Even after 18 months, the fracture line was visible in the X-ray, so he was re-operated (ORIF) and the nail was replaced by plate fixation. However, after the second operation, the patient developed foot drop and hyperesthesia due to peroneal nerve injury. In view of this complicated history, the patient was suggested to take supportive Ayurvedic medicines and <em>Panchakarma</em> to hasten the healing process. The Ayurvedic medicines <em>Lakshadi guggul</em> 500 mg, <em>Mashadi Yoga</em> 500 mg and <em>Asthi majja yoga</em> 500 mg three times a day were started.
