Residents of Izhevsk told how to avoid winter injuries

Residents of Izhevsk were reminded that ice and inattention in winter often lead to falls, especially in children and the elderly. To reduce the risk, you should choose shoes with a non-slip sole.

When falling, it is important to group and not to expose straight hands, so as not to injure the hands and wrists. If an injury does happen, do not try to repair the joints yourself.

Even if the limb retains mobility, this does not exclude a fracture, so with pain and swelling, a specialist should be examined.
