A member asked:
Does the efficacy of a particular electroconvulsive therapy session get impacted if the body is healing from a cut or a bruise at the same time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Unless the cut or bruise interferes with electrode placement. Otherwise there is no effect. But there are some theories that it may facilitate healing of a cut or bruise -- but I'd be skeptical.
