Nilamadhaba Mohapatra , a tea and
cigarette vendor in Ashok Nagar Bhubaneswar met with an accident while crossing
the road in front of Bata showroom and suffered Collar bone dislocation. He
moved from Hospital to Hospital for good treatment for his ailment and spent
huge sums of money by his standard and still did not get appropriate treatment
and eventually; he knocked the door of a Desi Orthopedic located at “Mandirabeni”
near Bhapur in Khandapada area. Their diagnosis is as simple as their Ayurvedic
based medicine. First of all they go through the patient’s injury with their
trained hands and figure out fracture/dislocation if any; and then they try to
bring the damaged bones to original position and then they apply liberal amount
of herbal oil in those injury with a traditional Bandage. They also prescribe
and supply ayurvedic capsules for the patients to augment the healing process.
In a gap of one or two weeks, patients are advised to revisit and depending on
the requirement go for a fresh bandage and thereafter some heat treatment is
given in that injured area to augment calcium formation. In this method, the
patients return to normal life in 3-5 weeks time and saves poor people from
expensive Hospitalization and complicated invasive surgery. Not only
Mandirabeni but, there are other localities like Kalupada Ghat and Koleila that
offer such simple but effective Orthopedic treatment at very low cost which
needs to be brought in the State Map for Medical Tourism.
