| | Dropsy |
 | | If a person is suddenly attacked with dropsy of the lungs, there is rapid, labored breathing, much rattling in the chest, and a sense of severe oppression. | | | In such a case, while the physician is being summoned, the friends of the sufferer may help much by the administration of stimulants, whiskey being good, and by the application of mustard to the chest, followed by a hot poultice. | | | The nursing of dropsical patients is always a difficult task for the nurse, who deserves corresponding credit when she is successful in making the patient comfortable and keeping up his courage. |
