I don't understand, you fell 6 days ago and you got a tight bandage from a bone setter 10 days ago... how does that work or did you fall twice?
You went to the traditional bone setter and are asking for validation from an allopathic doctor?
People lose limbs and functionality due to tight bandages, I hope you get the right treatment.
