The chiropractor should examine the direction of the fractured bone's slope. On the side where the deviation is directed, he will find a convexity, and on the side from which the bone has deviated, a concavity, and most often this can be determined by palpation. I will also say that the pain is strong in the direction where the deviation is directed; the crunching also indicates this; the doctor bases his actions on such signs.
The chiropractor should, in all circumstances, carefully and gently run his hand up and down the fracture site several times, so as to recognize a deviation, protrusion or fragment when he notices it, and not bandage a second time in the wrong place, thereby causing a rupture or causing pain. You should not be deceived by the straightness visible to the eye until complete recovery; sometimes the tumor hides significant disfigurement and curvature of the bone.
When a chiropractor examines a fracture and it turns out that if he does not completely correct it, it will disfigure the organ, and if he corrects it, it will lead to spasms and severe fevers, then it is better to leave it and not try to treat it; if he tried to heal the bone, but the bone did not give in and did not submit, then in no case should it be forced and introduced by force, because then the patient will be struck by something worse than if the bone remains indirect, if the reduction and correction is very painful and the doctor can return the bone to a fractured state, then this gives the patient great relief and rest.
The chiropractor must hasten to restore what is broken and set it the same day, for the longer it takes, the more difficult it is to insert the bone and the greater the damage, especially on bones surrounded by many muscles and nerves, such as the femur. To speed up the union, he must resort to the means already mentioned, which are the opposite of what slows it down, and the first of them is to multiply the amount of viscous blood.
