Well, from my knowledge, they had a tool called a Leg Splint. It was a wooden thing that would attach to your leg.

I'm glad we have good medical services and ways to help our legs and NOT use Leg Splints.

Could you use four popsicle sticks to make a splint?
You can use 2 Popsicle sticks to make a finger splint. Place one stick on each side of the finger and tape around it or use a triangle bandage with a square knot above and below the broken part. If you are trying to splint another part of the body try not to use Popsicle sticks because they aren't long enough since you need to demobilize both joints above and below a break. I would suggest for arm or legs using wood planks or magazines to splint.
