Hernia-Delivered from the Knife

Alameda, Calif.

I had suffered from rupture (Hernia) for about a year, and with terrible burning itchings and eruptions for five months. I consulted several physicians, none of whom were able to give me relief. They said that there was no help in such a case except to face a surgical operation. When I refused to be operated upon, my son took me to the FONG WAN HERB SPECIALIST. I drank his herbs for three months, by the end of which time I was free from all my suffering. The wonderful FONG WAN HERBS, coupled with the skill of their specialist, delivered me from the knife.
