🧠General & Mental Health
▲GENERAL
Muriatic Acid, i.e.
Hydrochloric Acid, is a common acid deeply linked
with our digestive system.
Most homoeopathic doctors draw a very
scary picture of Muriatic Acid, i e.
a patient whose muscles have
become completely useless and his h ead constantly rolls off the side
of the bed, with death only moments away.
Such a patient is typical
of Muriatic Acid.
In fact, Hydrochl oric Acid is routinely secreted in
our stomach on a daily basis.
The amount secreted varies.
When the
acidity increases in the stomach, it is possible that the quantity of
Muriatic Acid has increased.
However, the situation may be exactly
the opposite in the sense that the le vel of Hydrochloric Acid in the
stomach has decreased (hypochlorhydr ia).
This als o, can produce the
symptoms of hyperacidity, because when the gastric lining make less
hydrochloric acid, then due to a lack of the antiseptic effect of
Hydrochloric Acid, the food inside the stomach starts to decompose,
leading to the formation of othe r acids and producing gases in the
stomach.
The normal acidity of the stomach does not weaken a
person.
However, when the acidity increases above or decreases
below the normal level, it produces the ailments that we commonly
call “acidity”.
Anyhow, one has to decide after carefully observing
the symptoms.
As soon as the digestive system is noted to be upset,
the patient should be given Muriatic Acid in homoeopathic potencyStrength level of a remedyThe dilution and succussion scale of a remedy (e.g., 6C, 30C, 200C, 1M), indicating its energetic concentration. so
as to normalize the acidity in the stomach.
In Muriatic Acid patients, the mind remains absolutely clear and alert,
even if the nerves and muscles have been afflicted.
However, the
symptoms of a patient ameanable to Acid Phos treatment are exactly
opposite to those of Muriatic Acid patients.
In Muriatic Acid, the body
is affected first and the mind last, whereas in Acid Phos patients, the
state of mind deteriorates first and physical ailments appear later on The patient’s ability to think and u nderstand is badly affected.
The
intellectual capacity slowly decreases and memory deteriorates.
After
some time, these symptoms graduall y lead to the weakening of the
muscles.
The Acid Phos patient takes a while to develop the
symptoms of the muscular weakness.
If the mental symptoms are
treated with this remedy, then the muscles may not be affected at all.
It is relatively easy to take care of the Muriatic Acid patient.
As long
as the mind remains alert and the mental faculties have not been
affected, the patient will be cured by just one or two doses even if he
is at the point of death.
The profound weakness due to the “acidity”
is very dangerous but at the same time can be very easily reversed,
without leaving any long-lasting bad effects.
The same is the situation
with Sulphuric Acid.
So, it is most essential to understand and
compare the nature of the various acids.
In Muriatic Acid, there is severe headache that may also blur the
vision.
On straining the eyes, the headache becomes worse.
Furthermore, pimples appear on the face.
The lips become dry and
crack.
The tongue becomes pale, dry and swollen.
Quite often, ulcers
develop in the mouth and over the tongue .
Gums become swollen
and may also bleed while teeth become loose.
Some Muriatic Acid patients do not even like the sight of meat,
however, most of them enjoy eating it.
Sometimes, the patients feel
severe hunger and thirst.
Some patie nts are so sensitive to touch that
they do not even like to cover themselves with a sheet.
The ailments
of Muriatic Acid get worse durin g humid weather.
The disease
aggravates shortly before midnight .
The patient finds comfort on
lying on the left side.
The headache starts from the nape of the neck and vision becomes
blurred.
Sometimes, the field of vision becomes half (hemianopia).
Either the upper half or the lower ha lf of a thing becomes invisible.
Similarly, either half of the left side or half of the right side becomes
obscure.
In the latter condition, Muriatic Acid is very effective.
For
quivering vision in one eye , Rhus Tox is very useful as it also
protects against many dangerous conditions.
One symptom of Muriatic Acid is th at when the child passes stools, a
portion of the intestine prolapses out (rectal prolapse).
In the conditions associated with formation of blisters and sores in
the mouth, and cuts developing on the tongue, there is a need for
vigorous treatment not only to cure the mouth problems but also to
cure the fever and its bad effects.
Sometimes, in Muriatic Acid, the
tongue becomes paralyzed .
There is no problem of the voice
mechanism, but only the tongue is non- functional.
For such paralysisLoss of voluntary muscle functionThe loss of the ability to move (and sometimes to feel anything) in part or most of the body.,
Muriatic Acid is very valuable.
The tongue is usually dry.
In Muriatic Acid, despite the skin being sensitive, the paralytic effects
are more manifest internally.
All thes e kinds of contradi ctions help in
identifying the remedy.
Though, the body appears lifeless, yet the
slightest touch on the skin produces shudders .
Such
hypersensitivity is also found in Ag aricus, Staphysagria and Oxalic
Acid.
Similarly, Picric Acid is also a very sensitive remedy.
In all
these remedies, strong pressure is bearable, although a light touch is
unbearable and the patient pushes the hand away with a jerk.
In Muriatic Acid, the legs and ar ms become cold and feel heavy.
Most of the excretions (i.e ur ine, stools) are no longer under
voluntary control.
The pulse is rapid but weak.
