S.A. Vrushtein. To the question of the treatment of neuralgia with ultraviolet rays. - Medical newspaper of 1910 № 15
For the treatment of neuralgia, Dr. Brushtein used the light of a mercury-quartz lamp prof. Kromayer. Of the 57 cases, recovery was achieved in 43, a significant improvement in 11, and only in 3 cases there was no improvement. The number of sessions required to stop pain ranged from 1 to 10, the duration of each session was from 1 to several minutes; the beams were strained from a distance of 5-7 cnm. from the quartz window of the lamp, mainly to sore points less often - labile along the nerve. The sessions were repeated after 3-4 days. In some cases, the pain decreased immediately after the session, and in most cases after 24-30 hours. The author advises the use of ultraviolet rays in all cases of neuralgia, regardless of their cause, intensity and duration.
