He who visits the sick takes away one-sixtieth of his pain/ who visits the sick alleviates his pain somewhat

In the question: Whoever visits a sick person belittles the patient a little and brings the patient closer to reading the dream. He praised the visits of the sick, which have the power to strengthen the patient to overcome his illness.

("He said: Be careful in a light mitzvah as in a severe one, for no one knows the measure of a drunkard's mitzvah! But my father said: Even a great one is near a small one. Rava said: Even a hundred times a day. Rabbi Aha bar Hanina said: Every visitor is sick - he takes one of the sixty in his grief" - Nidarim 33b)

Definition (Hebrew)

בְּהַשְׁאָלָה: מִי שֶׁמְּבַקֵּר חוֹלֶה מַמְעִיט בִּמְעַט אֶת הַחֹלִי וּמְקָרֵב אֶת הַחוֹלֶה לִקְרַאת הַהַחְלָמָה. פִּתְגָּם בְּשֶׁבַח בִּקּוּרֵי חוֹלִים שֶׁיֵּשׁ בְּכוֹחָם לְחַזֵּק אֶת הַחוֹלֶה לְהִתְגַּבֵּר עַל מַחֲלָתוֹ.

("הָא תְּנַן: הֱוֵי זָהִיר בְּמִצְוָה קַלָּה כְּבַחֲמוּרָה, שֶׁאֵין אַתָּה יוֹדֵעַ מַתַּן שְׂכָרָן שֶׁל מִצְוֹת! אֶלָּא אָמַר אַבַּיֵּי: אֲפִלּוּ גָּדוֹל אֵצֶל קָטָן. רַבָּא אָמַר: אֲפִלּוּ מֵאָה פְּעָמִים בְּיוֹם. אָמַר רַבִּי אַחָא בַּר חֲנִינָא: כָּל הַמְּבַקֵּר חוֹלֶה- נוֹטֵל אֶחָד מִשִּׁשִּׁים בְּצַעֲרוֹ"-נְדָרִים לט ע"ב)
