A treatise on the blood, inflammation, and gun-shot wounds . eived such wounds, whatever the symptoms or constitutionof the patient may be. That there is no better medicine forwounds in general, not only when the inflammation is gone off,but in the time of inflammation, if the patient is rather low, and,indeed, before it comes on, experience daily shows. Bark is to belooked upon as a strengthener, or regulator, of the system, and anantispasmodic, both of which destroy irritation ; the bark and gen-tle bleedings, Avhen the pulse begins to rise, are the best treatmentthat I know of in inflammations that arise either from accidents oroperations ; one lessens the volume of the blood, and the increasedanimal powers at the time, which makes the circulation more free ;so that the heart labours less, and simple circulation goes on morefreely ; the other gives to the blood that which makes it less irri-tating, makes the blood-vessels do their proper offices, and givesto the nerves their proper sensations, which take off the fever. //.,/<? /.
