Comparing common ice fall injuries¶

Checklist for a safe winter walk¶

• I am wearing boots with deep tread and soft rubber soles, or ice grips.
• My hands are free and in gloves, not pockets.
• I have a charged phone in an inside pocket.
• Someone knows where I am going if I will be out long.
• I will walk with short, flat footed steps and use handrails.
• I will treat shiny pavement as ice and avoid shaded patches.
• I have cleared and salted steps and paths at home.
• I know the signs of a serious head or hip injury and will call for help.

What is the best way to fall on ice?¶

Tuck your chin to your chest, keep your arms bent and in front of you instead of stretching out your hands, and try to land on the padded parts of your body such as the side of your buttocks or thigh. Relax as much as you can and roll with the fall. Avoid landing on your wrists, elbows, knees or the back of your head.

When should I go to the hospital after slipping on ice?¶

Call your local emergency number if you lose consciousness, are confused, vomit, have neck or back pain, cannot move a limb, have a visibly bent bone or cannot bear weight on a leg. Seek care the same day for a head knock if you are over 65 or take blood thinners, and for any wrist or ankle pain that is severe or gets worse. Do not wait to see if symptoms pass when you hit your head.

Why do wrist fractures happen so often when people slip on ice?¶

Most people throw out a hand to break a fall, and the force of the landing travels through the hand into the wrist and forearm. The wrist bone at the thumb side tends to break at that point, especially in people with thinner bones. Keeping your arms bent and rolling with the fall can reduce the risk.

Is rock salt safe for pets and plants?¶

Rock salt can irritate paws and harm plants and concrete if you use a lot. Use only a thin layer, rinse and wipe your pet's paws after walks, and consider pet safe de-icers or sand for grip. Keep all de-icers out of reach, since eating them can make pets sick.

This guide was checked against the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (United States) pages on preventing falls and on older adult falls, the National Weather Service (United States) winter safety guidance, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons guidance on wrist fractures and winter falls, the American Red Cross first aid guidance for head injuries and fractures, the National Health Service (United Kingdom) advice on head injuries, falls and broken wrists, the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (United Kingdom) winter advice, the Canada Safety Council winter walking advice, and Health Canada winter safety pages. Where agencies differ, the more cautious advice is used.

Learn first aid¶

A hands-on first aid course teaches splinting, head injury checks, bleeding control and CPR with practice, which a page cannot do. The Red Cross, St John Ambulance and many local providers offer short courses. Taking one before winter prepares you to help a neighbor or relative who slips on ice.
