Bone fracture fixed

In the year 2016, my left leg small finger got hit in a side wall and was fractured. I waited bearing the pain for nearly 10 days, thinking that it will be cured on its own. But the finger was bending out of my foot. So I consulted an orthopedist and he told me looking at the x-ray that it should be operated by putting a small iron needle. It is a very minor operation. It will cost Rs.1 lakh.

I thought if it is a fracture I should be able to fix it with our traditional medical methods. So I took a taxi to reach out to Puthur bone fixing center in chennai. But the OLA taxi driver told me that, even puthur method might cause infection, but there is a traditional method in Tirunelveli, called Pandaravilai which is foolproof. 

I was not knowing anything about Pandaravilai, but traveled to my native. I found the clinic and they asked me to buy an egg and a piece of clothe there itself and I did. But he told me that it might take a longer time since I came very late. I told fine. With a small wooden stick and the clothe he tied it. Once in every 3 days I was supposed to visit the clinic. 

I was doing that. The regular milk man to home, suggested another vaidhya of that area, who will come home and treat. He was an old man of age around 83 years and he was a travelling vaidhya. He came home and his work was perfect and my problem got fixed with less than the estimated time. The total treatment cost was around Rs. 1000/-

Our Indian tradition has lot of such secrets which are to be explored and brought out for the welfare of the people. The younger generation should be ready to learn such methods as a service to the people.
