There is no remedy that so surely, and so violently, irritates and inflames the urinary organs, and no remedy so promptly cures such irritation when it puts on the\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>type or form, which it often does.<\/p>\n<p>H. N. Guernsey wrote: &#8220;It is a singular fact, though known to most practitioners, that if there be frequent micturition attended with burning, cutting pain, or if not so frequent and the cutting, burning pain attends the flow,\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>is almost always the remedy for whatever other suffering there may be, even in inflammation of the brain or lungs.&#8221; He might have added in the throat, and mucous membranes all through the intestinal tract, even to the rectum and anus, and in the pleura or on the skin.<\/p>\n<p>He also wrote: &#8220;<strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>should always be remembered and studied in treating affections of the air passages when the mucus is tenacious.&#8221; (<strong>HYRASTIS, KALI BICHROM., COCCUS CACTI<\/strong>, etc.) I had the pleasure of verifying the truth of this in the case of a lady who had suffered a long time with bronchitis. The mucus was so profuse, and tenacious, and ropy, that I thought of\u00a0<strong>KALI BICHROMICUM<\/strong>, and thought it must be the remedy; but it did not even ameliorate, and she got worse all the time, until one day she mentioned that she had great cutting and burning on urinating, which she must do very frequently.<\/p>\n<p>On the strength of the urinary symptom, for I knew nothing of its curative powers on the respiratory organs at that time, I gave her\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS<\/strong>. The effect was magical.<\/p>\n<p>It is needless to describe the mutual delight of both physician and patient in such a case, for it was astonishing the rapidity with which the perfect and permanent cure of the case was accomplished.<\/p>\n<p>Let us notice still further the effects of this remedy<\/p>\n<p>upon the urinary organs by calling attention to a few symptoms that have been both produced in proving and cured\u00a0<strong>AB USU IN MORBIS<\/strong>. I have learned to place the\u00a0<strong>HIGHEST ESTIMATE\u00a0<\/strong>upon such symptoms. To be sure there are many symptoms in our great Materia Medica that have come to us through clinical sources only, and very valuable ones, too. But they cannot be received with such implicit confidence on short acquaintance as those that are both pathogenetic and clinical. They should always be separated when possible, as they were in &#8220;Hull&#8217;s Jahr&#8221; of old. Here are a few of them. &#8220;<strong>VIOLENT PAINS IN BLADDER, WITH FREQUENT URGING TO URINATE, WITH INTOLERABLE TENESMUS.&#8221; &#8220;VIOLENT BURNING CUTTING PAINS IN THE NECK OF THE BLADDER.&#8221; &#8220;BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER URINATING FEARFUL CUTTING PAINS IN THE URETHRA.&#8221; &#8220;CONSTANT URGING TO URINATE; URINE PASSED DROP BY DROP WITH EXTREME PAIN.&#8221; &#8220;URINE SCALDS HIM; IT IS PASSED DROP BY DROP.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No homeopathist meeting these symptoms in a case would fail to think of\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>at once, no matter what else ailed the patient, as it has cured the most diverse and varied diseases when occurring in conjunction with these urinary symptoms. How any physician of any school can deny the truth of\u00a0<strong>SIMILIA SIMILIBUS CURANTUR<\/strong>\u00a0in the light of such testimony or proof can only be accounted for on the principle of &#8220;none so blind as those who will not see.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>has also very decided action upon the skin. In erysipelas it is sometimes the best remedy, and choice has to be made between it and APIS, which also sometimes has\u00a0<strong>GREAT URINARY IRRITATION<\/strong>\u00a0in such cases. In the\u00a0<strong>APIS\u00a0<\/strong>cases there is apt to be more\u00a0<strong>OEDEMA<\/strong>; in\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS<\/strong>\u00a0more\u00a0<strong>BLISTERING<\/strong>. In\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>the\u00a0<strong>BURNING\u00a0<\/strong>is more intense than<\/p>\n<p>under the\u00a0<strong>APIS<\/strong>, while in the latter there is more\u00a0<strong>STINGING<\/strong>. The urinary symptoms, if present, are very much more intense under\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS<\/strong>. Again, the mind symptoms of the two remedies are quite different. In the APIS cases, aside from the stinging pains which make the patient cry out sharply at times, especially if the eruption inclines TO &#8220;go in&#8221; and attack the membranes of the brain, the patient may not be so very restless and complaining; but in the\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>case the patient is uneasy, restless, dissatisfied, distressed, sometimes moaning or violently crying; wants to be moved about constantly. The mind symptoms actually make one think of\u00a0<strong>ARSENICUM ALBUM<\/strong>, and when we take into account the intense burning it is doubly so. So that it would be very easy to get confused between these two remedies, as well as\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0<strong>APIS<\/strong>. If great thirst is also present it would make us think of\u00a0<strong>ARSENIC<\/strong>. And now we are upon the skin,\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>is a great remedy for burns, both locally as an application and internally for the more chronic conditions and sequelae. In all skin troubles where blebs or watery vesicles form, which burn and itch, or when touched burn and smart, we do well to remember\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS<\/strong>, and look further to find more symptoms, if present, to corroborate it. Hering used to challenge skeptics to burn their fingers, and then cure them by dipping the fingers into water medicated with\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS<\/strong>. So great was his faith in it.<\/p>\n<p>I will call attention to a sensational symptom of\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS\u00a0<\/strong>which I believe is underestimated in practice. It is the sensation of\u00a0<strong>Burning<\/strong>. If any remedy deserves to be placed alongside\u00a0<strong>ARSENICUM\u00a0<\/strong>for burning, it is this one. I will quote so as to bring all together, in a way to impress upon our memory the burnings of\u00a0<strong>CANTHARIS<\/strong>. &#8220;Inflammation of the eyes particularly, when caused by a\u00a0<strong>BURN<\/strong>.&#8221; &#8220;<strong>BURNING\u00a0<\/strong>in mouth, throat, and stomach.&#8221; &#8220;Great thirst, with\u00a0<strong>BURNING\u00a0<\/strong>pain in throat and stomach.&#8221; &#8220;Violent\u00a0<strong>BURNING\u00a0<\/strong>pain in stomach in region of pylorus.&#8221; &#8220;Violent\u00a0<strong>BURNING\u00a0<\/strong>pain and heat through whole intestinal tract.&#8221; &#8220;Passage of white or pale-red tough mucus with the stool like scrapings from intestines, with streaks of blood; after stool colic relieved,\u00a0<strong>BURNING<\/strong>, biting, and stinging in the anus.&#8221; &#8220;Great\u00a0<strong>BURNING\u00a0<\/strong>pain in the ovarian regions.&#8221; &#8220;Peritonitis with\u00a0<strong>BURNING\u00a0<\/strong>pain, abdomen sensitive and tenesmus of the bladder.&#8221; &#8220;<strong>BURNING\u00a0<\/strong>and stinging of the larynx, especially when attempting to hawk up tough mucus.&#8221; &#8220;<strong>BURNING\u00a0<\/strong>in the chest.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We have already spoken of the\u00a0<strong>BURNINGS\u00a0<\/strong>connected with affections of the urinary organs, and also of the\u00a0<strong>BURNINGS\u00a0<\/strong>of the skin in erysipelas and other eruptions upon the surface.<\/p>\n<p>This seems to me to be sufficient to impress upon the reader the value of this symptom belonging to this remedy. I will close by calling attention to its effect upon the membranes to\u00a0<strong>INCREASE THEIR SECRETION.<\/strong>\u00a0This action is positive and is a valuable indication for its use.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&#8220;Materia Medica&#8221; is a term commonly used in the field of homeopathy to refer to a comprehensive collection of information on the characteristics and therapeutic uses of various natural substances, including plants, minerals, and animal products.<\/p>\n<p>One such work is &#8220;Materia Medica,&#8221; a book written by Benoit Mure, a French homeopath, in the 19th century. The book is considered a valuable resource for homeopaths and is still widely used today.<\/p>\n<p>In &#8220;Materia Medica,&#8221; Mure provides detailed information on over 100 homeopathic remedies, including their sources, preparation methods, physical and mental symptoms, and indications for use. He also discusses the philosophy and principles of homeopathy, as well as its history and development.<\/p>\n<p>The book is known for its clear and concise writing style, and it has been praised for its accuracy and depth of knowledge. It remains a popular reference for homeopaths and students of homeopathy.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, &#8220;Materia Medica&#8221; by Benoit Mure is an important work in the field of homeopathy and is highly recommended for anyone interested in learning about the use of natural remedies in the treatment of various health conditions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/materiamedica.net\/\">Online Materia Medica\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Get\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/drmahesh.net\/online-consultation\/\">Online Homeopathy Consultation<\/a>\u00a0And Homeopathy Medicines Free Homeopathy Medicines Consultation Safe and Effective Remedies for You and Your Family<\/p>\n<p><strong>Online\u00a0consultation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Homoeopathy studies the whole person.
