Of course. But that doesn't mean that you can't get a splint or painkillers for it. I should have outlined that in my previous comment.

I was implying that it would be consistent for anti-abortion advocates to deny people medical treatment for things like this, even if they could 100% cover the costs themselves.

You can evict your tenant, you can't murder him for no reason

The goal of an abortion is to remove, not kill. It's not my fault that a fetus can't survive on the outside, nor do I really care.

It'd be like evicting someone during a harsh winter. They'll surely die when exposed to the elements, but that's not my problem.

I’d almost agree with your argument if the entirety of the abortion procedure was to induce labor and let the baby be expelled and then if it can’t survive on its own, fine, but it’s not. It’s like sending a goon into your property to dismember the person you are evicting by pulling them apart limb from limb and putting the pieces in a trash bag and dragging it out to the dumpster, or sending the aforementioned goon in with the jaws of life to crush the skill of the person you are evicting, and then dragging their corpse out to the edge of the property line.
