Though IL may appear strange TO Ms
who think we are familiar with the
commoner forms Of neuralgia, or nerve
pain. such az toothache, headache and
the like. IL is not easy always to say
whether the pain we are suffering be
really neuralgia pure and simple.
In point Of fact, neuralgia is name
for q condition rather than disease.
and only implies that in the course Of
the nerve in question there is pain that
Is not caused by any disease Of the parts
supplied by that nerve or Of the nerve
itself.
The causes Of neuralgia. then, are to
be found in conditions outside of the
trouble itself. For instance, there may
be tumor pressing upon the nerve and
continually irritating it. In the same
way foreign bodies. such as bullets, may
set up persistent neuralgia. Ends Of
nerves. by becoming involved in the
contraction Of scar. may become sufi-
ciently compressed to give rise to un-
bearable pain. Sometimes veins that
are near nerves, or follow their course
through long, bony canals. become sufh-
GENTLY distended to irritate the nerve.
Or there may be poison in the blood,
like malaria, arsenic or lead, which, by
lowering the general vitality Of the
body, contributes to q general nerve
weakness and irritability.
In large proportion Of cases the real
cause of neuralgia is so general as to be
quite obscure. The exciting cause-m

As many Of as know by experience,
the course Of an attack Of neuralgia is
extremely varied. The pain may be con-
tinuous. remittent or intermittent, tenn
porary or persistent. located at one spot
or diffused over large area, and may
be shooting. aching or burning in char

BY way Of treatment We may use 10
cally any good lipiment, blistering, hot

In the blood. Antirheumatics must, Of
course. be resorted to in cases Of rheu-

is nothing like absolute rest and regular

Morphine or other opiates should be
used but sparingly in neuralgia, and
never in cases Of debility or old age.-
