Halter's traction is a method used in orthopedic treatment, particularly for managing fractures or dislocations of the lower extremities, such as the femur. It involves applying a pulling force to the affected limb using a halter or sling, which is typically attached to weights. This traction helps to align the bones, reduce pain, and promote healing by maintaining proper positioning of the fractured area. It is often used in conjunction with other treatments, such as casting or surgical intervention.
