MEDICAL INTRO
BOOKS ON OLD MEDICAL TREATMENTS AND REMEDIES

THE PRACTICAL
HOME PHYSICIAN AND ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MEDICINE
The biggy of the late 1800's. Clearly shows the massive inroads in medical science and the treatment of disease.

ALCOHOL AND THE HUMAN BODY In fact alcohol was known to be a poison, and considered quite dangerous. Something modern medicine now agrees with. This was known circa 1907. A very impressive scientific book on the subject.

DISEASES OF THE SKIN is a massive book on skin diseases from 1914. Don't be feint hearted though, it's loaded with photos that I found disturbing.

DISEASES OF CHILD­BED.

DISEASES OF CHILD­BED: Child-birth is to be regarded as a natural process, not as a disease ; and so the phenomena which necessarily follow contain ordinarily no element of disease and require no further interference than has been already indicated in the preceding pages. There may be some local difficulty in the breasts during the establishment of activity in these organs; there may be some spasmodic pain in the abdomen during the first few days, constituting the so-called after-pains; there may be some soreness at the orifice of the vagina from unimportant lacerations and abrasions. But aside from these there should be no marked symptoms ; there should be observed no fever, pain nor soreness ; after four or five days the secretion of milk is established ; after two weeks the lochial discharge has ceased and any soreness about the genital organs that may have existed has disappeared ; and after six or eight weeks the womb has returned almost to the size that it had before impregnation ; and the woman should be as well in every regard as she was before assuming the duties of maternity. While such is the natural course of events, yet many instances present serious interruptions and ultimately fail in restoring the woman to a condition natural and proper for maternity. The number of women who suffer from ills originating in the genital organs is almost as great as the number of women who have borne children ; and the majority of these, at least, date their difficulties from confinement.

The diseases that can be traced directly or indirectly to childbirth may be properly considered in two categories - the acute diseases that follow immediately upon confinement and the chronic affections, which may first become manifest some months or years subsequently. Chief among the former stands Child­bed Fever.
