Typical features

It has been used in eye affections, especially when accompanied by severe neuralgic intermitting pains in and around eyes, with chills; lachrymation, photophobia, ulceration of cornea of malarial origin. Intermittent fever following broncho-pneumonia; shaking chill 5 p.m accompanied by fatiguing cough, rattling in bronchi without expectoration.

Prostration and weakness are marked in all provers and accompany the headaches and other symptoms. There is a feeling of enlargement-in eyeballs, in tongue, head symptoms are after a walk.
