Q Our son developed a sure mouth and the doctor said it was trench mouth. He gave him penicillin and arsenic shots and has him use peroxide as a mouth wash but, after live months, his mouth is still sore. What causes it? Is it contagious'.' A Trench mouth or Vincent's angina is caused by a germ known as Borrelia vincentii. It is believed to be transmitted through contaminated eating uten ' sils so, in order to protect other members of the family, all dish es used by your son should be boiled. j.? The disease may also be spread bv kissing. Vigorous treatment with the - drugs your doctor is now using 'usually clears up this condition ,Miut when penicillin fails, another- ; antibiotic, tetracycline, should be - tried. Some cases are difficult to treat and in such cases the doc- tor should work in close coopera tion with a dentist because the disease cannot exist in gums prop J'crly cared for. Q What does it mean when you I see rainbow-colored rings around lights at night? I have been J wearing glasses since 1945 but have been seeing the rainbows only recently. v A This could be due to a film I of grease on your glasses but if .v this were the cause the rain- bows would disappear when you -looked at the lights without your I glasses or if you cleaned your glasses with soap and water or '. silica paper. The commonest cause of rainbows around lights is I glaucoma. Since this is a serious J condition for which early treat- ment is necessary to save your sight, you should see your eye doctor without delay. Q Can a very nervous per son have a normal child? Woulc pregnancy help such a person 01 ivuuld it make her worse? Woulc evcre nervousness in the mother cause p. child to be deformed? A A person who is cxtremeh nervous would have as good v raance as anyone else ol hav ming a child that was physically normal at birth but such a per on would be unlikely to provide the calm surroundings that would insure the best chance (or the child's normal emotional develop ment. Although pregnancy would not necessarily make a nervous person more nervous, it would certainly not cure the nervous ness. Your best course would be to seek aid in getting over the nervousness and then decide whether or not you want to have a child. Q I have had myositis in my legs for two vears and it is get- ging worse. Aspirin and codeine do not help. I get very little sleep when it is bad. Cortisone helped some at first but doesn't help now. What treatment do you ad vise? A Since chronic myositis or Inflammation of a muscle sheath is often due to some focus of in fection i the teeth, nasal sinuses or gall bladder i. a careful search should be made for such a cause. Many a sufferer has been cured of myositis almost overnight follow ing the removal of a crowned tooth that had a painless smol dering abscess at its roots. The drugs you have been taking arc the ones usually prescribed. They usually give some relief but, since they do not remove the cause, the relief is short-lived. Applying an electric pad for 20 to 30 minutes two or three times a day often gives more lasting relief than the pills but even that docs not usual ly get rid of the cause.
