Internal Reaction.— The changes induced in internal 1258parts by applications to the surface, especially by cold appli-cations, may be not improperly termed internal reaction.(For full discussion of the phenomena of reaction, see para-graphs 429-481.) These changes it is desirable sometimesto suppress or diminish, in other cases to encourage. In general, it may be said that the more intense the exter-nal application, the more pronounced will be the internalreaction. The reaction of cold differs diametrically from thereaction following a hot application. The reaction followingcold increases all kinds of vital work — heart and vessel work,
