定语从句介词+which时的语序问题

看到一种说法,就是The river of which the banks are covered with trees flows to the sea The river the banks of which are covered with trees flows to the sea 这两种语序都是正确的,不太能理解,请问下面这句:

A frequent result of injuries sustained in falls is long-term pain, medication for which is not counted among the average per- person costs of emergency treatment for elderly people's injuries from such falls.

也能改写成…….pain, for which medicine…….的形式吗?

The river of which the banks are covered with trees flows to the sea. 这个句子我一读完前四个单词就感到别扭,我觉得river 后应该要有逗号,trees后也要有逗号,这样才对。我然后查了一下,百度上显示是练习题里的句子。有时百度的英语句子的准确性是令人怀疑的。

至于你说的这两种改法,如果有逗号的话,是可以了。

he river of which the banks are covered with trees flows to the sea  The river the banks of which are covered with trees flows to the sea

【答】of which the banks =  the banks of which = whose banks , 就是说,of which 在定语从句中作定语时,可以使用这几种词序。如果of which 在定语从句中不是定语,就不能这样使用。
