To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If, however, for any reason, the wound is distended in taking food, the surgeon must be equal to the emergency by placing tubes in throat or nostrils or by providing for rectal alimen- tation. There is generally a tendency to cough from the presence of blood or other liquids or excessive secretions due to the irritation. This must be repressed by the administration of codeine or opium. Sometimes, especially if there is no tearing open of the wound, there may be little cicatrization. Occasionall...y fistulous openings remain, which always must be covered, both for appearances and to preserve the function of phonation, or a plastic operation may be done to fill the breach. If stenosis of the trachea or larynx result from cicatricial contraction, it is best corrected by gradual dilation, though persistent efforts in this direction are sometimes wholly fruitless. Foreign Bodies in the Air-passages. — No accident is more common than the entrance of some substance into the air-passages. It may occur during the act of sw^allowing, when for some reason the epiglottis has failed to close normally, or if something is being held in the mouth, a careless habit in which no one should indulge, and to which children are especially prone, a sudden inspiration may carry it into the larynx, where it may remain or pass on into the trachea.
