General bone problems and Backaches is as old as man on earth and it use to be associated with old age. But bone related problems nowadays are more of accident causation globally. The competition occurring between the traditional and Orthopedics hospital on patients with bone related problems call for harmonization in the furtherance of the “health for all” goal of MDG, hence the emergence of the name ‘Tradomedical’. This study investigated the role of the bone setters in the rehabilitation of accident victims with dislocation and bone fractures in Minna, where there is dearth of modern bone specialist institutions and personnel. Six tradomedical bone setters centre were surveyed and found to be relatively cheaper, socio-culturally acceptable and accessible. The study find out that 60% of accident victims with bone fractures find their way directly to bone setters centres, 30% left orthodox hospital after bodily healing to bone setters, while only 2% left those bone setters to Orthopaedic hospital in other parts of the country. It is therefore recommended that the government, NGOs and CBOs should assist the tradomedical practitioners in building a more hygienic environment and calibration of their concoction for proper integration and co-recognition in the health delivery sector.
