Experience with parenteral sulfur therapy of rheumatic arthritis

Abstract

So far it is necessary to admit that the most rational ways of treatment effective for various joint diseases, without distinguishing their etiology and pathogenesis, are methods of physical therapy and first of all treatment at resorts with sulfur baths and muds containing sulfur compounds. It is clear that such treatments can be available for relatively small number of patients and can be carried out only in certain places and at certain times of the year, so that in everyday practice in the vast majority of our Union they are not available in ordinary medical institutions. In the best cases these methods of treatment are replaced by cakes of imported mud or by dry-air and other thermal procedures. In view of the above, the attempt of the French authors to introduce the treatment of joint rheumatic diseases by parenteral administration of sulfur seems to be highly interesting from the practical point of view.
