Post-Nasal Catarrh and Diseases of the Nose Causing Deafness (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Post-Nasal Catarrh and Diseases of the Nose Causing Deafness

The present volume deals with a department of disease subsidiary to that which is usually considered the special domain of the aural surgeon. It has for its subject the catarrhal lesions of the naso-pharynx, of which ear disease and deafness are secondary and later issues. These ante cedent conditions, in many instances, persist along with their contributory defects in the organs of hearing; and it is matter of experience that, when this is the case, treatment directed simply to alleviate the ear mischief will result in disappointment.

For these reasons it has appeared to the author that he could in no more practical way add to the usefulness of this edition than by introducing some account of the diseases of the nose and adjacent organs which lead up to deafness, with the methods of treatment which have approved themselves to him.
