Side 14 - ... in all pathological conditions, surgical or medical, which linger persistently, in spite of all efforts at removal, from the delicate derangements of brain substance that induce insanity and the various forms of neurasthenia, to the great variety of morbid changes, repeatedly found in the coarser structures of the body, there will invariably be found more or less irritation of the rectum, or the orifices of the sexual system, or of both.
Side 14 - ... that induce insanity, and the various forms of neurasthenia, to the great variety of morbid changes repeatedly found in the coarser structures of the body, there will invariably be found more or less irritation of the rectum, or the orifices of the sexual system, or of both. In other words, I believe that all forms of chronic diseases have one common predisposing cause, and that cause is a nervewaste occasioned by orificial irritation at the lower openings of the body.
Side 37 - PAPILLA are conical processes of mucous membrane of variable size, shape and location. They have no relationship with the pockets, for they very frequently exist independently of them. When the papillae are small, abundant, and transparent at their apices, they seem to be productive of the greatest amount of trouble. Each one always contains a central artery which bleeds viciously when the papilla is snipped off.
Side 14 - In other words, there is one predisposing cause for all forms of chronic diseases, and that is a nerve waste occasioned by orificial irritation at the lower openings of the body. These irritations induce a rigidity of the sphincters guarding the parts which either continues, sympathetically affecting the rest of the 'involuntary muscular system, and steadily draining the nervous power that supplies it, until the whole struggle terminates in a rigor mortis, or tiring out in the hopeless grip, it relaxes...
Side 13 - ... force or a low tone of the nervous system means an enfeebled condition with its various forms of unfortunate sequences. The latter condition is frequently found in the aged, although the apparently robust are not exempt from a stasis of circulation in the urinary tract. Whatever wastes sexual power causes a waste of sympathetic nervous power, and therefore lowers the nervous tone of the whole sympathetic system. The various forms of neurasthenia may be traced to the irritation of the rectum or...
Side 36 - Their removal, in this class of cases, is invariably attended by more or less improvement of the patient's general circulation, while, on the other hand, the operation never appears to result in the slightest harm. After an extensive experience and observation I am now, as I was two years ago, in favor of removal of these rectal pockets under all circumstances, and in all case,s in which they are found. In form and character these pockets may be long and narrow channels, ulcerated at the bottom;...
Side 35 - I have gone far enough in my researches to be able to tell you that they are by no means a constant condition, and that they have no definite and uniform location. When present, they always occasion a spasmodic contraction of the sphincter ani, a condition which is most frequently observed in those cases which are developing some deep-seated constitutional disease. Their removal, in this class of cases, is invariably attended by more or less improvement of the patient's general circulation, while,...
Side 83 - Two years have now passed and there has been no return of the old troubles. She has gained in flesh, is rosy and hearty, and the centre of attraction for a large circle of friends. — L. On "Individualization.
Side 9 - SURGERY. npHERE is one chief agency by means of which man's physical being is developed, by which it is maintained in a normal condition, and, when broken down or impaired, by which it is restored to a condition of health.
Side 9 - ... all are directed to this one thing alone: I mean, the circulation of the blood. If the blood current is strong and free, we are well; if, on the other hand, the general circulation is sluggish, or if local congestions occur, disease is a necessary consequence.
