"If the dilator causes pain at first, it only indicates great need of the treatment" so

Price $3.75 Per Set (In United States), Sold only in sets

Dr. Young's Ideal Self Retaining Rectal Dilators, for the intelligent treatment of Piles, Constipation, Nervousness, Dyspepsia, Headache, Rheumatism, Insomnia, Asthma, Indigestion, Eczema, and diseases caused by sluggish circulation, malnutrition, defective elimination and the abuse of cathartic drugs.

For women - Wonderfully beneficial during pregnancy, and before and during period.

For men - Particularly recommended in prostatic troubles.

Directions - Select a size that can be inserted without discomfort. Lubricate with vaseline or with Dr. Young's Pile Ointment, and while in a squatting position or while lying on the side with the knees drawn up, gently insert in the rectum as far as the flange or rim. Hold in place for a minute and the rectal muscles will close around and retain it. The dilator should be allowed to remain for half and hour or an hour to get the best results, though even if retained but a few minutes it will accomplish much good.

When ready to use a larger size it is best to use the next smaller size for a few minutes, inserting and withdrawing it several times. This should not be overlooked.

Use at any convenient time and only good should follow. Their regular use tones and strengthens the muscles. If used at night they will be found a great promoted of natural refreshing sleep. Their use in the morning induces natural bowel action and at a time generally favored by nature.

To obtain the best results, the dilators should be used once each day. Use them while sitting or when lying down. If used when sitting, a pressure is brought to bear on the parts which is a great advantage - especially in the case of piles. This pressure forces the congested blood from the parts and is highly beneficial.

Begin with a size you can use with ease and follow in order with larger sizes, using each size one, two, or three weeks according to your best judgement. If the dilator causes pain at first, it only indicates great need of the treatment, and the pain will decrease as the treatment progresses, or this may be relieved by using Dr. Young's Pile Ointment.

To clean - wash with warm or cold water and soap. Do not put them in boiling water.

Is there a website where I could learn more about this?

[-] MrFappy@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

I can only assume, “here, you’re gonna want to bite down on this.”

[-] ganksy@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

It's a game where you pass the lemon to a friend without it falling

Our record at the family reunion was 25 people in 7 minutes without dropping it.

[-] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It's a decorative version of the real lemons professionals use to practice their media-face.

I do not believe that this would help with nervousness.

[-] hOrni@lemmy.world 23 points 2 days ago

If You use it in the morning, You live the rest of the day with a feeling, that the worst is behind You.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 14 points 2 days ago

Or you could use a sausage and for the rest of the day the wurst is behind you.

[-] ganksy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

If you use it in the evening, technically, the worst is still behind you

I guess if you were headed to prison you'd be less nervous

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

The cure for nervousness, huh?

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

Anyone else read the label for laughs?

[-] Jax@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I could but at that size, angle, and picture quality — absolutely not.

[-] massacre@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

It says the rectal dialators can help with eyesight, too.

[-] bhamlin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

If that were true, I would be able to read that label.

If the wooden lemon is to scale, then I'm gonna need the kids version.

[-] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 6 points 2 days ago

Now you have me wondering if such a cursed item actually exists but I know better than to google what I would have to google.

[-] cron@feddit.org 8 points 2 days ago

Wikipedia page.

The devices were held to be "dangerous to health when used with the frequency and duration prescribed, recommended or suggested in the labeling", and the shipment was ordered to be destroyed.[4]

I'm naming my next band DEFECTIVE ELIMINATION.

[-] HowAbt2day@futurology.today 2 points 2 days ago

Self Retaining Rectal Dilutors ain’t too shabby either. A bit long but if RHCP can pull it off, so can SRRD.
