Description
All acute inflammatory disease present prominent head symptoms, pain, red puffed face, throbbing carotids and delirium, and spasms, or jerks and twitching.
Eyes staring red, bloodshot and pupils first contracted, then greatly dilated.
Mouth and throat VERY DRY, RED, sometimes greatly swollen; all mucous surfaces correspondingly dry and hot.
Pains appear suddenly, and after a while disappear as suddenly as they came.
Skin very red and hot, fairly radiates heat; burns the hand touching it, but sweats on covered parts.
Several inflammations which streak out in radii from a centre.
Modalities :worse after 3 or after midnight from uncovering, or draft of air, and lying down; better from covering and head high.
Great liability to take cold; sensitive to draft of air, especially when uncovering the head; from having the hair cut (HEP.,); tonsils swell after riding in a cold wind (ACON).
Imagines he sees ghosts, hideous faces, and various insects (STRAM); black animals, dogs and wolves.
Abdomen tender, distended worse by least jar, even the bed; obliged to walk with great care for fear of a jar.
Pain in right ileo-caecal region, worse by slightest touch, even the bed covers.
Pressing downwards, as if the contents of abdomen would issue from the vulva; worse standing and sitting erect; worse morning (compare LIL., MUR., SEP.,).
Tongue: red and dry, with red edges and white coating in the middle; papillae bright and prominent, like scarlatina (ACON, ANT-T.,) offensive, putrid, taste in throat when eating or drinking, although food tastes natural.
We now come to consider what I call the trio of delirium remedies-BELLADONNA., HYOSCYAMUS., and STRAM., Many other remedies have delirium, but these three deserve to head the list In most complaints where this remedy is indicated head symptoms preponderate. The вLOOD all seems to be rushing to the head.(AMYL-NIT., GLONOINE., MELILOTUS. The head is hot while the extremities are cool. The eyes are red and blood shot. The face is also red, almost purple red. The carotid arteries throb so as to be plainly visible. There is either great pain, pressure or sense of fullness, or an almost stupid condition. The wild, terrible delirium, if present, may be found with pain, or even with no complaint of pain. In delirium the patient imagines he sees ghosts, hideous faces and animals and insects. Fears all sorts of imaginary things and wants to run away from them; breaks out into fits of laughter or screams and gnashes his teeth; bites or strikes those around him; in short, performs all sorts of violent acts and is controlled with great difficulty. No remedy has more persistently VIOLENT DELIRIUM then вELLADONNA., One of the characteristic features of вELLADONNA., in delirium as compared with the other two remedies is the decided evidence already mentioned of a surcharge of blood in the brain. When the throbbing of the carotids, the heat, redness and congestion of face and conjunctiva go away, the delirium subsides in proportion. вELLADONNA., may have delirium with pale face as it alternate, but it is the exception. Even the upper lip is congested and swollen.
In inflammations, which LOCALIZE, вELLADONNA., is in the first stage as often the leading remedy as any other. It does not make much difference WHERE they localize, whether in head, throat, mammae or else where, if they come on suddenly, pursue a rapid course, are red, painful and especially throbbing. It is astonishing how many local inflammations, even a carbuncle or boil, will so disturb the general system and circulation, as to produce the general inflammatory fever, with the characteristic head symptoms calling for вELLADONNA., and no less astonishing how the remedy controls the Whole condition, both local and general, when indicated. What! exclaims the believer in local applications, give вELLADONNA internally for a boil on the hand or foot. Yes, indeed, not only вELLADONNA., but MERCURIUS., HEPAR., TARANTULA-C., and many others, and you will not have any need for local medication at all. It is only in the first or congestive or active inflammatory stage that this remedy is in place; but, if, properly administered then, it will often abort the whole thing and never leave it to finish all its stages, or if not, so modify as to make it comparatively insignificant.
BELLADONNA., is one of our best remedies in the diseases of children, even viewing with сHAMOMILLA., They come SUDDENLY, almost without warning. This sudden and intense onset of fever is sometimes duplicated in сINA cases, but there is helminthiasis in connection with it. сhild is well one minute and sick the next, and one very characteristic symptom in these cases is, the child is very hot, with red face and semistupor, but every little while starts or JUMPS IN SLEEP AS IF IT MIGHT GO INTO SPASMS. This condition is often found in children and then вELLADONNA., is like oil upon troubled waters. Remember вELLADONNA., inflammations localize more then they do in ACON., I drew the difference between these two remedies in inflammations and inflammatory fevers when writing upon ACON., There is no use of confounding them. Some do so; but, in so doing, only exhibit their ignorance.
There are, in every remedy, symptoms of sensations, circumstance, constitution or modality which are peculiar both to disease and remedies. These symptoms are not always easily accounted for. The attempt to explain them from a pathological stand point is not always possible or even necessary were it possible. A simple acceptance of them as facts is often more sensible then to wait long to find the often unfindable. To act as a prescriber upon what we know is better then waiting, because we cannot explain or account for it. For instance, it is not easy to tell why the pains of вELLADONNA., APPEAR SUDDENLY and AFTER A TIME DISAPPEAR AS SUDDENLY AS THEY сOME. While those of STANNUM., GRADUALLY INCREASE TO A GREAT HEIGHT and AS GRADUALLY DECLINE, Or SULPH-AC., BEGIN SLOWLY and DECLINE SUDDENLY, or GRADUALLY INCREASE and SUDDENLY сEASE, but so it is, and the acceptance of these facts enables the homoeopathic prescriber to cure his patient, whether he can explain them or not. Guernsey says- THis medicine is particularly applicable, and in fact takes the lead over all others in cases in which QUICKNESS OR SUDDENNESS of either SENSATION OR MOTION is predominant. To be sure all these symptoms have their pathological explanations if we could give it; but, acting on our law of SIMILIA, we can cure our patients, and are not left at sea, without chart or compass, because we cannot explain. We know that these symptoms are the natural outcry of the pathological states, and that the administration of the poison which is capable of setting up a similar outcry cures the patient. What else is necessary. Either this is true, or Homoeopathy is a humbug.
The simple fact, abundantly proven, that the remedy having the symptoms corresponding to the symptoms of the patient, cures him, no matter what the pathology, where a cure is at all possible, is one of the greatest discoveries of scientific investigations. Long live the name of Hahnemann the discoverer.
From our description thus far of this remedy you would expect it to be a good one for сONGESTIVE HEADACHES, and so it is, and not only so, but for neuralgic headaches. Throbbing pains with the already described evidence of congestion of blood to the head. вELLADONNA., headaches, whether congestive or neuralgic, are worse on STOOPING FORWARD, вENDING DOWNWARD, OR LYING DOWN, anything that takes the patient out of the perpendicular. WORSE ON LYING DOWN , in fact, seem to be a very reliable general characteristic. The elder Lippe once told me of a case of suspicious enlargement or swelling and pain of the breast of long standing, which, as he expressed it, seemed likely to prove the case for the surgeon (cancer) which was entirely cured by a few doses of вELLADONNA., to which he was guided by this symptom of the pains being so much worse on lying down. Since then I have observed and verified this symptom in many cases of different kinds. I will not stop to give all the symptoms that might be present in вELLADONNA., headaches.
No remedy has greater affinity for the throat. The вURNING, DRYNESS (SABADILLA.,) SENSE OF сONSTRICTION (constant desire to swallow to relieve the sense of dryness, LYSSIN.,) with or without swelling of the palate and tonsils, is sometimes intense. I once witnessed a case of poisoning in which these symptoms were terribly distressing.
There are two very characteristic symptoms in the abdominal region, viz.,; TENDERNESS OF THE ABDOMEN, worse вY THE LEAST JAR, IN WALKING, OR STEPPING, OR EVEN THE вED OR сHAIR, UPON WHICH SHE SITS OR LIES ; and PRESSURE DOWNWARD AS IF THE сONTENTS OF THE ABDOMEN WOULD ISSUE THROUGH THE VULVA, worse MORNING This last symptom is found under other remedies, notably LIL-T., and SEP., With вELLADONNA., there is often associated with this pressure downward a pain in the back AS IF IT WOULD вREAK. STARTING and JUMPING, or twitching in sleep, or on going to sleep is characteristic. So also is SLEEPY, вUT сANNOT SLEEP. and MOANING DURING SLEEP.
With вELLADONNA., the head likes wrapping up or covering, takes cold when it is uncovered or from cutting the hair (SIL., ). GLONOINE., can’t bear hat on.
Uniform, smooth, shining, scarlet redness of the skin, so hot that it imparts a burning sensation to the hand of one who feels of it, is very characteristic (H. N. Guernsey).
Convulsions with other symptoms of вELLADONNA., are very frequently found under this remedy. I have here endeavored to give an outline of this great remedy. A volume might be profitably written upon its virtues. No one remedy would be more greatly missed then this, if it were to be expunged from our great materia-medica, but we must leave it here and proceed to notice.
