- Title
Skin Abnormalities.
- Abstract
The article presents information on skin abnormalities. Again, with respect to marks, moles, and other blemishes in the skin, take the evidence of one who was the first physiologist, anatomist, and physician accoucheur of his day, the late Dr. William Hunter, who investigated this subject at the lying-in hospital to which he was attached. In every one of 2000 cases of labor, as soon as the woman was delivered, he inquired of her whether she had been disappointed in any object of her longing and, if she replied in the affirmative, what it was;-whether she had been surprised by any circumstance that had given her any unusual shock and what that consisted of;-whether she had been alarmed by any object of an unsightly kind and what that was.
