevate the affected area up to the height of the heart. Apply ice for 20 minutes, every 4 hours for 2 days.
Medicinal plants
For fractures, use congona.
Nourishment, vitamins and minerals
- Drink a lot of fresh and raw vegetable juice.
- Apply an apple vinegar compress until pain or swelling diminishes.
- For fractures, increase your consumption of calcium, magnesium, zinc, phosphorous, potassium and vitamin D, K and C. For sprains, take vitamin E, C, selenium and zinc.
- Eat half a pineapple a day until fracture is healed.
- Avoid red meats, sodas with caffeine and food with any preservatives.

In case of pregnancy or nursing, do not follow any treatment without medical supervision. If you suspect you have a fracture, go to the doctor immediately. If the injury is in the wrist or ankle, take an X ray. To avoid sprains, stretch and warm up before any exercise.
