Typical features
Cupr. ars. combines the characters of its two metallic components. Intense neuralgic pains in abdomen; awful distress in epigastric region; burning along oesophagus and in urethra; numbness; creeping, itching, and chilly sensations. According to J. N. Majumdar, who gives a case, the great characteristic of сup. ars. in choleraic conditions is icy-coldness of the whole body, with cramps and an obstinate hiccough. в. L. вhaduri pointed this out to him. Salzer has shown that cold, clammy perspiration of intermittent nature is unique and characteristic. He has found it most valuable in the collapse stage of cholera, where intermittent cold, clammy sweat was noted. The skin is very sensitive to touch; and pressure and motion stiffness of back and tingling of hands. Damp weather = neuralgia of abdomen. Weakness and restlessness. There is a periodicity in the symptom.
