Канон врачебной науки. Книга 3. Том 2. Часть 22. Заболевания внешних и конечных органов.

Статья 2. Боли в этих органах, §3. Боли в суставах и то, что является общим для подагры, воспаления седалищного нерва и тому подобного (332a).

Материя при воспалении седалищного нерва чаще всего пребывает в суставе и просачивается из него в широкий нерв; когда [нерв] испытывает боль, это предрасполагает его к [приему других] соков, изливающихся к нему сверху из всего тела, кроме тех, которые были заперты вначале. А бывает и так, что материя [первоначально] находится не в суставе, а в широком нерве. Зачастую слизистая жидкость умножается в «шкатулке» и расслабляет связку между отростком и «шкатулкой», и происходит вывих бедра. А предварительно наступает состояние, [среднее] между сочленением и вывихом, то есть, когда [головка] быстро выходит и быстро возвращается и очень неустойчива. (translated from Arabic by П.Г. Булгакова, М.А. Салье; source: 1980Абу Али ибн Син, p. 502.)

Canon of Medicine. Book 3. Volume 2. Part 22. Diseases of the external and terminal organs.

Article 2. Pains in these organs, §3. Pains in the joints and what is common to gout, sciatica, and the like (332a).

The matter in sciatica most often resides in the joint and leaks from it into the broad nerve; when [the nerve] experiences pain, this predisposes it to [receive other] juices that flow to it from above from the whole body, in addition to those that were initially locked up. And it also happens that the matter [initially] is not in the joint, but in the broad nerve. Often the mucous fluid multiplies in the "box" and relaxes the ligament between the process and the "box", and a dislocation of the hip occurs. And before that, there comes a state [middle] between articulation and dislocation, that is, when [the head] quickly comes out and quickly returns and is very unstable. (translated from Russian, source: 1980Абу Али ибн Сина, p. 502.)
