General discussion about dislocation

Dislocation is the incomplete exit of a bone from its container and a change in its natural position near the organs adjacent to it. If the bone does not come out of the joint completely, then this is called a displacement of the bone in the joint inward or outward and is determined by touch. Displacement is always incomplete, and some doctors call it washi, but if the damage does not move the bone, but crushes the surrounding tissue, then this is called vakhn and is not displacement.

And sometimes the third thing happens to the joint: it lengthens and exceeds its natural length, and it does not yet reach the point of dislocation, but the joint is easily dislocated; this often happens with the humerus and the femur.

Some people are very predisposed to dislocation of bones in their joints, because the holes in the bones of their joints are shallow, so that the heads that go into them are not held tightly, and the ligaments lying between the joints are not strong, but weak and thin by nature, or wet, easily stretched, or Viscous liquids flow into them, promoting sliding, or the edges of the bones of the joints, into which the heads enter, break off and the pits turn out to be filled, chipped, without partitions.

In some joints, dislocations occur easily, in others - difficult, and in others - moderately. Dislocation easily occurs, for example, in the knee joint, because its ligaments are soft. For the sake of the benefits known from anatomy, it is created with soft ligaments, so that it is easy to dislocate, and for this reason it is strengthened by the kneecap, but it also easily returns to a healthy state, for the ease of reduction is commensurate with the ease of dislocation, and the difficulty of reduction is commensurate with difficulty of dislocation. The shoulder joint in this respect is close to the knee joint in thin people, but not in obese people.

As for the joints in which dislocation is difficult, these are, for example, the joints of the fingers - you almost never dislocate them, and the bone breaks more quickly, as well as the bone of the elbow joint, and therefore it is difficult to set them. Among the average joints in this regard is the hip joint.

Sometimes a joint that is not usually easy to dislocate, for one reason or another, dislocates easily, and then it is also easy to set. For example, the head of the femur sometimes fills with fluid and is easy to dislocate, but it is also easy to set it back; this happens when someone suffers from inflammation of the sciatic nerve, their femur is constantly dislocated and with the slightest effort it is set, then it is dislocated again and set again. It is in this case that only cauterization is required and nothing else.

The most severe dislocation is the one in which the ends of the small tendons that connect one bone to another are torn; the joint then rarely returns to its natural state, and most often this happens in the head of the femur, then in the head of the humerus and in the canes of the feet, near the talus bones. A dislocation is worse than a fracture if the dislocation cannot be reduced and the fracture cannot be healed.
