Numerous are the contrivances to control or prevent seminal emissions. They have all failed, and nothing is lost; as only the effect is looked upon in their construction, and not the true nature of the disease; therefore, to prevent spermal losses is not the first object to accomplish, but to relieve the nerve-centers, which preside over the manufacture of semen, of these abnormal structural changes; and the loss of semen will abate. No instrument will then be required; and if this centric improvement cannot be effected, the patient is beyond help. No mechanical contrivance will relieve the centric lesions; therefore, such appliances are useless. The loss of semen is not a disease, only a manifestation or a phenomenon of centric lesions; and as we have said heretofore that spermatorrhœa is not even a cause of such lesions; but sexual shocks, often repeated for a long time, are the cause of the neurosis through which we have spermal losses――true spermatorrhœa. This reiteration is made that no mistake may be made in interpreting the means of relief, which are all aimed at the lesions instead of their phenomena. When the patient is not too much debilitated, chloral may be administered to produce sleep; but very commonly the ergot or ergotine will allay all nervous irritation and bring on perfect rest. Large doses are demanded, as much as two grains of Beaujon’s extract three times per day, or one drachm of Squibb’s fld. ext. or an ext. of equal strength should be used. Belladonna should be used by commencing with small doses and gradually increasing until asthenopia is produced, when small doses should again be used: by this means the extent of tolerance may be ascertained, and that dose should be continued which does not affect the eye. When the bladder is involved and urine is voided with a lack of expulsive energy, or the urine dribbles away, ergot and belladonna are the remedies. Where there is extensive hyperæsthesia the bromides are better agents, and also to overcome any reflex irritations. Hot applications to the spine are often followed by very excellent effects, as the relief of pain and other troublesome symptoms. Cold water to the hands, feet and genitals is often followed by surprising results, and should be used night and morning for a long period of time――many months. Tonics do great injury in this class of cases. Quinia, strychnia, phosphorus and iron should never be used in any form. _Electricity._――The downward, constant current, alternated with Faradisation, is indispensable to satisfactory results in the majority of the cases of the congestive type; using the galvanic one day, and the induced the next day, with general Faradisation, if it be followed by pleasant effects and relief of unpleasant nervous symptoms. Stimulating food, as well as alcoholic and malt liquors, should be proscribed; yet a generous diet is at all times indispensable. Opiates should not be administered, even for the relief of pain.
