Answer:

Walking

Explanation:

When someone has a hip fracture, recovery is focused on allowing that person to recover the movements that allow the body to walk. For this reason, after stabilizing the bones compromised by the fracture and the patient has reestablished the balance, the doctor would indicate a light and slow walk so that the movements could be relearned slowly and without forcing the muscles and bones in recovery.

Answer:

Walking

Explanation:

After reduction in hip fracture and immobilizing bones, doctor would definitely advise woman to do walk as soon as she would be able to do so. Walking exercise is important to recover fully. Initially rising from chair and small walks of few steps should be carried out so that joint do not bear more burden as they are fragile initially. However, after few months some climbing steps and outdoor walks would be beneficial for the patient. After such injuries, long bed rest can take you to longer recovery and other health issues too, so to keep life moving you should move and build all that up again as soon as possible.

NAIL IN FOOT:
If your foot wound is bleeding from the nail, put a towel over it to stop the bleeding. Then use water to clean the wound. If you have any antibiotic cream, apply that and cover your wound with either bandages or some old pieces of clothes.

SWOLLEN TOE:
Raise and rest your foot with the swollen toe when you can. Put some ice wrapped in a towel on the toe for up to 20 minutes every 2 to 3 hours. Take a paracetamol if you can. Do not walk or stand for long period of times if it hurts a lot.
hope this helps and i hope you get better soon!
