CHAP. XLVIII. Of the dislocation of the Whirle-bone of the knee.
THe Whirle-bone of the knee may fall forth into the inner, outter, upper and lower part; but never to the hinde part, because the bones which it covers doe not suffer it. To restore it, the patient must stand with his foote firmely upon some even place, and then the Surgeon must force and reduce it with his hands from the part into which it is preternaturally slidden. When it shall bee restored, the cavity of the ham shall bee filled up with bolsters, so that he may not bend his leg, for if it be bended, there is no smal danger of the falling back of the whirl-bone. Then a case or box shalbe put about it, on the side especially whereto it fell, being made somwhat flat & round resembling the whirl-bone its self, and it shall bee bound on with ligatures, and medicines so fast that it may not stirre a jot. After the part shall seeme to have had sufficient rest, it is fit that the patient try and accustome by little and little to bend his knee, untill at length hee shall find that he may easily and safely move that joint.
