Mar 03, 2022

Bone marrow puncture is less painful, and the discomfort is usually pain. Due to the effect of local anesthetics, most subjects can tolerate it and recover in about 7 days. However, there are certain differences in the tolerance and sensitivity of each person to pain, and the degree of pain perception is different, and some people may feel that the pain is more obvious.

Generally, the psychological pressure of bone marrow puncture is also obvious, especially for the first time bone marrow puncture. Excessive tension and fear can often increase the sensitivity to pain and magnify the pain during the operation. It is recommended that the subjects relax their minds. At present, the bone piercing technology is relatively mature, so don't worry too much and cooperate with the doctor.

After the bone marrow puncture, it usually takes about 7 days of rest to recover well. After the puncture, the local area is fully and moderately pressed, and the local non-bleeding wound can usually recover quickly. However, this operation is an invasive examination. Patients need to prevent infection, care for the wound in strict accordance with the doctor's instructions, pay attention to hygiene, avoid getting water on the wound, and keep it clean and dry. If the wound becomes infected, the healing time will be prolonged accordingly, and you need to seek medical treatment in time.

Bone marrow aspirate is often used to check the morphology of blood cells, which can usually assist in diagnosis, observation of treatment efficacy and prognosis. A skin test should be done before the injection of anesthetics. Patients with bleeding tendency should do a coagulation test before this test to determine whether such an operation is suitable. For example, bone marrow aspiration is strictly prohibited for patients with hemophilia. During the examination, the patient can take the supine, lateral, sitting or lateral position, depending on the puncture site.
