The practice of surgery : embracing minor surgery and the application of dressings, etc., etc., etc. . Sir Astley Cooper recommends, for subluxation of the inferiormaxillary bone depending upon relaxation of the ligaments, blistersbefore the car, the shower-bath, and the internal use of ammoniaand steel. Dislocation of the Claviclk.—Dislocation of the claviclemay occur at cither extremity. The sternal end may be displacedforwards or backwards: the former is the more common. 212 DISLOCATION OF THE CLAVICLK. The scapular articulation may be displaced upwards, glidingover the acromion process. Diagnosis is easy in these cases. In luxation of the sternal. end forwards, the dislodged extremity is plainly seen and felt infront of the sternum, whilst the backicard displacement leaves ahollow at the superior edge of the sternum ; whilst a tumour, formedby the end of the bone, may be felt at the root of the neck. In luxation of the scapular extremity the shoulder is depressed,and the end of the clavicle may be felt above the acromion process.
