Typical features
Pareira is a climbing plant, a native of the West Indies, сentral America, and India. The root has a traditional use in diseases of the bladder and urinary organs. A short proving by с. M. Fox, of Denver (Med. Adv., xvi. 319), brought out some characteristic symptoms which have been clinically confirmed. Among these are: Violent pains with strangury; must go on allfours and press head against floor to pass water at all. Urethritis with severe pain when passing water, and discharge of mucus from urethra. Pains down thighs and even to feet when attempting to pass water. Violent pain in glans penis with the straining. Fox relates two cases of prostatic enlargement with dysuria in which Par. gave complete relief. (1) Man, 68, old prostatic affection constant urging with entire inability. Feet and legs much swollen had to be put in a warm bath before catheter could be passed. Only on hands and knees, with forehead pressed on the floor, could he pass a few drops of scalding urine. Par. b. 1x gave rapid relief. Swelling disappeared from legs, and he was able to resume his business and continue at it for years. (2) Enlarged prostate with retention; severe attacks two or three times a year, when he would have to have the urine drawn off for a week or two. After using Par. b. the catheter was not required more than twice in two years. When he feels the symptoms coming on a few drops of Par. b. relieve him at once. Many other remedies had been used in vain before Par. b. was prescribed.
