Abstract
Here there is inflammation in the very depth of the ear, and no swelling is visible, nor fiery redness, but the pain throbs and stings, with heat and fever: and then this ceases once pus is produced. It is hot and pungent blood that causes this, impinging on the eardrum and also on the nerve: and delirium and even death ensue with increase of the inflammation unless it is slight and small.
