κατατείναντα ἐς ἰθὺ, τὸ μὲν ἐξέχον ἀπωθέειν, τὸ δὲ ἐναντίον ἀντωθέειν· ἴησις δὲ, ὀθονίοισιν. Μὴ ἐμπεσὸν δὲ, ἐπιπωροῦται
ἔξωθεν Ἐκ γενεῆς δὲ ἢ ἐν αὐξήσει ἐξαρθρήσαντα, τὰ ὀστέα
βραχύνεται τὰ κάτω τοῦ ὀλισθήματος, καὶ σάρκες μινύθουσι
τἀναντία μάλιστα, ἢ ὡς τὸ ἔκπτωμα· ηὐξημένῳ δὲ τὰ ὀστέα μένει.

On the Articulations Perseus (Hippocrates, The Genuine Works of Hippocrates, Vol. 2. Adams, Francis, translator. New York: William Wood and Company, 1886.) — 29 focus

[29] Dislocation at the joint of a finger is easily recognized. Reduction is to be effected by making extension in a straight line, and applying pressure on the projecting bone, and counter-pressure on the opposite side of the other. The treatment is with bandages. When not reduced, callus is formed outside of the joint. When the dislocation takes place at birth, during adolescence the bones below the dislocation are shortened, and the flesh is wasted rather on the opposite than on the same side with the dislocation. When it occurs in an adult the bones remain of their proper size.
