Pneumonia<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

(Inflammation of the lungs caused by infection of a virulent virus; the onset is sudden, begins with
\na sharp chill, followed by very high fever, headache, pain in chest, cough with rusty-colored
\nmucus, rapid breathing which rises to double or triple of the normal rate; well ventilated warm
\nroom, light diet, hot drinks constitute essential requirements; after initial emergency treatment,
\nsupervision of an experienced physician is a must.)
\nRemedies:
\n1) Ferrum Phos 6x<\/strong>: For inflammation of the lungs, high fever, pain, congestion, and short
\nhurried & oppressed breathing, it is the first and the chief remedy. It is of no use after
\nexudation has set in, nor in morbidly active cases. Expectoration of clear blood or rustcolored sputa is observed in cough of pneumonia. It should be given hourly, but less
\nfrequently once the improvement commences. Dr G. W. Lawrence has affirmed that \u201cthis
\nremedy and Veratrum Viride give me better success in the treatment of pneumonia than any
\nremedies I have ever tried.\u201d For pneumonia with faint feeling in stomach, early manifestation
\nof hepatization, and violent congestion, Veratrum Viride 6 should therefore be alternated with
\nFerrum Phos 6x. It raises \u201cthe opsonic index against the diploccus pneumonia, 70 to 109 per
\ncent.\u201d If free perspiration is not established by the use of Ferrum Phos, Kali Sulph 6x should
\nbe alternated two hourly, especially if temperature rises from evening until midnight and then
\nfalls, and the patient suffers from expectoration of loose, rattling, yellow phlegm or watery
\nmucus.
\n2) Antim Tart 30x, 3 doses, every 10 minutes:<\/strong> In case there is great rattling of mucus with
\nlittle expectoration, and there is much drowsiness, debility and sweat, Antim Tart gives
\nample relief. \u201cWhen the patient coughs there appears to be large collection of mucus in the
\nbronchi; it seems as if much would be expectorated, but nothing comes up.\u201d Kali Mur also
\nmay be taken three times a day, if the mucus is thick and white.
\n3) Iodum 3x, one hourly for 3 to 4 days<\/strong>: Right-sided pneumonia with high temperature,
\nblood-streaked sputum, rapidly spreading hepatization, pleuritic effusion, croupy wheezy
\ncough, difficulty in breathing, gets thin despite good appetite, heart feels squeezed.
\n4) Ars Alb 12x or 30x, twice daily for a week<\/strong>: It is very effective if restlessness
\naccompanies pneumonia and the patient fears suffocation while lying down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
