Boils, carbuncles and furuncles. \nCOMMENTS - George Royal wrote of his experiences with Echi -p. He used it for furuncles with a dry skin. \nSmall boils (\u201ccat boils\u201d), very sensitive and seemed to come in crops, more about the neck and shoulders. \nCarbuncles with profuse sanguino-purulent discharge, marked large sloughing, coming in crops mostly about \nthe neck, sometimes on perineum. \nRoyal would usually give such patients \nEchinacea purpurea five drops of the 1st every three hours and apply a hot solution of 1 part of the tincture \nto 9 of water; changing the application often. He noted that it could be used in a similar manner to treat bruised \nor lacerated wounds. \n \n \nIt cured a case of a strumous, young bricklayer whose hand and fingers were to be amputated because of \nsymptoms of sepsis (i. e., enlargement of the glands under the arms and temperature).  \nEchinacea 1c internally and tincture locally checked the sepsis and saved the fingers. In this case the skin and \nmuscles were brought as nearly as possible to normal position and the Echinacea applied and changed every \nhour for 48 hours. \nRoyal used it successfully, only once, for suppurative appendicitis, i.e., after pus  had formed and evacuated \ninto the intestines. Merc, and Hepar had both failed to heal but Echinacea 1c, five drops every night and \nmorning for three weeks, cured. \nUsed with success in recurring attacks of chronic inflammation about the cecum, and in a few cases of typhoid \nwhen the tired feeling was the ranking symptom."},"schema_version":"1.0","api_provider":"Allahshafi"}
