The traumatologist told about the main danger of riding a cheesecake

Gennady Gordeev, a doctor of the highest category, an orthopedic traumatologist, said that the main danger of riding a cheesecake is the risk of serious injury.

In an interview with Radio 1 on Tuesday, January 27, he noted that this year, due to the abundance of snow, especially dangerous conditions have developed for winter skating. Loose frosty snow forms ice slides on steep slopes of ravines and near reservoirs, which attract children of different ages. At the same time, the risk of injury directly depends on the height and steepness of the slope, as well as the length of the route.: the bigger they are, the higher the danger.

The expert stressed that collisions and lack of skating culture remain one of the key problems, which can lead not only to bruises, but also to serious injuries, including traumatic brain injuries. According to him, the reason lies not only in the medical plane: children spend a lot of time with gadgets, which causes them to lose dexterity and vigilance in a real environment.

If a fall could not be avoided, the doctor recommends contacting the nearest emergency room to rule out serious damage. He noted that injuries in the cold are especially insidious, as reduced sensitivity can hide their severity.

Summing up, Gordeev called for an integrated approach to safety: it is important for parents to choose a place and equipment for skiing responsibly, and most importantly, to explain the risks to children and create controlled conditions for winter entertainment.
