RESUMEN
Compartment syndrome usually develops as a result of traumatic musculoskeletal injury or vascular injury. Early diagnosis and emergency fasciotomy are mandatory for the decompression of compartment pressure in the acute stage. Minor trauma or a non traumatic event can cause compartment syndrome. No report was available of the folk remedy. We report upon two cases of neglected compartment syndrome caused by a folk remedy.
