Excerpt from Synopsis of Modern Practical Surgery: By a Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, London
The principal symptoms of local inflammation, are redness, increased heat, pain, swelling, and interruptions or loss of function.
But each of these symptoms are not present in every case of inflammation: as in many instances only one or two of them are to be observed. Though inflammation of the internal, as well as the external parts, certainly are one or more of these symptoms invariably present.
The degree, continuance, and effects, are not the same in every instance; as they are influenced and modified by various circumstances; but principally by the constitution of the patient, the cause of the inflammation, its extent, the organization of the part affected, its sensibility, and its importance in the animal economy.
Inflammation is divided into healthy and unhealthy, common and specific, acute and chronic.
Healthy is that which occurs in a constitution in which there exists no derangement of the health, either local or general, to effect or influence the inflammatory action.
