No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There is no study evaluating the clinical effect of traditional chinese medicine(TCM) in topical use on musculotendinous injury, nor is that investigating the effectiveness on bone fracture healing. We hypothesize that with aid of topical chinese herbal medicine in addition to oral analgesics can be more beneficial in treating post traumatic injury, launching early mobilization, and enhancing fracture healing process.
