Reply to Dr Armstead about the case of Mr Stringfellows, which Cullen considers 'an intriguing one'. He believes it to be 'a local affection and purely an affection of the skin owing perhaps to an hereditary confirmation', and suggests continued bathing, mezereon, and electricity. | August? 1782? | |||
