The treatment methods of intertrochanteric fracture include general treatment, drug treatment, surgical treatment, etc.

1. General treatment

For stable, non-obvious displacement fractures, it can be recurred by manipulation with the help of a doctor, and then fixed with braces, plaster, etc., which is conducive to fracture recovery.

2. Drug treatment

If accompanied by obvious pain, acetaminophen, celecoxib, ibuprofen and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be used according to the doctor's advice to play an anti-inflammatory and analgesic role.

3. Surgical treatment

For unstable or fractures with obvious displacement, surgical treatment can be considered, such as closed reduction and internal fixation, artificial joint replacement, etc.
