The Signs and Causes of Tertian Fever

Abstract

When this fever flourishes, that returns every third dawn, it causes rigor and vomiting, headache and a sharp heat that runs throughout the body, thirst and laboured breathing. The eyes can not close at night, the golden sparkling urine turns dull yellow, the pulse is once more hard and bounding and the attack ends in a sweat. And the cause of this is that bitter scorching bile that wastes the body with intermittent fever.
