"The antiphlogistic effects of cold compresses are readily explained by the results of Genzmer's experiments upon local blood letting. He came to the conclusion that the favorable effect of bleeding upon the inflamed parts beneath was ascribable, not to their becoming more anemic, but to the fact that the blood stream became more rapid, and thus the corpuscles which had adhered to the vessel walls were loosened and driven into the general circulation. The fluxion therefore, which the applicatio...n of cold or warm compresses produces, in the parts below them, is the true cause of the changes in the latter when inflamed. Thus may the old theory of derivation be satisfactorily explained. "This effect of cold applications may be called into action in some local inflammations in which the parts appear cyanotic and it is important to pre- vent impending suppuration. Here hot compresses or cataplasms are also useful to arouse the surface circulation; as they cool off, they widen the deeper vessels and thus re-establish the circulation which has become stag- nant.
