Acute Open Fracture

My wife just suffered an open fracture due to a workplace accident.

What precautions should I keep in mind during treatment once she’s been helped and released from hospital?

I’ll be going through what I usually do in such cases:

  • restore function to local muscles
  • Evil Bone Water and TDP
  • perfusion
  • soft tissue work

My concern is whether there’s an appropriate timeline for any of these. For example, is pain relief and hemodynamics/fluid dynamics a main focus early while avoiding motor points?

Is there a waiting period before doing any motor points?

Etc.

TIA!

Shoulder pain

I have a patient who continues to have pain on the anterior part of her shoulder where the tendon crosses the acromion. Last treatment I did inline technique on the deltoid and 2 needle technique with high frequency at the coracoid process plus soft tissue work at the coracoid. Said it felt better after the treatment. I have treated all other areas related to the shoulder. It is better for a few days but pain usually sets back in. She is a personal trainer but has not been doing any shoulder exercises. Am I missing something, give it more time? I've treated her 7-8 times.

Clinical Intensive this October

This is the next step for all EXSTORE grads. Some space available.
