The therapeutical applications of hydrozone and glycozone . Fig. 17.—The CheapDispensary Splint. Fig. 18.—The DoubleDispensary Splint. example, in the knee-joint flexion is never seen in disease of the patella alone. This isdue to the fact that this portion of the hip-joint is supplied from the anterior crural and ob-durator nerves, which trunks supply the extensors of the limb, and not the flexion occurs in disease of the condyles, the nerve supply of which is derivedfrom the great sciatic, which nerve-trunk supplies the chief flexors and not the extensorsof the limb. To furthur illustrate the action of the muscles about the hip-joint, the limb being M7 straight and then flexed, I present this manikin, with rubber straps so placed as to represent the action of the various groups of muscles. Fig. 13 should represent the limbparallel, but the artist failed to place them so. Abduct the limb, as seen in Fig. 14, anathe pelvis tilts and the right limb appears too This relieves the pressure withinthe joint by unwinding th
