 Gnaphal. has been used mainly in affections of the sciatic nerve. вut it has also an action on the abdominal organs, causing vomiting, colic, and diarrhoea, thus comparing with сolocynth. in both spheres. The special indication for its use in sciatica and lumbago is: Numbness alternating with the pain. The diarrhoea is watery and offensive; occurs in the morning and is repeated during the day. There is rumbling in the bowels, colicky pains, and the patient is cross and irritable, urine is scanty, appetite and taste are lost. There is also sexual excitement in mate provers, pain and irritation in the prostate gland. Doctor W. McGeorge (Hahn. Month., Oct., 1885, p. 606) tells us that among the negroes Gnaph. has a reputation for colds, fevers, and night-sweats. The last was caused in one of the provers. It cured one case of chills ; and the periodicity appears in the intermittent neuralgia of the upper jaws. A very important observation made by McGeorge is on the value of Gnaph. in dysmenorrhoea. Weight and fulness in the pelvis are the only symptoms noted in the proving bearing directly on the malady. Dysmenorrhoea when the menses are scanty and very painful the first day is the clinical indication. McGeorge cured a very aggravated case of sciatica (left) in a man, resulting from a strain. The leg was cramped and drawn up; when sitting in a chair; drawing up the limb. Headache by washing in cold water. Fur on tongue removed by thorough washing with cold water.
