shoulder-joint seems sprained. On raising the arm the sensation extends into the chest and
arrests the breathing. The pain often extends from the right side of the neck; it is
relieved during rest; pressure and motion increase or excite it anew; the upper arm is
painful, deep in the bone, as if there were something living in it; the second day

Tensive stiff feeling in the lumbar region, with a kind of numb sensation, sometimes in the
morning, on waking, when lying upon the back, with a decided lameness of the body. ► Pressive-digging or gnawing pain in one or the other lumbar

with a feeling of stiffness and lameness or swelling in the back and lower extremities, and a warm
sensation in the affected parts, at times also a kind of numbness in them; the sensations
alternate often in the lumbar and sacral regions, continuing a long time and frequently
returning. ► *Sticking or sticking-pressing pain, at times
slight, at times very sensitive, in one or the other lumbar region, now in a small spot when
it is a simple sticking, now in a larger place, when it is chiefly pressing, either exactly

paralyzed, bruised sensation; frequently returning and
lasting a long time. ► A violent stitch
beginning in the lumbar portion of the spine extending outward across the left lumbar region
(forty-seventh day). ► *Some stitches in one or the other
lumbar region, especially in the region of the kidneys, at times fine, at times dull, at
times as if a nail were sticking in, and so violent and sudden that it stops the breath;
from without inward. ► *Burning stitches, single
or several in succession, in the region of the loins and kidneys. ► Pulselike stitches at short or long intervals from without
inward in one or the other lumbar and kidney region. ►
Slight superficial tearing in one or the other lumbar region. ►
*Tearing or tearing-sticking pain in the region of the loins and kidneys, usually more upon
one side, frequently at the same time in the small of the back, as if the region were crushed or bruised, with a feeling of stiffness, so
that it was difficult for her to rise from sitting, so
that the hands must assist rising; sometimes also involving the hip, the nates, and the
upper and posterior portion of the extremities, at times
also with a sensation of numbness. ► Bubbling
sensation in the lumbar region usually on only one side, sometimes lasting a short time,
sometimes several minutes, more when lying and when rising from sitting. [600.] ► *A

feeling as if the bone would be forced asunder, frequently with a feeling of
heaviness, warmth, or numbness, or buzzing, usually more noticed in the morning in bed
immediately on waking, worse when sitting and lying,
generally continuing a long time, frequently returning, sometimes relieved or removed by a
stool or passage of flatus; sometimes upon only one side, increased by stooping. ► Digging pressure, or tearing-sticking pain in the sacrum. ► A dull twinging stitch obliquely from without inward and
