Phlegmon

You already know what phlegmon is, and you know its symptoms: heat, inflammation, increased tissue volume, tension and resistance to pressure, as well as beating, if the phlegmon is deep and close to the arteries and if a nerve goes to the affected organ, making it sensitive, not like many other insides, the qualities of which you already know. The larger and more numerous the arteries, the stronger the beating and the whiter the tumor, and the faster the tumor or pus accumulation occurs. If the phlegmon is in a sensitive organ, then whatever it is, it is accompanied by severe pain and the small vessels of this organ that were previously invisible are sure to become visible.

Know that the name phlegmon in the Greek language means any inflammation; then this is the name given to any hot tumor, and then to a hot tumor that has the mentioned qualities and is not free from inflammation due to retention of blood and blockage of pores. It rarely happens that phlegmon is simple - in most cases it accompanies erysipelas, hardening or swelling.

Cellulitis occurs from various reasons. These include previous, physical causes, for example, overflow or malignancy of juices with weakness of the receiving organ, or simply weakness of the receiving organ, although there is neither overflow nor malignant juices. They also include external causes - ruptures, cuts, fractures or dislocations, as well as numerous ulcers on the organ, to which the matter is then directed due to pain and weakness. Sometimes the juices are directed towards the organ and get stuck in the passages, which are even weaker; Thus, with ulcers and painful jarab, tumors appear in hollow places. The intensification of the disease is evident from the increase in the volume and intensity of the tumor, and the period of limit is from the fact that the volume of the tumor reaches a limit, and then, if the tumor suppurates, the accumulation of pus begins. A period of decline is indicated by the fact that the tumor becomes softer and weaker.

Malignant phlegmon is one that does not begin to fall off and does not collect pus, and this leads to the death and decay of the organ. The reason for this is often the large size of the tumor and the abundance of matter, and often it occurs from the malignancy of the matter, even if the tumor is small.

You will know that the matter is dissolving when the beating begins to calm down and the inflammation subsides, and you will know that the tumor is gaining pus by the intensification and stability of the beating and heat; decay is determined by the difficulty of ripening, dark color and strong tension of the tumor. Know that until nature overcomes matter, it does not form a tumor or phlegmon on the outer integument of the body; know also that when purulent pimples are located next to each other, this foreshadows a festering boil. A person suffering from internal tumors should be given chicory juice and black nightshade juice with cassia laxative scales.
