""A Treatise On The Cure Of Ulcers By Fumigation: In Which A Rational Treatment Is Deduced From The Physiology Of Ulceration"" is a medical book written by George Alfred Walker and published in 1847. The book focuses on the treatment of ulcers through fumigation, which involves exposing the affected area to medicated vapors. Walker argues that this method is more effective than traditional treatments such as surgery or topical ointments. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which discusses a different aspect of fumigation therapy. Walker begins by explaining the physiology of ulceration and how fumigation can help to heal ulcers. He then goes on to describe the various types of ulcers and the specific fumigation treatments that are best suited for each type. Throughout the book, Walker provides detailed instructions on how to administer fumigation therapy, including the types of herbs and other substances that should be used. He also discusses the potential risks and side effects of fumigation, as well as how to avoid them. Overall, ""A Treatise On The Cure Of Ulcers By Fumigation"" is a comprehensive guide to a lesser-known medical treatment that was popular in the 19th century. While some of the information and techniques may be outdated by modern medical standards, the book provides a fascinating glimpse into the history of medical practices and the ongoing search for effective treatments for common ailments.And Proofs Afforded That The New Method Produces More Speedy, Certain, And Permanent Effects, Than Any Other In General Use, With An Analysis Of The Modes Of Cure Hitherto Employed, And An Exposition Of The Decided Advantages Possessed By The New Treatment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
