It is a very ‘common condition, especially with women, and in my opinion is the cause of about half of the disorders of women. Such prolapsed ‘ organs can usually be restored to their prop- er place through graduated’ calis- thenic exercises, particularly those taken while lying on the back. Diet 4s of importance, inasmuch as it af- fects the general health, but the ex- ercising is the most important. ° Prostatic Trouble Question: Mrs. J. writes: “A man 87 years old has a pain in the back of the head and stiff neck for weeks at a time. Is this a symptom of a stroke? What can he do for relief?” Answer: The pain of stiffness in the back of the neck with a man of advanced age is almost sure to be a sign of prostatic congestion. This neck trouble is simply a reflex from the prostatic disorder. The distress would be made worse by high blood Pressure, and if that exists, the con- tinued pain might be evidence of the danger of paralysis or apoplexy. X-ray Burns Question: B. R. writes: “Please ad- Vise if there is any possible cure for X-ray burns, or a remedy for enlarged vessels caused by the use of X-ray.” Answer: X-ray burns must be treated very carefully, according to their severity. Treatments with the actinic light should prove beneficial, and I would advise you to consult some local physician regarding these treatments. (Copyright, 1930, by The Bell Syndicate, Inc.)
