Abstract
- The article discusses the diagnosis and treatment of the real illness called ischiogluteal bursitis. It features the two doctors Roy Swartout and Edward Compere of El Monte, California who wrote an article "The Pain in the Arse" about the illness which was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. It states that the ailment will come out when friction causes inflammation of the bursae in places where tendons pass over the ischia or hipbones. It outlines the prescription of painkillers on the ailments and the efficacy of marijuana which was reported by researchers from Columbia University's College of Physicians and Surgeons. Moreover, the risk on the industrial exposure to vinyl chloride, which is a plastic substance, is explained.
