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 THE LIVER.

The liver is in the popular mind the scapegoat upon which is laid the responsibility for many of the ailments to which the body is liable. " Liver complaints " and " biliousness" are the banners with which any number of patent medicine vendors, " liver pad " makers, electric belt manufacturers, etc., assail the pockets of the credulous. The fact is, that in our climate affections of the liver which occasion appreciable symptoms are comparatively rare, except as complications of other complaints; primary disease of the liver itself, limited to the liver, is a by no means frequent occurrence.

Among the most common affections involving the liver is the catarrh of the stomach, small intestine and gall ducts, resulting in the group of symptoms known as " biliousness. " The symptoms of this affection vary according as the stomach is involved to a greater or less degree ; there is usually vomiting of a greenish or yellowish matter, constipation, pain in the head and over the stomach, a bitter taste in the mouth, possibly a little yellowness of the eyes or of the skin. Similar symptoms varying somewhat in details maybe induced by
