This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed.

Whether it is that our perceptions are keener now, or that the constitutional power has degenerated by the fast life and stimulation of our day, it is agreed that blood-letting is but badly-borne now--and so in the great majority of cases, where thirty years ago bleeding would have been resorted to, it is barely thought of. Even in Apoplexy, in attacks of which it is still customary to take blood, in the greater number of cases--such as come on very suddenly, where the insensibility is complete, or where the patient is recovering on the advent of the doctor, cases depending on ruptured tissue--it has come to be allowed that to bleed is to enact a farce not very dissimilar to locking the stable door when the mare has been stolen, for-the mischief is over and done. The only cases in which leeching seems at all necessary, are some cases of inflammation of the lungs, womb, and the lung and intestine coverings; and these cases are only to be rightly determined by a medical man who brings all his knowledge to bear: therefore never bleed on any consideration without special medical advice. Leeches are usually kept in water, and when they have to be used, under advice, should be carefully wiped dry, with as little handling as possible, before being applied to the part.

After they have fallen off, gently sponge the skin and apply a poultice of bread or linseed. Should leech-bites continue to bleed to any undesirable-extent, apply pressure with the end of a finger for a minute, or wash the bite with a little strong solution of Common Alum in water....
