What should an amputee pay attention to after discharge from the hospital?

 

 

After the amputation, the patient's psychology has been greatly traumatized, and the patient needs to face it correctly. After being discharged from the hospital, it is necessary to correctly guide and actively cooperate with the follow-up treatment.

(1) Protect the wound surface and prevent infection: After amputation, since the ischemia of the affected limb has not been fundamentally resolved, the resistance of the local skin is still very low, which is easy to lead to infection and dermatitis. Therefore, the stump of the affected limb should be scrubbed frequently and kept clean and dry to avoid infection.

(2) Strengthen nutrition and promote rapid recovery of the body: All patients with amputation have experienced a long period of pain and consumption before the amputation, and the body consumes a lot. After amputation, in order to restore physical strength as soon as possible, you should eat more nutrient-rich foods, such as foods high in protein, sugar and vitamins, and should be reasonably allocated to promote the rapid recovery of the body.

(3) Functional exercise: In order to make the body adapt to the disability after amputation as soon as possible, and to create conditions for the fitting of prostheses, post-operative amputation patients should perform functional exercise of the residual limb, such as limb muscle massage, joint flexion and extension activities and necessary outdoor activities. Activity.

(4) Insist on continuing treatment: Amputation is a palliative operation, which only solves the local problems of necrotic limbs, and the causes of limb ischemia and necrosis still exist. Therefore, after the amputation operation, it is necessary to continue the treatment for the primary disease, take medicines on time, and return to the doctor in time to fundamentally relieve the pain.

(5) Patients after amputation can sometimes have phantom pain. This is more common in patients with vascular ischemic disease who have severe pain before amputation. Phantom pain is persistent pain, which is heavier at night than during the day. In addition to the application of analgesics, it is mainly psychotherapy. It is necessary to face up to the existence of the disease, put down the burden, and relieve the pressure. Generally, it can gradually reduce or disappear after 1 to 3 months.
