Is "canal wall down" ever hyphenated?

yes - nm

I find many hyphenated references.

Stedmans? - pyi

I am specifically looking for a Stedman's Word Book reference. My Stedman's Medical Dictionary was not acceptable.

Stedman's ENT 5th Ed says "canal wall-down" and "canal wall-up" - nm

Banging My Head Against The Wall

I keep getting dinged for comma usage, and I'm not one to overuse them, though I fully support the use of an Oxford comma.  I am old school, and I've been taught the following about commas 1)  They go before a conjunction when what could be complete sentence follows. 2)  They do not go before or after (unless there is a strange circumstance, i.e, "indeed" or some such wording thrown in) a conjunction w/o a complete sentence following it. My hospitals are "modified ver ...
