Treatments for Compartment Syndrome

8. Eat Anti-Inflammatory Foods

A diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods cannot treat compartment syndrome alone. However, it can help prevent it from coming back. Fried foods, refined sugars, and artificial additives induce inflammation in the body. Since compartment syndrome deals with increased pressure, poor blood circulation, and swelling, it is better to consume foods with anti-inflammatory properties. For example, blueberries, raw oats, ginger, green tea, dark chocolate, wild salmon, and red peppers are all considered anti-inflammatory foods, just to name a few.
