Small quantities of blood is very often excreted from the kidneys, in consequence of congestion of the renal blood-ves- sels. The affection often follows injury or sprain in the lumbar region, and may occur in consequence of active disease, scattered in either the kidneys or the bladder. Strong diuretics, such as turpentine, juniper berries, etc., are operative in producing hema- turia. But many cases are very obscure. Blood is sometimes voided with the urine without any assignable cause. I have known mares, when menstruating, to pass considerable blood with the urine, which ceased on the termination of menstruation. Treatment.—The proper method of treating this affection is to apply warm-water dressings to the loins, and drench the patient with one ounce of fluid extract of matico, night and morning. Mucilaginous drinks are also needed, which may be composed of, slippery-elm, flaxseed, or gum Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Dadd, George H. , b. 1813.
