It happens that a person falls on the liver or receives a push or blow to it; then it is necessary to quickly correct the damage so that it does not cause hemorrhage or a large tumor. If a tumor has already formed, then it is treated with the drugs against any tumor after a blow, which we mentioned.
Sometimes it happens that a large process from the processes of the liver moves from its place due to a blow, especially if the blow was strong; then after the blow, pain appears under the right hypochondrium. Displacement also occurs after a jump or fall, and in this case it is corrected by pressing on the liver, moving the one with whom it happened, and forcing him to straighten his chest and stand on his feet. Then the pain immediately subsides, and the process returns to its place. In other cases, one should start with bloodletting, and if there is a strong fever, then give water and lubricate with cooling and distracting medicines; if blood comes out, then add astringents. When there is no strong fever and bleeding or the bleeding that has taken place has subsided and ended and your goal is only to dissolve the blood, if it is dead, then use dissolving agents. Nothing works in this case like smearing with mumiyo and lily oil. In all these cases, the medicines mentioned in the paragraph on tumors arising from shock help.
Here is a good medicine for this disease at the beginning of it and in case of intense heat and inflammation or if bleeding is feared. Copybook. Take rhubarb, pomegranate flowers, dragon's blood and Yemenite alum - in equal parts; at one time they give you a misqal with quince juice to drink. If there is no high fever and you want to use medications with a distracting, somewhat dissolving and, at the same time, adhesive property, then the following composition will be beneficial:
Copybook. Amber - ten dirhams, melilot - ten dirhams, roses - five dirhams, acacia - four, Indian sumbul, saffron - six each, mastic, incense peels - four each, Armenian clay - seven, cypress cones - eight. All this is kneaded with plantain juice and turned into flat cakes, a miskal each. Another good medicine: take muriyafiliyun - ten dirhams, washed lacq - seven, Chinese rhubarb - four, saffron - three dirhams and a half, thyme - four dirhams, black chickpeas - seven dirhams, myrrh - five dirhams, Armenian clay - ten, soaked in iris oil in which the mumiyo was placed. From all this they prepare cakes and give them to drink; Each time they drink up to three dirhams. Chinese rhubarb and seal clay, if mixed with a little myrtle berries, are one of the most useful things for such a disease, as I myself have experienced. And at the end of the disease, when there is no need to fear the burning and swelling that was feared before, one should give cakes of this kind to drink: take rhubarb, lacquer and ginger and prepare cakes from them; sometimes they put a little orpiment in them - it is remarkably strong against bruises and promotes the resorption of blood. These cakes are given to drink and then the liver area is lubricated with the following ointment:
Copybook. They take aloe wood, saffron, laurel drupes, bdelium, fragrant reed, mastic, wax, lily oil, maysusan and apply it as a bandage.
