Old fracture
Posted: Sun Mar 13, 2005 11:48 pm
I have just been contacted by a patient to ask me what she should give her active 73yr old father who apparently fractured his femur in November but wasn't told it was a fracture until recently as he thought he had badly bruised it. X rays show that this just discovered fracture may be healing very slowly and are going to check it in a couple of months to see if there has been any progress in the healing.
I suggested Calc Phos Tissues salts on a 3 week on 1 week off basis (as we were taught at college!) and wondered if it is too late for Symphytum and if not how to give it. Will my usual 6c 3x a day for 2 or 3 weeks do anything now? Maybe a Symphytum 200 would be better or even as in Boericke Thyroidinum for the delayed union of fractures. Any ideas please?
