87. Οἷσι δ᾿ ἂν ἐκβῇ ὁ ποὺς ἢ αὐτὸς, ἢ ξὺν τῇ ἐπιφύσει,
ἐκπίπτει μὲν μᾶλλον ἐς τὸ ἔσω. Ἢν δὲ μὴ ἐμπέσῃ, λεπτύνεται
ἀνὰ χρόνον τό τε ἰσχίον καὶ ὁ μηρὸς καὶ κνήμης τὸ
ἀντίον τοῦ ὀλισθήματος. ἐμβολὴ δὲ ἄλλη, ὥσπερ καρποῦ,
κατάτασις δὲ ἰσχυρή. Ἴησις δὲ, νόμος ἄρθρων. Παλιγκοτέει, ἧσσον
δὲ καρποῦ, ἢν ἡσυχάσωσιν. Δίαιτα μείων, ἐλινύουσιν. Τὰ δὲ ἐκ
γενεῆς ἢ ἐν αὐξήσει, κατὰ λόγον τὸν πρότερον.

On the Articulations Perseus (Hippocrates, The Genuine Works of Hippocrates, Vol. 2. Adams, Francis, translator. New York: William Wood and Company, 1886.) — 87 focus

[87] When the foot is dislocated, either alone or along with its epiphysis, the displacement is, for the most part, to the inside. If not reduced, in the course of time, the hip, the thigh, and the side of the leg opposite the dislocation, become atrophied. Reduction is the same as in the wrist, but the extension requires to be very powerful. Treatment, agreeably to the general rule for joints. Exacerbations do occur, but less frequently than in dislocations at the wrist, provided the parts get rest. While they remain at rest the diet should be restricted. Those which occur at birth, or during adolescence, follow the rule formerly stated.
