In these cases the subluxation may be located in any part of the spine, although it is less often found in the cervical region. If there is a subluxation in the cervical region, great enough to produce this constant crying, there is very likely to be cerebral symptoms. In these cases the subluxations are usually quite exaggerated and very often the hot box becomes the determining factor. In a case recently an infant three weeks old had been crying constantly for several hours. The clothing had been removed and the child very carefully bathed and powdered; then instead of the clothing being replaced the child was wrapped in a blanket. Still the crying persisted. A very careful observation of the patient gave no information whatsoever as to the possible location of the cause for the crying. There was nothing that would quiet the child. He finally grew so exhausted that the cry became little more than a whimper, beads of perspiration standing out over the entire body. There were no signs of colic or tympanites. A careful palpation revealed the sixth dorsal very badly subluxated and a slight subluxation of the first lumbar. These were adjusted and the child stopped crying almost instantly and in less than ten minutes was sleeping normally. There was no return of the abnormal crying and the child had no further adjustments. We have many such cases on record, but the citation of this one is sufficient to illustrate the results that are obtained in such cases. Palpating the Infant In palpating an infant the first thing to look for is the hot box. It may be possible to locate it very easily and if this is so it then becomes necessary only to list the direction in which the vertebra is subluxated. In looking for the hot box it is necessary to use care so as not to be misled by the difference in the temperature of the back due to some article of clothing being in contact with the back and raising the temperature in that region. Notice that there has not been some woolen garment, such as the band, pressing against the spine. To eliminate the possibility of thus being misled the entire back should be exposed to the atmosphere a sufficient length of time to allow the back to become influenced alike to the temperature of the air. The majority of incoördinations of infancy are acute, therefore the hot box is present. After the hot box is located then a very careful palpation should be made to determine the direction in which the vertebra is subluxated. It is not sufficient to consider that because the patient is an infant all that is necessary is to list the vertebra straight posterior and adjust it accordingly. Laterality, superiority and inferiority are quite as essential, and the chiropractor should not be satisfied until he has convinced himself on the question of these directions. If there is no laterality, superiority or inferiority then the adjustment should be given straight toward the anterior.
