Reason for useNash

All acute inflammatory diseases present prominent head symptoms, pain, red puffed face, throbbing carotids and delirium, and spasms, or jerks and twitchings. Eyes staring, red, blood-shot and pupils first contracted, then greatly dilated. Mouth and throat very dry, red, sometimes greatly swollen; all mucous surfaces correspondingly dry and hot. Pains appear suddenly, and after a while disappear as suddenly as they came. Skin very red and hot, fairly radiates heat; burns the hand touching it, but sweats on covered parts. Several inflammations which streak out in radii from a center.


▲ Worse after 3 P. M. or after midnight from uncovering, or draft of air, and lying down
