THE PRACTICAL
HOME PHYSICIAN AND ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MEDICINE
The biggy of the late 1800's. Clearly shows the massive inroads in medical science and the treatment of disease.

ALCOHOL AND THE HUMAN BODY In fact alcohol was known to be a poison, and considered quite dangerous. Something modern medicine now agrees with. This was known circa 1907. A very impressive scientific book on the subject.

DISEASES OF THE SKIN is a massive book on skin diseases from 1914. Don't be feint hearted though, it's loaded with photos that I found disturbing.

Flexions.

Flexions: A bending in the direction of the uterus, so that the top of the organ is curved backward or forward-in other words, a flexion - is one of the most common of uterine complaints. The accompanying symptoms vary somewhat, not only according to the severity of the complaint, but also according to whether the organ is bent forward or backward. The causes have already been enumerated in discussing displacements of the womb in general.

Symptoms.-A certain degree of displacement, either backward or forward, may last for years without directing the attention of the individual to these organs. Yet, sooner or later, some or all of the following symptoms are usually manifested : Pain in back and loins ; irritability of bladder and rectum ; derangements of menstruation ; leucorrhcea ; inability for physical exertion.

In many cases the patient is actually bedridden and may remain so for years. Some of these cases can be rapidly restored to health by simply returning the womb to its proper position ; yet, in the majority of cases, the long-continued interference with health results in a series of complications which make successful treatment extremely difficult. Among these complications are dysmenorrhcea, sterility, inflammation of the uterus and of adjoining structures, tendency to abortion.

Treatment. - The same measures which have been recommended as promoting the restoration of a prolapsed womb are useful in overcoming the different flexions and versions of the uterus. These latter, too, must be treated by the physician with pessaries ; but he must be the judge of the sort to be employed and the mode of application. It will generally be advisable in these cases of flexions and versions for the woman to remain in bed for three or four days after the first insertion of the instrument.
