Dislocation and displacement of vertebrae

If a vertebra is completely dislocated, incomplete dislocation is sure to kill; if the vertebra has shifted significantly, it is also fatal. A dislocation that does not reach complete, if the doctor is careless and does not detect it, is disastrous, because the vertebra will certainly press on the spinal cord with great force. If the first cervical vertebra or the one following it is displaced, then the animal loses the ability to breathe and dies immediately, because the respiratory nerves are compressed and do not perform their action, but if it is one of the vertebrae of the ridge and it is dislocated towards the stomach, then it cannot be treated, and this is quickly kills. If the injury gives a delay and is not such as to interfere with breathing, it retains stool and urine and still kills, and if it gives a delay and the bone presses slightly on the spinal cord or presses, but the tissues do not swell, or the resulting tumor disappears, then it inevitably occurs damage that affects the spinal cord and the nerves that run underneath it, causing the excess to come out involuntarily.

If the dislocation is directed posteriorly, then the harm from it to the spinal cord is less, but damage and weakening of the nerves passing below is still inevitable, which weakens the legs and weakens the muscles of the bladder and rectum. For the vertebra to return to its place, a significant force is required, a sharp push and a terrible blow, which almost breaks its processes, and even before it returns to its place, its processes will already break off. Sometimes a vertebra is dislocated in one direction or another, but this is damage, the varieties of which we talked about when we talked about humps; fill in the information from there. A sign of this is that you see either a protrusion or a hollow in that place, as if the appendage has broken, but there is no greater harm from a fracture of the appendage, whereas dislocation of the vertebrae makes you fear death.
