Of the Luxation of the Nose.
The Bones of the Nose may be separated from that of the Fore-head by a Fall, or some violent Blow; and the Surgeon in order to set 'em, at first lays his Thumb upon the Root of the Nose, and then he introduceth a little Stick trimm'd with Cotton, into the Nostrils, and by the means thereof thrusts back the Bones into their place.
The Dressing and Bandage
Are the same with those that have been already describ'd in the Fracture of the Bones of the Nose.
