▲ MODALITIES ETC

Authoritative Homeopathic Materia Medica profile detailing clinical symptom indications, modalities, and constitutional therapeutic actions.

  • General Action: A profoundly active and powerful remedy, deeply related to the functioning of inner linings (mucous membranes), nerve fibers, glands, and the brain. It also affects bones and bone marrow.
  • Bleeding: One of the best remedies for the control of bright red (arterial) bleeding; has no effect on dark colored (venous) bleeding. Therefore, it should be considered as a treatment of arterial bleeding only.
  • Discharges: Usually acidic; leucorrheal discharge is excoriating. Diarrheal stools are acidic to the extent that they cause blisters on the skin.
  • Wounds: Tend to bleed heavily; can apparently heal up only to reappear.
  • Warts: Papillomata tend to bleed; sometimes they fungate and look horrible (as in Nitric Acid).
  • Muscular Weakness: Muscles become flabby and supporting tissues and membranes become weak. As after delivery, muscles of the uterus become flabby and the uterus tends to prolapse. Hernia and other similar conditions can develop. Phosphorus plays an important role in restoring organs to their original position by strengthening the musculature.
  • Movement: Initial movement causes discomfort, but later the patient feels better (similar to Rhus Tox and Bryonia).

  • Constitutional Type: Often described as skinny and tall, with conical fingers and an artistic mind. Patient is of extremely fair complexion, has blond hair and light colored eyes. However, identification should be based on the patient’s constitution and sensitive nature, rather than solely physical appearance.
  • Sensitivity: Tender and sensitive. Gentle nature makes him extraordinarily sensitive, which may sometimes cause certain diseases. Nerves become extraordinarily sensitive.
  • Weakness: A common symptom.
  • Temperature: Hands and feet become cold in diseases of bones, chest, and kidneys (also seen in Silicea). Feels cold in the evening.
  • Amelioration: Many ailments ameliorate with heat, while the stomach and the head feel better in the cold.
  • Weather Sensitivity: Thunderous clouds make symptoms worse. Patients can perceive weather changes before scientific instruments; their suffering begins before the actual change takes place.
  • Chronic vs. Acute: Acts slowly against chronic diseases, while in acute diseases it acts fast.
  • Cancers: Effective against cancers of the liver, bone, bone marrow, lymphatic glands, throat, and bladder. Proven effective in bone and brain cancer.
  • Degeneration: Excellent treatment of fatty degeneration of the liver and other parts of the body, including heart muscles. Failures of the liver and kidney.
  • Liver Function: Normalizes the function of the liver concerning the production of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and thus lowers the level of cholesterol in the blood.
  • Intoxication: Protects from the ill effects of drinking.

  • Mental State: Extremely tender and sensitive. May become aloof but is not arrogant like Platinum; remains aloof simply by being honest and straightforward. Very kind and polite.
  • Fears & Anxiety: Sometimes, when alone, fear of death overcomes him, or he may become mentally agitated. Very restless and anxious. Heightened anxiety can lead to inability to have children.
  • Sensations: Feels as if something is creeping inside his body. Numbness of the hands and fingers with a feeling of ants crawling.
  • Nerve Sensitivity: Closely related to the nerve fibers. Uneasiness and restlessness due to increased nerve sensitivity. Symptoms become worse in the presence of strangers. Mind needs rest and cannot handle extra burden, leading to extraordinarily sensitive nerves. Increased sensitivity of nerves can manifest as premature ejaculation.
  • Sleep: Restless during sleep. Sleep is shallow. Frequently wakes up without any particular reason, due to mental anguish.

  • Headache: Head feels better in the cold. Application of heat will make headache worse because pressure inside the head is already high. Aggravates by lying down; patient keeps his head elevated. Headache is without cramps (vs. Belladonna). Cooling the head helps in hypertension with danger of cerebral hemorrhage.
  • Vision: Affects the visual mechanism of the eye. Patient sees many colors, a green halo around the light, and also notices red and black spots. Vision becomes foggy. Green halo around candlelight is also found in Opium. Useful in many eye diseases.
  • Sudden Blindness: When someone becomes suddenly blinded due to unexpected shocking news.
  • Retina & Optic Nerve: Useful if the retina becomes damaged or the optic nerve transmitting the message becomes weak, leading to color-blindness. Gradually progressive blindness leading ultimately to complete blindness (also a symptom of Causticum).
  • Hearing: Hearing also becomes affected. Patient hears sounds echoing.
  • Face & Jaw: Face becomes pale and bluish rings develop around the eyes. Jawbone becomes swollen and painful.
  • Facial Neuralgia: An excellent remedy for facial neuralgia. Used in combination with Spigelia for left-sided facial neuralgia. Can be included in a prescription with Silicea and Mag Phos for right-sided neuralgia.

  • Thirst & Vomiting: Feels very thirsty, comforted by drinking cold water. However, when the water becomes warm in the stomach, it induces vomiting (similar to Aethusa). Hot things cause vomiting. In a child, ingested milk warms up in the stomach after a little while and causes vomiting.
  • Stomach Complaints: Improve with cold things. Problems become worse on empty stomach. Stomachache subsides on taking cold things. Stomach becomes inflamed and painful, more so on walking and putting pressure over it with the hands. Patient feels relieved by lying on the right side.
  • Nausea: Severe uncontrollable nausea developing after surgery.
  • Appetite: Feels hungry immediately after eating food.
  • Taste: Becomes sour. There is a tendency to vomit.
  • Abdomen: Yellow spots develop on the abdomen, chest, and parts of the neck, apparently due to a pigmentation disorder, in fact due to weakness of the suprarenal glands.
  • Kidney: Extraordinarily effective against kidney diseases.
  • Mouth: Widely effective against diseases of the mouth. When the gums become diseased and there is light red offensive bleeding from them. Sores develop inside the mouth, which tend to bleed. Teeth also hurt.
  • Urinary: Exceptionally effective in the treatment of bladder and prostate cancers.

  • Cough: Irritation of the throat causes coughing. The cough starts either on laughing or on talking loudly, causing inflammation of the throat. Sometimes the cough starts due to itching of the throat. The phlegm dries up and sticks in the throat causing discomfort and more itching (for this problem, Rhus Tox and Hepar Sulph can be useful).
  • Throat Ulceration: Patient loses his voice due to ulceration in the throat, which may be a symptom of throat cancer.
  • Nasal Symptoms: Very effective in resolving nasal polyps, relieving blockage of the nose. Polyps and adenoid glands block the nose, forcing the child to breathe through the mouth. The sense of smell becomes affected. The nose may bleed.

  • Bryonia: Crusts form on the lips, which fissure at their edges due to severe dryness (Phosphorus also exhibits these symptoms). Increase in discomfort on movement is very prominent.
  • Platinum: Patient becomes aloof and thinks himself superior to others (The Phosphorus patient may remain aloof simply being honest and straightforward; however, the patient is not arrogant like Platinum).
  • Belladonna: Headache of Belladonna patient feels comfort on lying down (vs. Phosphorus headache aggravates by lying down). In Belladonna, headache is associated with cramps (vs. Phosphorus headache without cramps).
  • Aethusa: In a child, the ingested milk warms up in the stomach after a little while and causes vomiting (similar symptom).
  • Opium: A green halo around the candlelight (besides Phosphorus) is found in Opium also. Opium can also afflict and paralyze the optic nerve.
  • Causticum: Gradually progressive blindness leading ultimately to complete blindness (also a symptom). Many other symptoms of Causticum and Phosphorus also resemble each other.
  • Carbo Veg: Like Phosphorus, the patient loses his voice in the evening, but the condition improves in the morning (vs. Causticum where throat is hoarse in the morning and becomes better in the evening).

It is a leading remedy for bright red arterial bleeding and is indicated in conditions like tuberculosis, asthma, and various cancers (brain, bone, liver, bladder, throat).

  • General Action: A profoundly active and powerful remedy, deeply related to the functioning of inner linings (mucous membranes), nerve fibers, glands, and the brain. It also affects bones and bone marrow.
