-
A spasmodic or rheumatic affection, generally seated in the muscles of the chest, and, ordinarily, in the intercostals. It is usually augmented by outward pressure, inspiration, coughing, exertion, moving the thorax, and sometimes even the corresponding arm. It is unaccompanied by fever, cough, or dyspnoea, excepting under the form of a stitch, when dyspnoea exists. It is, generally, by no means obstinate, and yields promptly to warm applications and to cupping or leeches. If it still resists, a blister will, almost always, remove it.
