pyrexia

Not a trace of wind in the humid pyrexia of mid-afternoon.

The pulse is often full, hard, and bounding; the headache throbbing or darting in character; the tendency to somnolence increases, or gives place to delirium; and the pyrexia is more marked.

The superficial appearance of pyrexia is sometimes given by a local vaso-motor paralysis, which makes the neuralgic part, after a long bout of pain, hot and red; but of general pyrexia there is nothing.

It was accompanied by pyrexia, gastro-enteritis, deep-seated pains in limbs and body, and burning and pricking of the skin.

Caroline DeS. had short periods of marked pyrexia in the first and seventh months of her long psychosis.
