Cryptolepis buchanani (Ganglong, family Asclepiadaceae) is a climbing tree widely used in folk medicine in Southeast Asia. Also its root, stem, and leaves are used for the treatment of bone fracture by tribal people in Arunachal Pradesh. It shows antibacterial, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and chondroprotective activities. Cissus quadrangularis (Harjor, family Vitaceae) has been known for its bone healing properties for many centuries (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5512407/#:~:text=Acacia%20arabica%20(Babool%2C%20family%20Mimosaceae,dislocation%20of%20bones%20stiff%20joint.) |

| Disease Symptoms / Clinical Signs |
Damage to adjacent structures such as nerves, muscles or blood vessels, spinal cord, and nerve roots (for spine fractures), or cranial contents (for skull fractures) may cause other specific signs and symptoms. Also includes pain, disability, and deformity. If the fracture union is not achieved, the patient may suffer long-term disability. |
| Disease Description |
A bone fracture is a medical condition in which there is a partial or complete break in the continuity of the bone. In more severe cases, the bone may be broken into several pieces. A bone fracture may be the result of high force impact or stress, or a minimal trauma injury as a result of certain medical conditions that weaken the bones, such as osteoporosis, osteopenia, bone cancer, or osteogenesis imperfecta, where the fracture is then properly termed a pathologic fracture. |

| Procedure of Use |
In case of the bone fracture in animals, collect hairs of goat. Make strips from either assyrian pulp (Cordia myxa) or bamboo (Bambosa bambos) wood and also collect some bandages of cotton cloth. Soak goats hair in oil properly and arrange them on the fractured leg. Pour some more oil on the applied hairs and then place strips of wood, and tie the bandage. Untie the bandage after 15 days and repeat the bandage for second time. |
