Page 195 - Inflamed spots now begin to appear on different parts of the hands of the domestics employed in milking, and sometimes on the wrists, which quickly run on to suppuration, first assuming the appearance of the small vesications produced by a burn. Most commonly they appear about the joints of the fingers and at their extremities; but whatever parts are affected, if the situation will admit, these superficial suppurations put on a circular form, with their edges more elevated than their centre, and...

Page 474 - Slight or no constitutional symptoms (particularly including gastric or intestinal disturbances or rapid loss of weight). Slight or no elevation of temperature or acceleration of pulse at any time during the twenty-four hours, especially after rest. Expectoration usually small in amount or absent. Tubercle bacilli may be present or absent.
Page 229 - The combined reaction represents the positive and the pseudo reaction in the same individual. The central area of redness is larger and better defined, the amount of infiltration is also more marked. The reaction is recognized by noting the evidence of a true reaction, a definite area of scaling brownish pigmentation, after the pseudo element has disappeared in the test.
