943.
Croup.
As
this
disorder
frequently
and
quickly
terminates
fatally,
recourse
should
be
had
to
a
duly
qualified
practitioner
as
soon
as
possible.
The
disease
lies
chiefly
in
the
larynx
and
bronchial
tubes,
and
is
easily
recognisable
by
the
sharp,
barking
sound
of
the
cough.
A
warm
bath
and
mustard
poultice
will
often
tend
to
give
relief.
Medicines.
Aconitum
napellus,
in
the
earlier
stages
of
the
disorder,
and
spongia
and
Hepar
sulphuris,
in
the
more
advanced
stages,
the
latter
medicine
being
desirable
when
the
cough
is
not
so
violent
and
the
breathing
easier.
944.
Diarrhoea.
The
medicines
to
be
used
in
this
disorder
are
those
which
are
mentioned
under
colic
and
bilious
attacks.
945.
Dysentery
Dysentery
is
somewhat
similar
to
diarrhoea,
but
the
symptoms
are
more
aggravated
in
character,
and
the
evacuations
are
chiefly
mucus
streaked
with
blood.
As
a
local
remedy
hot
flannels
or
a
stone
jar
filled
with
hot
water
and
wrapped
in
flannel,
should
be
applied
to
the
abdomen.
Medicines.
Colocynthis
and
Mercurius
in
alternation.
946.
Dyspepsia
Dyspepsia
or
Indigestion
arises
from
weakness
of
the
digestive
organs.
Symptoms.
Chief
among
these
are
habitual
costiveness,
heartburn
and
nausea,
disinclination
to
eat,
listlessness
and
weakness,
accompanied
with
fatigue
after
walking,
&c.,
restlessness
and
disturbed
sleep
at
night,
bad
taste
in
the
mouth,
with
white
tongue,
especially
in
the
morning,
accompanied
at
times
with
fulness
in
the
region
of
the
stomach,
and
flatulence
which
causes
disturbance
of
the
heart.
The
causes
of
indigestion
are
too
numerous
to
be
mentioned
here,
but
they
may
be
inferred
when
it
is
said
that
scrupulous
attention
must
be
paid
to
diet
(see
par.
961);
that
meals
should
be
taken
at
regular
and
not
too
long
intervals;
that
warm
drinks,
stimulants,
and
tobacco
should
be
avoided;
that
early
and
regular
hours
should
be
kept,
with
a
cold
or
chilled
sponge
bath
every
morning;
and
that
measures
should
be
taken
to
obtain
a
fair
amount
of
exercise,
and
to
provide
suitable
occupation
for
both
body
and
mind
during
the
day.
