Compressing the thigh after putting between two rods

Submerging the head under water

Compressing the thigh after putting between two rods. ***Compressing the thigh after putting between two rods*** - **Chepuwa** is a form of **torture** that involves compressing a person's **thigh** between two **rods**, causing intense pain and potential injury. - This method is used to inflict severe pain without necessarily leaving easily detectable external marks, making it a particularly insidious form of abuse. *Force-feeding substances* - This practice, while also a form of abuse and torture, is distinct from Chepuwa, which specifically refers to the mechanical compression of a limb. - Force-feeding involves the involuntary administration of food or other substances, often used to punish, control, or coerce. *Submerging the head under water* - This describes **waterboarding**, a severe form of torture that simulates **drowning** and causes extreme distress and a sensation of suffocation. - It is a different method of torture with distinct physiological and psychological effects compared to limb compression. *Beating the soles* - This torture technique is known as **falanga** or **flogger** and involves repeatedly striking the **soles of the feet**. - While it causes significant pain and swelling, it targets a different body part and uses a different mechanism of injury than Chepuwa.

What is luxatio erecta ?

Inferior shoulder dislocation. ***Inferior shoulder dislocation*** - Luxatio erecta is a rare type of shoulder dislocation where the humeral head is displaced **inferiorly** and the arm is fixed in an **elevated position**, often described as looking as if the patient is "waving hello." - This dislocation typically results from **hyperabduction** of the arm, forcing the humeral head out of the glenoid fossa. *Anterior shoulder dislocation* - This is the most common type of shoulder dislocation, where the humeral head is displaced **anteriorly** and **inferiorly** beneath the coracoid process. - The arm is typically held in **abduction** and **external rotation**, not a sustained elevation. *Posterior hip dislocation* - This involves the displacement of the **femoral head** out of the acetabulum in a **posterior direction**, often due to high-energy trauma dashboard injuries. - The leg typically presents in **internal rotation**, adduction, and flexion. *Anterior hip dislocation* - This less common hip dislocation involves the femoral head displacing **anteriorly** relative to the acetabulum. - The affected leg is usually held in **external rotation**, abduction, and slight flexion.
