Ulcers

The ancient Greek physician Hippocrates is often credited with being the first to identify ulcers as a medical condition. In his famous treatise On the Sacred Disease, Hippocrates describes ulcers as open sores that can occur on the skin or mucous membranes. He notes that ulcers are often painful and may be accompanied by fever, swelling, and redness. Read in English, unabridged.
