Excerpt from The Practice of Medicine, Vol. 2 of 2: A Treatise on Special Pathology and Therapeutics Where a fatal termination has taken place in the course of the affection, death has arisen from some acute internal in ammation; and no morbid appearance whatever has been discoverable in the kidneys. Treatment. It is difficult to suggest any philosophical mode of meeting the disease. Should evidences of excitement present them selves, they must be reduced by appropriate antiphlogistics. Coun ter-irritation, by means of a seton, has done some good at first; but the system has speedily become accustomed to it. It is a consolation, however, that the constitutional disturbance - as before remarked - is often exceedingly slight, or null; and that a person may be affected with it for years, without the system appearing to suffer. In such cases, it ought not to be interfered with; especially as we know of no rational means for removing it.
