EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the medical practices of that era. Titled "Mode of support for a fractured thigh in old persons" this illustration comes from an archival publication called The Household Physician, published around 1898. The image showcases a method employed by doctors at the time to provide relief and aid to elderly patients suffering from a fractured thigh bone. With great attention to detail, it depicts an aged individual wearing bandages tightly wrapped around their injured leg. These bandages are strategically placed to immobilize the fracture and promote healing. In addition to the bandages, we see another crucial element in this mode of support – crutches. These sturdy walking aids were used as external supports for patients with lower limb injuries, allowing them mobility while minimizing strain on their injured limb. As we reflect upon this historical photograph, it serves as a reminder of how far medicine has advanced over time. While our current treatments may differ significantly from those depicted here, one cannot help but appreciate the dedication and ingenuity displayed by medical professionals throughout history in providing care for those in pain or distress. This print is not only an intriguing piece of medical history but also highlights the importance of understanding our past as we continue striving towards advancements in healthcare today.
