Re: Tobacco Smoke Enema Tool
Hernia Tool (1850s) This unique tool was used after the restoration of a hernia. It was inserted into the body near the affected area and left there for a week to produce scar tissue that would help seal off the hernia. Ouch..   · |

Re: Tobacco Smoke Enema Tool
there are modern day versions of some of these instruments that i have seen ....alot hasnt changed that much, just how the instruments are made. hernias are repaired using a proline mesh to patch the hernia site, im so glad they dont use those instruments for that cos it would be a bitch to set up for the surgeon...
