These absce es, which are of extreme gravity, develop suddenly in the subcutaneous or the inter muscular Cellular ti ue, without having been preceded by any manifest local inflammation. They very rapidly acquire a large size, and are accompanied by high fever. When the absce bursts, the pus appears of good character, but is remarkably fœtid, Sometimes it becomes more serous and quite abundant in the course of a few days; in other cases the first absce dries up suddenly, and others follow in great numbers, A foetid, serous diarrhcea sets in, and this and the discharge from the absce es rapidly undermine the tient’s strength.
