no matter if it did crack the concrete - presumably the soil around the concrete is pretty firm anyway.

depending on cost and labor availability they might be worth trying as opposed to full post replacement and the attendant hole digging/new concrete pour.

if the concrete is already cracked and/or the post is just leaning and yet fully intact, those things wouldn't help at all.
