Did writers prescribe a silver ring for a scorpion sting?
Cowan records an older prescription, attributed to Diophanes’ collection of earlier writers’ opinions: apply a silver ring to the site of a scorpion sting[1]. This is a report of what was recommended, not evidence that the ring treated the sting or its venom.
