When the itching extends to the larynx and trachea, with great irritability and sensitive to cold:.When the discharge burns a red streak over the upper lip and about the wings of the nose, withsneezing and profuse, watery nasal discharge: .Copious acrid lachrymation, and copious bland flow from the nose with sneezing: .Copious, bland, watery discharge from the eyes and copious, acrid, watery discharge from thenose: .But these are not the constitutional remedies; they do not cure, but only palliate during thesevere attacks. These symptoms are the outcome of the psoric constitution, and this constitution mustbe treated by antipsorics. Sometimes the hay fever is so severe that it seems to be the onlymanifestation of psora in the patient, but if it is restrained or stopped up by bad treatment he is not wellduring the whole year. If let alone he has good heath during the rest of the year. Many a time the hayfever goes through the whole winter and only by constitutional upbuilding can it be mitigated. But withconstitutional treatment each yearly attack is lighter, and at the end of treatment he is able to live in hisown climate unaffected.He must not go to the mountains to mitigate it. If to any place, he should go where the affectionwould be worse, so that all its manifestations would be apparent. The hay fever will only be cured if the is curable, but if not, if his constitution is so broken down that is incurable, his hayfever will not be cured.The most striking place of attack is the mucous membrane of the nose, throat, trachea andlarynx. Violent acute inflammation of the mucous membrane of these parts.Great thirst for hot drinks. The appetite is singular; it is commonly seen in pregnant women.She says she is never hungry; never wants anything to eat, and often there is an aversion to food; butwhen, from a matter of reason, she concludes to eat, and she takes a mouthful, it tastes good, it recallsthe appetite, and she makes a good meal. At other times not only a loss of appetite, but a disgust andloathing of food. "Disgust for all food, for meat, for sour things, for coffee, for garlic"."Morbid hunger or loathing for food".A routine remedy in pin worms, seat worms, all sorts of worms; stomach and tape worms. Acareful prescriber never thinks of prescribing for worms. He takes all the symptoms of the patient, andthese guide him to the remedy. I remember one time in a lady's house seeing a dog drag his hinder partsover the carpet as if to scratch the anus. She said: "Doctor, can't you give the dog a remedy?" I put adose of Sabadilla in its mouth. Some time afterwards she asked me: "Doctor, what did you give the dogthat medicine for?" I inquired why she asked. "Why", she said, "in a few days it passed an awful lot ofworms". Sabadilla and are well adapted to-cases in which pin worms are present.Often a remedy restores the patient to order in general and then all his particular parts are set inorder.Female sexual organs. "Nymphomania from ascarides". "Cutting pains, as from knives, inovary". "Menses too late, with painful bearing down a few days previous; decreased, flow by fits andstarts, sometimes stronger; sometimes weaker; blood bright red".Hysterical patients; a patient with a strangely unbalanced mind, accompanied by variousnervous manifestations. "Twitchings, convulsive tremblings, or catalepsy from worms". It is true thatworms will not prosper in a perfectly healthy stomach, intestine or rectum. They can only thrive in, theunhealthy. Many a time I have had a patient bring me a tape-worm in a bottle after I had put them on anantipsoric, even when I did not suspect its existence. Turn the economy into order and the parasites go.The same applies to germs. They only exist as a result of disease.They have never been known to exist without the disease having first existed. If you ignore theworm, but select the remedy on the totality of the symptoms, the patient will be restored to health, and,so far as the worm is concerned, go without a symptom. The worm becomes smaller, shrivels andfinally departs.It is rarely the case for the worm to disappear inside of six weeks after the remedy. If, on theother hand you eject the worm by violent means, the patient may go for years with troublesomesymptoms, and you do not know why you fail to cure him.Prescribe for the patient first. No results of disease should be removed until properconstitutional treatment has been resorted to, and be sure that it is proper.SABINA [sabin] [Kent’s]The use of this remedy is generally confined to symptoms of the kidneys, bladder, uterus,rectum and anus; inflammatory and hemorrhagic symptoms principally of these parts. Sabinaestablishes a turmoil in the circulatory system, with violent pulsations all over the body. The patient is
