Disablement

Also wind disablement. Wilting and loss of the use of the limbs without pain and with loss of mental faculties. The Magic Pivot (灵枢 líng shū, rè bìng) states, When disablement is the disease, and there is no generalized pain, the limbs cannot contract, cognitive faculties are not seriously confused, and speech is faint, the condition can be treated. This passage would indicate that disablement is a sequela of wind stroke. See hemilateral withering; stroke.
