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.

 19th CENTURY HEALTH MEDICINES AND DRUGS



Tumors of the Eyelids.

Tumors of the Eyelids: There are frequently formed, near the edge of the upper lid, minute lumps, varying in size from a pin's head to that of a pea.

These little tumors occasion no pain, but are the source of considerable annoyance to the person's vanity. They often occur in groups - two or three of them being found near together on the same lid. They may sometimes attain such a size as to interfere with the movement of the lid, and to prevent the eye from opening to its full extent.

These feel to the finger like small shot under the skin.

Sometimes they are soft, and at other times quite hard, so that the patient is inclined to be anxious in regard to them.

These tumors grow very slowly, and may last for several years. These masses are merely collections of matter in the follicles which surround the eyelashes. They are, therefore, essentially of the same nature as wens on the head.

Treatment.-There is but one way to get rid of these little tumors, and that is to open them and remove their contents. This will scarcely be undertaken by any one but a surgeon, since it is unsafe for an unskilled hand to bring a knife into the vicinity of the eye. The operation is a trivial one, and the cut can be made from the under surface of the lid, so that no scar will be visible. It will be therefore advisable for any one to whom the personal appearance is a matter of importance to have these little bodies removed.
