Ὅσοισι μὲν οὖν πυκινὰ ἐκπίπτει ὁ ὦμος, ἱκανοὶ ὡς ἐπὶ τὸ

πλεῖστον αὐτοὶ σφίσιν αὐτοῖσιν ἐμβάλλειν εἰσίν: ἐνθέντες γὰρ τῆς ἑτέρης χειρὸς τοὺς κονδύλους ἐς τὴν μασχάλην, ἀναγκάζουσιν ἄνω τὸ ἄρθρον, τὸν δὲ ἀγκῶνα παράγουσιν ἐπὶ τὸ στῆθος.

τὸν αὐτὸν δὲ τρόπον τοῦτον καὶ ὁ ἰητρὸς ἂν ἐμβάλλοι, εἰ αὐτὸς μὲν ὑπὸ τὴν μασχάλην ἐσωτέρω τοῦ ἄρθρου τοῦ ἐκπεπτωκότος ὑποτείνας τοὺς δακτύλους, ἀπαναγκάζοι ἀπὸ τῶν πλευρέων, ἐμβάλλων τὴν ἑωυτοῦ κεφαλὴν ἐς τὸ ἀκρώμιον, ἀντερείσιος ἕνεκα, τοῖσι δὲ γούνασι παρὰ τὸν ἀγκῶνα ἐς τὸν βραχίονα ἐμβάλλων, ἀντωθέοι πρὸς τὰς πλευράς: ξυμφέρει δὲ κρατερὰς τὰς χεῖρας ἔχειν τὸν ἐμβάλλοντα.

ἢ αὐτὸς μὲν τῇσι χερσὶ καὶ τῇ κεφαλῇ οὕτω ποιοίη, ἄλλος δέ τις τὸν ἀγκῶνα παράγοι παρὰ τὸ στῆθος.

ἐστὶ δὲ ἐμβολὴ ὤμου, καὶ ἐς τοὐπίσω ὑπερβάλλοντα τὸν πῆχυν ἐπὶ τὴν Ρ῾άχιν, ἔπειτα τῇ μὲν ἑτέρῃ χειρὶ ἀνακλᾷν ἐς τὸ ἄνω τοῦ ἀγκῶνος ἐχόμενον, τῇ δὲ ἑτέρῃ παρὰ τὸ ἄρθρον ὄπισθεν ἐρείδειν.

αὕτη ἡ ἐμβολὴ, καὶ ἡ πρόσθεν εἰρημένη, οὐ κατὰ φύσιν ἐοῦσαι, ὅμως ἀμφισφάλλουσαι τὸ ἄρθρον, ἀναγκάζουσιν ἐμπίπτειν.
