- Your Health

By Lester L. Coleman, M.D.

by an itchy
problem

I have a terrible problem
and don’t know where to turn,
T have a terrible itch in my
privates. It’s driving me up
the wall. I'm ashamed to
discuss this with my doctor
who happens to be a neighbor
of ours. Do you think you can
help me? — Mrs. T.M., Iowa.
Dear Mrs. M.:

After years of writing about
Personal problems such as
yours I am disappointed to
realize that there are still
many people who are so un-
necessarily self-conscious that
they cannot discuss their
problems with their doctor,
neighbor or not. :

Confidentiality is a vital
aspect of the doctor-patient
relationship. You need not
fear that your doctor will
make your problem a neigh-
borhood topic of discussion.

Few people realize that
itching is but another form of
pain. There are many causes
of itching in the vaginal area
and, particularly, around the
anal opening. The exact cause
must be found anc carefully
studied if you are to be
telieved of this distressing
symptom,

Local infections, allergies,
drugs and poor hygiene are
the most common reasons for
persistent itching such as you
describe. When itching con-
tinues and when there is un-
controlled scratching, the skin
can be broken and the symp-
toms worsened.

Very recently, Dr. William
G. Friend, at the University of
Washington School of
Medicine in Seattle, suggested
that one of the most common
reasons for itching (pruritus
ani) may have its origin in the
consumption of coffee (de-
caffeinated or regular), tea,
cola, beer, chocolate or
tomatoes. ,

If, after examination by
your physician, no other cause
is found for the severe itching,
such a dietary limitation may
be beneficial. Yet it is im-
perative that eczerna of the
skin, fungus infections and
Parasites in the intestines be
first ruled out.

My greatest contribution to
you, of course, is the
suggestion that you adopt a
mature attitude towards your
problem and seek the medical

They are sometimes called
“felons, ‘“‘runarounds” or
“whitlows.”” A common cause
is long immersion of the hands
in strong detergents. The skin
becomes soft and irritated and
soon a germ invades the
tissue. This is followed by

redness, swelling and pus
formation.

Protect the hands with
rubber gloves when they are
immersed in water.
Lubrication of the hands with
a gentle ointment is soothing
and often protective.

(Part one of two)

Last October I travelled to the tiny village of

Bovingdon, England, to research the unbellevable

case of Graham Young. You may recall that Young

poisoned his family in ims when he was only
rol

husband, Eventually, iri 1957, Mr. Kemper left his
wife and never returned. Clarnell was to go to work
to support her three children. She would marry
twice again.
In the meantime Clarnell moved to Helena,
where she

as a
made a new home for her three

years old, nine
years later he proceeded to polson colleagues at his
place of employment in Bovingdon. After causing
wo deaths and many bouts of iliness, he was taken
into custody. In 1972 he was tried for murder,
convicted, and is presently in pi
je Young case received wor!
it went to the very heart of ma,
the western world has been 5
ears. Should our judicial system em
ilitation or punishment? Does capltal punishment
save lives?
At the timo I believed that the bizarre case of the
obsessive child polsoner who had fooled psychia-

ists and lawyers into releasing him to kill again *

was an isolated incident. I was wrong.

At approximately’ the same time another young
man, age fifteen, was following the same path as
Graham Young. The methods of killing were dif-
ferent, but the dates, the motives, and even the
mental ability of the two murderers are so similar
they stretch coincidence to the limit. .
hie re other boy's name-is Edmund Kemper. This is

story. :

Edmund was born on Dec. 18, 1948 in Burbank,
California. His father was a huge man, towering 6
ft. 8ins., while his mother, Clarnell, stood an even 6
feet. The Kempers had e children, Susan, the
oldest, Ed: d, and Allyn. 8 parents
argued incessantly, __

There is no evidence that either parent ever
physically abused their son. Edmund, as the only

y in the house, may have felt some rejection by
his mother, who probably identified him with her

‘. Led a ‘normal’ life

In September 1962, Edmund went to live with his
father In Los Angeles. He was ecstatic. For a few
months he led a happy, normal existence. At

Istmas Mr. Kemper visited his parents on their
farm at North Fork, Calif. Most fifteen-year-old
boys would look forward to a visit with grandpar-
ents down on the farm, Not Edmund. He suspected
his family of subterfuge. For the first time in his life
Edmund's instincts were correct. His father left
him on the farm and returned to Los Angeles.

Grandfather Edmund Kemper was 72 and
retired, He still did some farming on his eight acre
