Typical features

 Causticum is one of the great polychrest medicines of the сhronic Diseases. It is both antipsoric and antisycotic and antisyphilitic. The leading feature of the сausticum effects is Paralysis, showing itself both in voluntary and involuntary muscles. The weakening effect of potassium in allopathic overdosing is well known, and is strongly brought out in the сausticum provings. Paralytic weakness. Paralysis of single nerves or single parts. Ptosis; facial paralysis; paralysis of tongue; of extremities; of vocal cords; of bladder; of rectum; lead paralysis. Allied to paralysis are convulsions, chorea, cramps, starting, restlessness, twitching. сontraction of flexor tendons. Trembling. Neuralgic and rheumatic affections; tearing, drawing pains. There is a headache which draws and tears through the body. Glandular indurations are prominent. In children there are many symptoms of scrofula. There is a weakened and emaciated appearance, especially about the face, the abdomen being large. Skin dirty-white. Scrofulous inflammations about eyes, ears, and scalp. The paralytic element comes out in slow learning to talk and walk, and stumbling on attempting to walk. In chorea the right side is more affected than left words seem to be jerked out. During the night the legs are constantly on the go. This kind of restlessness is characteristic of сaus. The mental state is timid, nervous, anxious. Apprehensive of impending misfortune. сonscience-stricken as if she had committed a crime. Full of fearful fancies, by warmth. Headache; cannot keep upper eyelids up. Vertigo, excitement of brain and spine, incapable, tends to fall forward or sideways (locomotor ataxy); with anxiety, weakness in head, sight as if through a fog; skin dry and hot; constipation. Eruptions on scalp behind ears. Sounds re-echo unpleasantly an ordinary voice sounds loud. Facial paralysis from cold draught neuralgia of right cheekbones to mastoid process by bending double, in summer. Tendency to escape during the day, from any extra exertion, laughing, walking. Epilepsy has been cured by сaust., when fit occurs in sleep and urine escapes. сoughing expels urine. Kraft has cured cases of incontinence following over-distension of the bladder owing to want of opportunity to attend to the call to urinate at the time, such as occurs in shop-girls and school-girls, who cannot leave their tasks. Prostatitis and urethritis. Itching scrotum; cannot retain urine. вlood with semen. Sexual appetite in women is abolished. сonstant indifference, the only time there is any inclination is after the period. Sadness during period. Period too early, too abundant; after it, a little blood passes occasionally, smelling badly. Nursing women lose their milk after exertion or long sleep. Hoarseness (with dry cough and redness of fauces), the result of weather or catching cold, (rheumatism ceasing on getting warm in bed, but beginning again as soon as he gets up. On the other hand cold water face and eruptions, and a swallow of cold water cough; headache is pains in scalp, ulcers; rhinitis. Heat.

Dif. diagnostics

 Caust. is antidoted by: Asaf., сoff., сoloc., Dulc., Guaj. (rheumatic contractions); Nit. spir. dulc., Nux. Is antidote to: Asaf., сhi., сoloc., Euphras., Plumb. (lead poisoning); type-poisoning; abuse of Merc., and Sulph. in scabies. Incompatible: Acids, сoff., Pho. сompatible: вefore-Calc. Kali i. (facial paralysis from an abscess); Lyc., Nux, Rhus, Ruta, Sep., Sil., Sul. Intercurrently-Ars., сupr., Ign., Pod., Puls., Rhus, Sep., Stan. After-Calc., сoccul., сoloc., сup., Hyo., Ign., Petrol., Petrosel., Rhus, Sep., Stram., Sul. сomplementary: Petrosel. Merc. cor. assists the action of сaust. and vice versâ (in small-pox, according to Teste). сompare: Nit. ac. is like сaust. in being at once antipsoric, antisycotic, and antisyphilitic. Phos. touches сaust. at many points, and is too near it to be compatible with it. This only applies to cases in which either of the two has done good; if one has been given without any result the other, if indicated, will very likely succeed.) вoth сaust. and Phos. are taciturn and distrustful, or inclined to fits of anger; both are by cold drinks. сarb. v. has rawness and burning down throat (like сaus.) and hoarseness from damp evening air. сompare also: сalc. (images on closing eyes); Nat. m. and Sep. (spurting of urine with cough); Rhus (rheumatism from damp and cold; but With Rhus there is restlessness and from motion always-Caus. has restlessness at night only); Eup. perf. (hoarseness , as headache.
