The treatment methods of left femoral neck fracture mainly include non-operative treatment and operative treatment, and the choice of specific treatment methods should be considered comprehensively according to the age, health status and fracture type of patients. 1. Non-surgical treatment is suitable for patients who are in poor physical condition or cannot tolerate surgery. Common methods include skin traction, bone traction, bed rest, etc. Non-surgical treatment requires long-term bed rest, and is prone to complications such as lung infection and deep vein thrombosis. Therefore, it is necessary to closely observe the patient's condition and carry out corresponding nursing and treatment. 2. Surgical treatment The purpose of surgical treatment is to restore the anatomical structure and stability of the femoral neck, promote fracture healing, and reduce the occurrence of complications. Surgical methods include closed reduction and internal fixation, open reduction and internal fixation, artificial hip replacement, etc. Closed reduction and internal fixation: reduction of fractures by manipulation or traction, and then fixation of fracture ends with screws, plates and other internal fixation materials. This method is suitable for patients with small fracture displacement and no obvious damage to the blood supply of the femoral head. Open reduction and internal fixation: open the skin and expose the fracture end for reduction and internal fixation. This method is suitable for patients with large fracture displacement, impaired blood supply of the femoral head or difficult reduction. Artificial hip replacement: If the patient is older, has difficulty healing fractures, or has other medical conditions that make internal fixation unacceptable, artificial hip replacement may be considered. This procedure can relieve pain, restore hip function, and improve the patient's quality of life. In addition to the above treatments, postoperative rehabilitation is also important. It should be noted that the treatment of femoral neck fracture should be carried out under the guidance of a professional doctor, and personalized treatment plan should be formulated according to the specific situation of the patient. At the same time, patients should actively cooperate with doctors during treatment, pay attention to rest, strengthen nutrition, and prevent complications.
