http://homeojunction.blogspot.com/

 

 

Nux Vomica –

Nux Vomica is indicated in constipation with frequent, ineffectual desire for

stool. Small quantities of faeces are passed every time. Sensation as if not

finished. Constipation is due to sedentary habits, excessive mental exertion,

loss of sleep, sexual excesses, alcoholic stimulants, coffee, tobacco and over

eating.

 

Opium-

The constipation of Opium is due to absolute inaction of the intestines, a

regular paralysis of the intestine, a regular paralysis of the peristaltic

movement. There is an absence of desire, absolutely no urging to stool whatever,

and so the faeces become impacted in the bowel; and when passed at all come in

little, hard, dry, black balls. It is indicated especially in constipation of

old people.

 

Alumina-

The constipation of Alumina is due to dryness of the intestinal tract; there

is diminished peristaltic movement and complete inertia of the rectum, so that

we have the symptom, ‘soft stool expelled with difficultyâ€. There is little

or no urging to stool. The stool may be hard and knotty like sheep dung, or

may be soft. There is much straining with the remedy and the stool is passed in

very small quantities.

 

3 leading medicines are described in this blog, the other medicines used for

constipation are bryonia, sulphur, plumbum, nat mur, lycopodium, graphites,

platina, silicea, causticum, veratrum alb, podophyllum, phosphorus, etc.

Colocynth-

This remedy is specific in colic in gouty and rheumatic subjects, when the

well known griping pains forcing the patient to bend double or press something

hard into the abdomen are present. It is a colic caused due to gas formation,

undigested food or cold, or perhaps some violent emotion such as a fit of

anger. Diarrhea may be present along with colic and the emission of flatus or

stool

will relieve the colic. It is also a most useful remedy in menstrual or

vesical colic.

 

Dioscorea-

Continuous and constant pain about umbilical region associated with paroxysms

of great intensity add flatulent spasms; relieved by stretching the body out;

Bilious, rheumatic and neuralgic colic’s. Pains radiate to chest and back; it

is a most valuable remedy in certain forms of dyspepsia which marked with

much colicky pain. Dioscorea is most useful in painful enteralgias which are

relieved by bending backwards.

 

Nux vomica-

Haemorrhoidal colic or spasmodic colic from accumulation of flatus; Deep

seated hypogastric pain, abdomen hard and drawn in, not distended. Colic from

dietetic errors or in brandy and coffee drinkers; pains worse on motion, pain

pinching and contractive, griping as if intestines were rubbed between stones.

The problem with constipation nowadays has to do with taking too much

prescription drugs. Will homeopathic drugs work in those cases? I hope

not, since the best remedy for drug induced constipation is to wean

oneself off the drug, right?

In truth, I could not say with certainly Josephine, as I am not a

homeopathic -- but logic seems to suggest that getting off the drug would be a

wise decision.
