Bruise

This is a blood stain, either from fresh red blood or from old, dead dark blood, poured out from some blood vessels that have burst in the eye, for example due to a blow or other reason for which the vessels burst: from overflow or from a tumor when it bursts , this happens from a strong cry, from sudden movements, and sometimes a bruise occurs from boiling blood in the vessels. Due to bruising from the blow, a slight tear in the pupil sometimes occurs. The tear towards the connective membrane is benign.

Treatment. The blood of a pigeon or dove, or pigeon and wood pigeon, especially blood taken from under the wing, should be dripped onto the bruise. At the beginning of the disease, a few distracting agents are mixed into the blood, for example, clay, which is called Kimolos, and Armenian clay. At the end of the disease, absorbable agents are mixed, even arsenic with printing clay. Sometimes they treat with human milk with incense and salt water, especially that in which Andaran salt or ammonia is dissolved. This especially helps if you add more incense. This medicine is dripped into the eye. Also very useful is dinarhun ointment and medicine prepared from pepper stone and anzarut - in equal parts - and from as much arsenic as both of these substances together; sometimes they add more Andaran salt and prepare an ointment.

It happens that a medicinal bandage of burnt potash with wine or vinegar or other mentioned remedies is applied externally, especially when there is a tumor. Also used are fresh cheese, asafoetida, lightly salted ... radish peel, sweet clover with dragon's blood or licorice root, saffron and lentils with rose oil and egg yolk. The patient should also bend over the water in which hyssop and satar are boiled, and also make lotions with this water alone or with vinegar in which the ashes were boiled; or make a lotion with an infusion of bana with sabur or an infusion of wild safflower, or an infusion of saffron, a decoction of chamomile with melilot, or the squeezed juice of both of them, or a decoction of cabbage leaves. A medicinal dressing is also made from boiled and crushed cabbage leaves. For severe and chronic bruising, a medicinal bandage is made from crushed mustard mixed with double the amount of fig pulp, or from arsenic dissolved in milk and ash boiled in wine, or azhgon or hyssop in cow's milk. If, along with a bruise, a rupture occurs in the connective membrane, then chew cumin with salt and drip saliva into the eye. Willow leaves are also very useful for medicinal dressings.
