Prejudice Of Physicians Against The Water-cureCategory: TREATMENT OF OTHER FEVERS Source: Hydriatic Treatment Of Scarlet Fever In Its Different Forms The greatest, and the most serious, difficulty lies in the prejudice of physicians against the Water-Cure. This prejudice, although in the treatment of the diseases before us, it is founded on no other reasons but ignorance, lack of courage and the habit of travelling the old trodden path--the same _regular path_ which thousands and millions have travelled not to return--neither you, dear reader, nor I, shall be able to conquer by words. But we may succeed by actions. Take the matter in your own hands, before it is too late. Do not plead your want of knowledge and experience: a whip in the hand of a child is less dangerous than a double-edged sword in the hand of a fencing-master. I have known many a mother to treat her child for scarlet-fever, measles, small-pox, croup, &c., after my books, or after prescriptions received in Graefenberg and other hydriatic establishments, and I scarcely remember a case of accident, whilst those treated in the usual mode by the best physicians would die in numbers. I repeat it: there is no danger in the _wet-sheet pack_, and should a patient die under the treatment prescribed by me, you may be sure, he would not have lived under any other mode of treatment.
