Talk:First Aid/Musculoskeletal Injuries

Regarding this and this, it seems a merge from First Aid/Fractures to here is in order, along with a rename. How does First Aid/Musculoskeletal Injuries sound for this page, and First Aid/Immobilization for the other? I dislike the idea of dealing with fractures and the "lesser" injuries simultaneously, but it seems they really do want the same treatment for everything.

Nugger already supports this, so if there are no objections, I'll history merge, move and fix redirects in a week. I'll restore all or most of Nugger's edit now. – Mike.lifeguard  &#124; talk 02:59, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I would think that this is a better way of looking at things, it simplifies looking up information for injuries that present with almost the exact same symptoms. For example, sprain vs. fracture, both can present with swelling, bruising, extreme pain etc. As said before, the only definitive way to tell if an injury includes a fracture is by x-ray. With that said, having a separate section for immobilization with splinting will tidy up the pages. (Splinting can be done for any Musculoskeletal injury, so having it only under fractures at this time would not be correct.) --Nugger (talk) 19:08, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
