NEW TREATMENT FOR HAY FEVER
SUCCESSFUL RESULTS OBTAINED [. (British Official Wireless) RUGBY, 13th June. Treatment for hay fever, which has been given a trial over a period of five years at St. George’s Hospital in London, has proved successful in 99 per cent, of cases. The treatment involves the application by electricity of a coating of ionised zinc to the inside of the nostrils. Three or four applications are given, after which the majority of patients are free from attacks of ordinary hay fever for a year. Precautionary applications are given at the end of twelve months and again a year later, and after that there is usually no recurrence of the trouble.
