Diseases attended with paroxysms, if at the same hour that the fever leaves it return again next day, are of difficult crisis.
31
In febrile diseases attended with a sense of lassitude, deposits form about the joints, and especially those of the jaws.
32
In convalescents from diseases, if any part be pained, there deposits are formed.
33
But if any part be in a painful state previous to the illness, there the disease fixes.
34
If a person laboring under a fever, without any swelling in the fauces, be seized with a sense of suffocation suddenly, it is a mortal symptom.
35
If in a person with fever, the become suddenly distorted, and he cannot swallow unless with difficulty, although no swelling be present, it is a mortal symptom.
36
Sweats, in febrile diseases, are favorable, if they set in on the third, fifth, seventh, ninth, eleventh, fourteenth, seventeenth, twenty-first, twenty-seventh, and thirty-fourth day, for these sweats prove a crisis to the disease; but sweats not occurring thus, indicate pain, a protracted disease, and relapses.
37
Cold sweats occurring with an acute fever, indicate death; and along with a milder one, a protracted disease.
38
And in whatever part of the body there is a sweat, it shows that the disease is seated there.
39
And in whatever part of the body heat or cold is seated, there is disease.
40
And wherever there are changes in the whole body, and if the body be alternately cold and hot, or if one color succeed another, this indicates a protracted disease.
