Only needs, then, the quiet, the rest, and PREVENTING from
taking more cold; or quietness, or from the use of the vocal
chords; and to reduce temperature and to reduce the
inflammation. Necessary, then, that the eliminations be
increased. These may be done through that (and best through
that) of both a heart and a hepatic stimulant, as WELL as
that which would act with the digestive system, see? Also
we would use small quantities Syrup of Squill with this.
Also we would use massage over the throat and over the chest
of those of equal parts camphor, turpentine, hog lard, and
quarter the quantity of mustard. This will relieve the
condition. Do that. Well, too, that the system be kept
flushed, especially, with water - for two or three days.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Is there any local infection?
(A) Only irritation at present.
(Q) Is he getting the right treatment where he is?
(A) He is responding to that being given, as is outlined.
These as given would be added, which would be an additional
assistance to bringing the nearer normal condition.
(Q) Any further suggestions for this body?
(A) Do that as has been given for the present conditions,
and to meet the needs of these. Well that the body be
careful as respecting these; for when inflammation arises
in system the weaker portions are affected, as has been given
from times back concerning the physical condition of this
body. Well that a gargle antiseptic be used. Best that
these be alternated between an acid and an alkaline in their
reaction. These may be used, or there may be used a solution
to mop or clear out the throat, see? from the mucus
producing conditions and swelling. As a gargle we would
use, alternately, Glyco-Thymoline and Listerine. These are
both well, and opposite in their reaction.
(Q) In what proportion should these be used?
(A) Half quantity to begin with; that is half water and half
of the solution. One used one time, one used the next -
three to four hours apart, see?
This external application will materially aid, as well as the
Syrup of Squill to act with those of the stimuli for the
system.
(Q) What would be the dose of Syrup of Squill?
(A) The NOMINAL dose, which is from quarter to half
teaspoonful.
(Q) Would hot packs to his throat be beneficial at this
time?
(A) Not until the eliminations are started more; and these
would be bettered through the manipulation and the rubbing of
the properties as given - an EXTERNAL application rather than
HEAT, under the present conditions; for the body, as given,
is BETTER than it HAS been. More scared than injured. But
the reaction, of course, is in the blood supply and to the
nerve system.
