Colles fracture is the commonest fracture encountered in orthopedic practice that demands prompt therapeutic intervention, and adequate follow-up to ensure complete healing. Various types of fractures, methods of reduction, and healing have been explained in the classical Ayurveda texts. These techniques are scientific and time-tested. This paper aims to report the successful management of Colles fracture case using Ayurveda and modern techniques with the use of Murivenna (an oil-based herbal formulation mentioned in the contemporary texts of Ayurveda), half-cast POP, and aluminum splinted bandage along with the internal medicine AbhaGuggulu. A 75-year-old moderately built woman diagnosed with Colles fracture was treated with a closed manipulative reduction technique followed by a below-elbow half-cast POP and an aluminum splint. Murivenna was poured anteriorly to the fractured site and Abha Guggulu was administered internally. Re-bandaging was done on the 7th day and 21st day. The bandage was removed on the 35th day. The patient's condition improved considerably with a good range of wrist movements and then she was advised to commence rehabilitation. This integrative method, adhering to Ayurvedic principles and modern techniques is unique, patient-friendly, and without adverse events.
科莱斯骨折是骨科临床中最常见的骨折，需要及时的治疗干预和充分的随访以确保完全愈合。古典阿育吠陀文献中已经解释了各种类型的骨折、复位方法和愈合情况。这些技术是科学且经过时间检验的。本文旨在报告使用阿育吠陀和现代技术成功治疗科莱斯骨折病例的情况，包括使用Murivenna（一种阿育吠陀当代文献中提到的油基草药配方）、半石膏管型、铝制夹板绷带以及内科药物AbhaGuggulu。一名75岁、体型中等的女性被诊断为科莱斯骨折，采用闭合手法复位技术治疗，随后使用肘下半石膏管型和铝制夹板。Murivenna倒在骨折部位前方，Abha Guggulu内服。在第7天和第21天进行重新包扎。在第35天拆除绷带。患者的病情有了显著改善，腕关节活动范围良好，随后建议她开始康复治疗。这种遵循阿育吠陀原则和现代技术的综合方法是独特的、对患者友好的且无不良事件。
