For the neurosis upon which impotence depends, I have accomplished very much by a single combination of medicine (see formula No. 1), that this preparation has been, as it were, a “stand-by” for many years; the patient gradually improving under its use, in nearly every case. I can affirm that it has been tested in hundreds of cases, in a great majority of which marked improvement has taken place, and many have been permanently cured. Many were cured before I became familiar with the importance of electricity in the treatment of such cases; but since having extensive experience with the various methods of applying electricity I confess I could not do well without it. As to the beneficial results following galvanism and Faradisation, there can be no question; but as to which of these forms should be applied, I am not always able to say. I have used galvanism without benefit, a certain length of time, and changed to Faradism with immediate improvement; and _vice versa_. I do not opine that either form, if used mildly, will often do harm; and where improvement does not follow after a reasonable length of time, I would advise a change. When the patient is wakeful and restless, a pleasant effect is produced by Faradisation, which is often a favorable sign, and may be continued with exalted expectations. In very advanced cases, the galvanic current will oftener establish an improvement, when a change to the Faradic current will continue the improvement. I consider no means of the physician demanding so much judgment and experience as electricity; and in the skilled operator’s hand much good may be realized from its use. A very natural manner of applying Faradisation in impotence, as well as other forms of sexual neurosis, is to seat the patient upon a large wet sponge, to which the negative is connected, bringing the scrotum and perineum well in contact with the sponge, and stroking the spinal column well with the positive, also using a wet sponge. The operator will be governed by the patient’s sensibilities, as to time of sitting and strength of current. The current should not be painful or very unpleasant; and if twenty minutes produces any uneasy sensation, the next application should not be continued longer than ten minutes. The galvanic current may be used in a similar manner. Beard & Rockwell’s method of general Faradisation is a most excellent one for alternate applications. A troublesome complication is often constipation of the bowels, which may be overcome by the judicious use of rhamnus purshiana. Not too much general bathing, but local bathing, as directed above, with stimulant friction, is always beneficial. Turkish baths, so often ordered, must be avoided, as great general debility and languor often follow their use. No undue warmth can be made use of, either in dressing or bathing, as the neurosis, upon which all these unnatural phenomena depend, is aggravated.
