LIVER, Acute Inflammation of. The office of the liver is to take the superabundant carbon out of the blood This carbon unites with other elements, and forms bile the peculiar bitter sub- stance which is poured into the upper bowel, and greatly aids digestion. The liver is liable to become inflamed from several causes: such as gravel-stones, external violence, suppressed se- cretions, hot climates, inflammation of the duo- denum, etc. The symptoms of acute inflammation of this organ are, fever, ...with pain in the right side, and a sense of tension, inability to lie on the left side, difficulty of breathing, a dry cough, vom- iting and hiccough. The pain is generally acute and lancinating, though sometimes dull and ten- sive. When sharp, it is like the stitch of pleurisy, and it indicates that the peritoneum which covers the liver is inflamed. When dull, it is in the body of the liver itself. The pulse is full, hard and strong, the bowels costive, and the stools clay- colored, owing to not being tinged with bile this having stopped flowing.
