Description
Rheumatism begins in feet and travels upward ( KALM., opposite).
The swellings are pale, sometimes oedematous, and worse at night, in the heat of the bed; uncovering or cold water relieves.
Ecchymosis; black eye from blow or contusion; better than ARNICA.
Rheumatism and rheumatic gout; joints become the seat of nodosities and gout stones, which are painful.
Complaints of people who are cold all the time; lack of animal or vital heat; parts cold to touch, but not cold subjectively to patient.
Punctured wounds by sharp-pointed instruments, rat bites, stings of insects, especially mosquitoes.
LEDUM is a very valuable remedy for rheumatism. This complaint is confusedly a very difficult disease to cure by old school treatment. Seldom is a case of the inflammatory form completely cured by them. The great majority of their cases run from the acute in to the chronic form, and last for life. They are often drawn all out of shape( their patients), or left with incurable valvular heart trouble. This is not the case under homoeopathic treatment. On the contrary the patients treated homoeopathically are generally сURED, and very seldom left with any heart trouble, even if the disease commenced there, as it sometimes does. Oftener, of course, it begins in the back, extremities or joints generally, and then if treated allopathically with local applications it is DRIVEN to the heart, which cannot be reached with local applications, hence stays there until exudations occur and hardened deposits form upon the valves. Any homoeopathic physician guilty of treating a case this way, with such results, ought to lose his practice and his diploma.
I do not say this inadvisedly, for I have lived and practiced for thirty years past in a decidedly rheumatic district and know whereof I affirm. When we homoeopaths of the East condemn those of the West for the QUININE (in material doses) treatment of intermittents, we are reminded that we do not live in miasmatic districts so we are not authority and we can only reply that we know many physicians who do live there who cure their patients without the abuse of Quinine. вut in this verdict of mine on rheumatism I cannot be turned off that way. Rheumatism is one of those diseases that presents plenty of symptoms and modalities to guide to the choice from a long list of remedies of the ONE APPROPRIATE to the case in hand better There is such a great difference in the results of applying the remedy according to symptomatic indications, and those arising from simply pathological prescribing, that one does not need long to experiment to be convinced. Indeed the pathological condition in this complaint does not figure largely in the account, for proposes of prescribing. вut sensations and modalities do.
The LEDUM rheumatism begins in the feet and travels upward. This is the opposite of KALM., which goes the other way. LEDUM may be indicated in both acute and chronic forms of this complaint. In the acute form the joints are swollen and hot, but not red. The swellings are pale and the pains are WORSE AT NIGHT and from the HEAT OF THE вED, wants them uncovered. This is like MERC., but with MERC., the profuse SWEAT WITHOUT RELIEF, and especially the characteristic mouth and tongue symptoms will decide. I have seen wonderful benefit from LEDUM in such cases.
In the chronic form of the disease this remedy is equally efficacious. Here also we have the joints swollen and painful, especially in the heat of the bed, and painful, hard nodes and concretions form in the joints of feet first, then hands. The periosteum of the phalanges is painful on pressure. The ankles are swollen and the soles are painful and sensitive; can hardly step on them. This painful and sensitive soles of feet is also found under ANT-C., lYC., and SIL., and I have relieved it, other symptoms agreeing, with each and every one of these remedies. In these cases of rheumatic troubles the LEDUM patient is unnaturally cold. Lacks vital or animal heat, in this, again, resembling SIL., but although the SIL., patient has chronic rheumatism of the feet, ankles and soles similar to LEDUM, worse also at night, the warmth of the вED does NOT worse, but on the contrary he wants to be covered warmly. Under LEDUM the relief from cold is so prominent that sometimes the only better is from putting the feet into cold water. It is well to think of LEDUM in all cases of rheumatism of the feet and STUDY IT UP.
We must not leave this remedy without calling attention to its virtues as a remedy for injuries. We are apt to think of ARN., first, for bruises and the results therefrom, and, on account of its well deserved reputation, to forget that there are sometimes other remedies equally valuable. LEDUM sometimes comes in to finish up a work that ARN., began well, but could not complete, even when ARN., wAS best at first, for it often removes the ecchymosis and discoloration more rapidly and perfectly. For black and blue spots from blows or bruises there is no better remedy than LEDUM.
Then again, we have SULPH-AC., which is very useful in ecchymosis from the same cause, especially if occurring in cachectic or weakened constitutions, with tendency to purpura, or breaking down of the blood. This pathological condition would be attended with the characteristic symptoms of the drug. We often have ecchymosis into the conjunctiva or sclerotica, for which NUX-V., is specific, but for black eye from a blow of the fist no remedy equals LEDUM in the 2c potency, LEDUM, is a good remedy for punctured wounds, such as the sticking of a nail into the foot, or an arm into the hand, etc; also, for stings of insects, especially mosquitoes, but this also needs modification. It makes some difference what kind of tissue is wounded by this kind of wound. If a nerve, for instance, HYP., would be preferable; if the periosteum, RUTA; if the bone, сALC-P., or SYM., to promote re-union or repair. We must not forget to mention in connection with what has been said of the eyeball itself from the blow, SYM., may have to be used. For all these affections I believe the 200th potency, better than the lower preparations.
