Inflammatory swelling of the tonsils, generally accompanied by great pain and difficulty in swallowing, and frequently followed by the formation of one or more absceses. Cause. The principal exciting cause is exposure to cold; sudden changes of temperature ought always to be guarded against, particularly when a person has once suffered from quinsy; as there is a great liability to a recurrence of this disease. Character. The attack is usually ushered in with much constitutional disturbance, often with distinct fits of shivering. The pulse is full, and increases in frequency. The tongue is furred, and the constant dribbling of saliva from the mouth is most annoying. Headache is a frequent symptom, and the patient often suffers from severe thirst. In severe cases the tonsils swell so much that they almost meet; this condition produces great difficulty and pain in swallowing, and liquids often return through the nostrils. In many cases there is hoarseness, in others the patients speak through the nose, or in whispers; in some there is complete loss of voice. The temperature of the body rises rapidly, the thermometer not unfrequently registering at night 104 F. There 13 often deafness; if the inflammation extends to the ear-tube it gives rise to severe pain in the ear, which, in cases where it spreads along the canal, causes a great deal of trouble. Stiffness and pain at the angles of the jaws, accompanied by great difficulty in opening the mouth, is very characteristic of this disease.

Download or read book Animals and Medicine written by Jack Botting and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2015-05-04 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animals and Medicine: The Contribution of Animal Experiments to the Control of Disease offers a detailed, scholarly historical review of the critical role animal experiments have played in advancing medical knowledge. Laboratory animals have been essential to this progress, and the knowledge gained has saved countless lives—both human and animal. Unfortunately, those opposed to using animals in research have often employed doctored evidence to suggest that the practice has impeded medical progress. This volume presents the articles Jack Botting wrote for the Research Defence Society News from 1991 to 1996, papers which provided scientists with the information needed to rebut such claims. Collected, they can now reach a wider readership interested in understanding the part of animal experiments in the history of medicine—from the discovery of key vaccines to the advancement of research on a range of diseases, among them hypertension, kidney failure and cancer.This book is essential reading for anyone curious about the role of animal experimentation in the history of science from the nineteenth century to the present.
