Skin Traction

Sold by Unimed Johnvianney · Korle Gonno

Skin traction is a non-surgical orthopedic technique that applies a gentle, steady pulling force to a limb using adhesive tape or foam wraps. It is primarily used to stabilize fractures (like those of the femur or hip), relieve severe muscle spasms, and temporarily hold a broken bone in proper alignment while awaiting definitive surgery.
