Abstract
A method of treating folliculitis and other cutaneous infected conditions by an electrical spark discharge at the location of the cutaneous lesion, with intensity and duration sufficient to cause inhibition or destruction of the causative infective agent. Significant or permanent damage to the normal tissue or other harmful result is avoided by the utilization of a low discharge power and a short duration of application, as well as by an indirect application of the discharge.
