Treatment by Quacks Still An Issue of Concern

Quacks Still An Issue of Concern
It was not all about writing a research paper or a case report. This time it was writing our experience regarding mismanagement of simple injuries or fractures by quacks.Lots of patients frequently come to our orthopaedic OPD with complaints of deformities, stiffness of joint, non union of fractures or an ugly swelling.

It is not uncommon to see patient left handicapped by a quack after a simple fracture. Not only do these quacks treat injuries but they also put their hands on other orthopaedic ailments like rheumatoid arthritis.

Most of time history is same.History of trauma sustaining injury to limbs and often injury is of 5 to 6 months old.
