Can You Treat Skin Boils with Violet Rays?

Early American Energy Medicine

The Marvel Violet Ray Book of Instructions
Eastern Laboratories, Inc.
Undated (Early Twentieth Century)

...All human ailments, with the exception of highly infectious and contagious diseases, are traceable to one cause: Imperfect circulation and impoverished blood.

During our youth, when we take plenty of exercise, enjoy sound sleep, our blood is rich and we insured of a copious supply to every part of our body.

Gradually, as we grow older, we pursue a more sedate mode of living and our circulation slows down at the same time. The flow of blood through our veins is slower and our whole body suffers.

Return of Sleep.

What is The Meaning Of Folliculitis?

The noun folliculitis has one meaning:

inflammation of a hair follicle

Folliculitis, is inflammation of one or more hair follicles. The condition may occur anywhere on the skin.

Folliculitis starts when hair follicles are damaged by friction from clothing, blockage of the follicle, or shaving.

In most cases of folliculitis, the damaged follicles are then infected with the bacteria Staphylococcus (staph).

Barber's itch is a staph infection of the hair follicles in the bearded area of the face, usually the upper lip.

Shaving aggravates the condition.

Tinea barbae is similar to barber's itch, but the infection is caused by a fungus.

Pseudofolliculitis barbae is a disorder occurring primarily in men of African extraction.

If curly beard hairs are cut too short, they may curve back into the skin and cause inflammation.
