Heavy full feeling, and pain and pressure in forehead and root of the nose better by discharge. Secretions in the nose dry up and form crusts; constant inclination to blow the nose, without result, on account of the excessive dryness.
Dry night cough; can’t sleep or lie down; must sit up; cough after measles (COFF.,).
This remedy, although never anywhere fully proven, has come to be a very useful one. In acute catarrh it is one of the best.
Its characteristic symptom here is HEAVY PAIN and PRESSURE IN THE FOREHEAD and ROOT OF THE NOSE. This is in the beginning of a cold; when the nose begins to discharge freely the pain ceases or becomes much less.
It is also of great value in the form of nasal catarrh, if when the discharges dry up there is this same pain in forehead and frontal sinuses. In these cases the nasal secretions incline to dry up and are hard to discharge, but the irritation is so great that there is a constant inclination to blow the nose, with little result. These secretions become so hard and dry as to form scabby concretions. This condition is next door to the plugs and clinkers of KALI-B., which often go on to ulceration of the septum. I have relieved many cases of chronic catarrh with STIC., some of yrs standing.
You will remember that KALI-B., also has a severe frontal headache at the root of the nose, especially from suppressed catarrh, so that all the other symptoms must be considered in choosing between them. The other remedies that resemble STICT., in the acute form of catarrh are ACON., AMM-C., сAMP., NUX-V., and SAMB., and in the chronic form AMM-C., and LYC.,.
There is never with STIC., the watery or fluent form of coryza, such as calls for PULS., SEP., and KALI-S., STIC., is also one of our cough remedies, and one of the best indications for its use, especially in acute cough, is the aforementioned nasal catarrh attending it. The STIC., cough is also worse at night when lying down and keeps the patient awake, though I do not think the wakefulness is entirely owing to the cough, but that a nervous condition which also comes under the curative range of STIC., contributes to it.
This remedy is one of the best for the obstinacy of cough attending or following measles, and here we remember that sleeplessness is a frequent concomitant. In this respect STIC., is like сOFF., which is wonderfully efficacious here. The cough of STIC., is at first dry, but later on may become loose; hence it is often found of use in the incessant, racking, wearing coughs of consumptives. In hay fever it is the remedy when the trouble centres in the head and frontal sinuses; the nose is completely PLUGGED up, though there is continual sneezing.
I have found STIC., promptly curative in inflammatory rheumatism of the knee joint. It is very sudden in its attacks, and unless promptly relieved by STIC., will go on to the exudative stage and become chronic in character. In one case the pain was so severe that the patient, though a strong, resolute man, became delirious with the pain. STIC., relieved and completely cured him, so that he was able to attend to his business (teamster) within a week. STIC., deserves a thorough proving. There is a nervous symptom that has been several times verified, viz.,- legs felt as if floating in the air, or SHE felt light and airy as if not resting on the bed. See ASAR., and VALERIAN,. Such sensations are often found in hysterical conditions and are very distressing.
