-
Any substance which, when applied to the skin, irritates it, and occasions a serous secretion, raising the epidermis, and inducing a vesicle. Various articles produce this effect, as cantharides, mustard, garou, euphorbium, garlic, ammonia, &c. Blisters are used as counter-irritants. By exciting a disease artificially on the surface, we can often remove another which may be at the time existing internally. A perpetual blister is one that is kept open for a longer or a shorter time by means of appropriate dressings.

Ercle, also means the vesicle produced by vesicatories or other causes.
