"The carbolic acid treatment of hemorrhoids is now receiving
considerable attention. Hence the reprint from the _Pittsburgh Medical
Journal_, November, 1883, of an article on the subject by Dr. George B.
Fundenberg is both timely and interesting. After relating six cases, the
author says: "It would serve no useful purpose to increase this list of
cases. The large number I have on record all prove that this treatment
is safe and effectual. I believe that the great majority of cases can be
cured in this manner. Whoever doubts this should give the method a fair
trial, for it is only those who have done so, that are entitled to speak
upon the question."
