Ifintolerance to more than a small current demonstrates sub-acute inflammation which must be allayed before taking thenext step, the treatment of this complication by measures de-scribed under a separate heading must precede active electrol-ysis. (See Pelvic Peri and Para Metritis.) The judgment obtained by a little practice with these methodsinstructs the physician when he can safely proceed to attackthe indurated hyperplasia. Place large felt-covered, flat electrodes, 7X 10 (well saturated. Fig. 122.
