Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Homoeopathic Domestic Physician: Containing the Treatment of Diseases; Popular Explanations of Anatomy, Physiology, Hygiene and Hydropathy, a Treatise on Domestic Surgery, and an Abridged Materia Medica This disease is comparatively a new one, with, whose nature and character we have had heretofore but little acquaintance. It now has appeared among us in an epidemic form, and we have had abundant opportunities to study its character and treatment. Though dangerous, if not recognized and treated in the beginning, it admits of very successful treatment, if carefully watched and immediately met by the proper remedies. In this respect it resembles the Asiatic Cholera, which, also, proved terrible only when neglected in the beginning, or not at all recognised as such. Diphtheria attacks all ages, but j)rincipally the young, and among these the full, fleshy children. Adults are scarcely taken with it, except by real infection from others, and in such cases the results are more severe. The disease has an infectious character, but only by immediate iransmission of portions of saliva or membranous shreds of the patient into the mouth, nose, eyes, or wound of another; mere exhalation seems not to propagate the disease, though even in very severe cases, where the exhalations become very fetid, this may also be the case. Whether the disease attacks the same person more than once during life, or the same season, is not known as yet. Like other epidemics, which favor particular organs as places of development, it increases the frequency and danger of those diseases peculiar to those organs, and impresses upon them more or less of its own character. If, during Cholera times, diarrheas were very frequent and obstinate, though they were, strictly speaking, not real Cholera attacks, so we have now sore throats in abundance, and find them more obstinate than heretofore. Diagnosis. - It is already generally known that this disease principally affects the throat, and many have been induced to believe that it is nothing more than a malignant form of ulceration of the throat, similar to that which accompanies the scarlet fever, or appears in its stead. Others believe it to be a new species of Croup, with greater extent and fatality. But those opinions are not correct. There are similarities between these diseases, because the locality of their appearance is the same; yet their differences are so great, that we must not consider them to be of the same family. Diphtheria is a disease, the germ of which enters the system in the form of a miasm, like that of cholera or any other miasmatic disease, and then, in the course of its development, propagates its own germ on the locality peculiar to itself, and that is the throat.
