Question: "When Is rheumatism not rneumatism?"
Answer: "In about nine cases out
of ten."
With some people all aches and pains are called rheumatism, which is not necessarily true. Neuritis, arising from an impoverished condition of the blood, is a very painful condition often called rheumatism. Not uncommonly a floating kidney gives rise to pains
that are called rheumatism. Many ob
structions in, the bowels, or an en
gorged bile duct, causes mysterious pains, which the patients often call
rheumatism. But all this is not so important to the patient. What you want Is relief and you will probably have to see a doctor to get a perma
nent cure.
If you are suffering from any aches or pains, either acute or obsecure, I
invite you to call at my office for free examination, and if I think that my
radiant light or other electrical or manual treatments will be of value to you, I will be glad to be at your serv
ice for a very nominal fee.
I also treat all eye and ear, nose
and throat troubles, also stomach
