1. A method for treating internal organ oedema, comprising
positioning a first electrode and a second electrode on or inside a subject such that that an electric current flow between the first and second electrodes traverses through the internal organ oedema of the subject; and
delivering a controlled electric current between the electrodes to the internal organ oedema, wherein the electrodes are connected to a control unit adapted to deliver the electric current to a preset value to induce electro-osmosis, wherein the preset value is maintained by controlling a voltage between the first electrode and the second electrode for any given distance between the electrodes,
wherein the first electrode is a patch electrode and the second electrode is a coil electrode.
