Cholera Morbus
This disease generally comes on at night, in hot weather, and is, in many cases, induced by over eating while the patient is suffering from diarrhoea and a deranged state of the liver. It is essentially of a bilious character. It sets in with great ... Chronic Back Pain
Barry was a carpenter who couldn't afford to lose work because he was unable to bend or twist or lift. He frequently had bouts of severe back pain that made working almost impossible. Upon analysis by biokinesiology I found that he had a major probl... Chronic Diarrhea

It is not easy to decide just whew all acute endocarditis has entirely subsided and a chronic, slow-going inflammation is substituted. It would perhaps be better to consider a slow-going inflammatory process subsequent to acute endocarditis as a sub... Chronic Esophagitis
This is usually a result of stagnation of food or secretion, and will be considered under spasmodic stenosis and diffuse dilatation of the esophagus. A very marked case with local distress and pain extending through to the back was seen by the au... Chronic Myocarditis Fibrous
Chronic myocarditis may develop on an acute myocarditis, but is generally a slowly progressive chronic process from the beginning; it occurs mostly in persons past middle life, and as a rule is not primarily associated with rheumatism or valvular di... Chronic Stenosis Of The Larynx And Trachea
The various forms of laryngeal stenosis for which tracheotomy or intubation has been performed, and the difficulties encountered in restoring the natural breathing, may be classified into the following types: 1. Panic 2. Spasmodic 3. Paraly... Cicatricial Stenosis Of The Esophagus
Etiology.--The accidental swallowing of caustic alkali in solutions of lye or proprietary washing and cleansing powders, is the most frequent cause of cicatricial stenosis. Commercial lye preparations are about 95 per cent sodium hydroxide. The clea... Classification Of Cardiac Disturbances
For the sake of discussing the therapy of cardiac disturbances in a logical sequence, they may be classified as follows: Pericarditis Acute Adherent Myocarditis Acute Chronic Fatty Endocarditis Acute, sim... Clinical Interpretation Of Pulse Tracings
A moment may be spent on clinical interpretation of pulse tracings. It has recently been shown that the permanently irregular pulse is due to fibrillary contraction, or really auricular fibrillation--in other words, irregular stimuli proceeding from... Clothing
Clothes should be Loose and Comfortable. Man is the only animal that has no natural suit of clothing. Birds have feathers, and animals have fur, or hair, which they shed in summer and thicken up in winter without even thinking about it, so that they... Cold Affusions And Rubbing
After the pack, the patient is placed in an empty bathing or wash-tub, and cold water (of 65 deg.-60 deg. Fahr., only with very young and delicate children a little higher, with adults rather lower) is thrown over him in quick succession by means of... Colds Consumption And Pneumonia
Disease Germs. In all foul air there are scores of different kinds of germs--many of them comparatively harmless, like the yeasts, the moulds, the germs that sour milk, and the bacteria that cause dead plants and animals to decay. But among them the... Colic

Although either the positive or the negative pole, applied to the healthy muscle, may produce spasmodic contraction, yet the negative pole contracts much more powerfully than the positive--a fact which shows an electrically plus condition in the ner... Complete Recovery Of The Seriously Ill
Its a virtual certainty that to fully recover, a seriously ill person will have to significantly rebuild numerous organs. They have a hard choice: to accept a life of misery, one that the medical doctors with drugs and surgery may be able to prolong... Complications And After-effects Of Bronchoscopy
All foreign body cases should be watched day and night by special nurses until all danger of complications is passed. Complications are rare after careful work, but if they do occur, they may require immediate attention. This applies especially to t... Complications Following Esophagoscopy
These are to be avoided in large measure by the exercise of gentleness, care, and skill that are acquired by practice. If the instructions herein given are followed, esophagoscopy is absolutely without mortality apart from the conditions for which ... Compression Stenosis Of The Esophagus
The esophagus may be narrowed by the pressure of any periesophageal disease or anomaly. The lesions most frequently found are: 1. Goiter, cervical or thoracic. 2. Malignancy of any of the intrathoracic viscera. 3. Aneurysm. 4. Cardiac and ... Compression Stenosis Of The Trachea
Decannulation in these cases can only follow the removal of the compressive mass, which may be thymic, neoplastic, hypertrophic or inflammatory. Glandular disease may be of the Hodgkins' type. Thymic compression yields readily to radium and the roe... Compression Stenosis Of The Trachea And Bronchi
Compression of the trachea is most commonly caused by goiter, substernal or cervical, aneurysm, malignancy, or, in children, by enlarged thymus. Less frequently, enlarged mediastinal tuberculous, leukemic, leutic or Hodgkin's glands compress the ai... Conclusion: Help Yourselves If Your Physicians Will Not Help You!
And I am none of your water-enthusiasts, who pretend to cure everything and any thing with water. My confidence in the hydriatic treatment of eruptive fevers, however, is almost unlimited, because it is founded on an experience of many years of happ... Conclusive Remarks Obstacles
Before concluding my article, I shall attempt to remove a few objections and obstacles, which are usually raised against the practice of the hydriatic system in families. ... Condition Of The Throat And Other Internal Organs
The condition of the _throat_ requires the most constant attention. From a highly inflamed state, it often passes into a foul and sloughy condition; the breath of the patient becomes extremely fetid; the nostrils, the parotid and submaxillary glands... Conditions Causing Change In Blood Pressure
