Reply with directions on regimen, particularly the need for winter exercise, for 'Mr _______ of Christiansund' (Kristiansund, Norway). Cullen recommends diet, exercise and the flesh brush, and supplies laxative and diaphoretic prescriptions. Not categorised as a formal 'Regimen', because these instructions are not actually enumerated, it largely follows the usual form for such instructions. | 11 July 1774 | |||
