It is said that first sign of civilization in human history was a femur that had been broken and then healed with the care of the loved ones. Such deep is the association of mankind and fractures. Since time immemorial, fracture patients are taking varied therapies to enhance fracture healing. Some are evidence based, some are not. With renewed interest in complementary and alternative medicine; it becomes wise to make primary care physicians aware of the viewpoints of dietician, homeopathy doctor and an ayurveda doctor on the medicines prescribed by them for fracture cases. A physician should be aware of different treatment methodologies to have an intelligent discussion with a curious patient. Dieticians emphasize on a healthy balanced diet. Ayurveda physicians focus on shali rice and clarified butter; while homeopathy physicians vouch on Symphytum.
