OBS

signe de la cassure: No English equivalent exists for this concept. To relieve the pain associated with vertebral damage, a person may lean to the side opposite the damage. When the person leans to the injured side, they can only do so above the damaged vertebra. This is called "signe de la cassure" in French.
