DISEASES OF THE LIVER.
The liver is in the popular mind the scapegoat upon which is
laid the responsibility for many of the ailments to which the body
is liable. " Liver complaints " and " biliousness" are the banners
with which any number of patent medicine vendors, " liver pad "
makers, electric belt manufacturers, etc., assail the pockets of the
credulous. The fact is, that in our climate affections of the liver
which occasion appreciable symptoms are comparatively rare,
except as complications of other complaints; primary disease
of the liver itself, limited to the liver, is a by no means frequent
occurrence.
Among the most common affections involving the liver is the
catarrh of the stomach, small intestine and gall ducts, resulting in
the group of symptoms known as " biliousness. " The symptoms
of this affection vary according as the stomach is involved to a
greater or less degree ; there is usually vomiting of a greenish or
yellowish matter, constipation, pain in the head and over the
stomach, a bitter taste in the mouth, possibly a little yellowness of
the eyes or of the skin. Similar symptoms varying somewhat in
details maybe induced by
-Acute Inflammation of the Liver: treatment.

-Chronic Inflammation of the Liver : symptoms, treatment.
