Página 226 - Sometimes the disorder comes on so gradually and insensibly, that the patient is hardly aware of its commencement. He perceives that he is sooner tired than usual, and that he is thinner than he was ; but yet he has nothing material to complain of. In process of time his appetite becomes seriously impaired; his nights are sleepless, or if he, get sleep, he is not refreshed by it. His face becomes visibly extenuated, or perhaps acquires a bloated look. His tongue is white, and he suspects that he...

Página 389 - If they were ulcers without any very marked appearance, and did not amend in the first fortnight or three weeks, they generally remained for five or seven weeks longer; and the only difference, in this respect, between them and the raised ulcer of the prepuce was, that this often remained for a longer period, and that ulcers, possessing the true characters of chancre, required in general a still longer period for their cure; that is, from six, eight, to ten, twenty, and even in one case twenty six...

In process of time, this tumour is attended with an itching, which is gradually exchanged for a pricking, a shooting, and at length a lancinating pain, a sense of burning, and a livid discoloration of the skin. And, however difficult it may be to determine the precise point of time in which the scirrhus -first becomes converted into a cancer, where these symptoms are...
Página 384 - ... ulcers of the nipples must also have been primary ulcers or chancres, but from these the whole system became contaminated, for we find that pustules were spread over the whole body; and that these pustules, or that this eruption, had also seized upon the pudenda, we have proved by the statement, " that the pudenda soon after became inflamed, with a violent itching, which terminated in chancres that were attended with only a small discharge.
