![FffiCCS.—Inclination to diarrhoea, two free passages the first day. Awaking after midnight with a large quantity of viscid, tasteless saliva in the mouth, attended with a burning pinching pain in the sto- mach, and with a sensation of distention from flatulency ; after the passage of some wind, the pain is increased, followed by a copious pappy evacuation of the bowels, after which the pain seemed to con- centrate itself in the region of the navel, and is followed by a second passage ; in the morning he had a third passage. (Pehrson.) Copious pappy evacuations ; watery stools, with pain around the navel. (Pehrson.) Frequent discharges of inodorous flatus. (Campos.) Small, excessively offensive discharges of wind. (Hering.) (30.) AflUS.—Violent itching within and around the anus, violent itching ; returning frequently. (30.) Clinical Remarks.—It has proved somewhat useful against pro- lapsus ani; against irritation and constriction of the sphincter-ani; and against piles. (11.) Groins, Bladder and Urine.—Pain in the region of the bladder. (Hering.) Free and frequent discharge of light colored urine, of sufficiently large, but not increased quantity. (Campos, Hering, Williamson.) Pungent and strong odor of the urine. (Williamson, Hering.) [30.] Offensive and pimple-colored urine. Genital Organs.—Sexual passion much increased, with erections at night, during sleep; (Gosewisch, Campos.) Occasionally stitches and drawing through the left testicle, in the abdominal ring and spermatic cord. (Neidhard.) [30.] Menses eight days too soon and more copious, thick and coagulated. Clinical Remarks.—This remedy seems to exert almost as specific an action upon the genital organs as Phosphorus and Platina; it has aroused the sexual organs even in quite elderly persons. Chest.—Increased irritability of the larynx, with soreness of the cartilage. Soreness in the chest, oppression, pressing sticking pain in the chest. (E. Smith, Neidhard, Geist, Williamson.) [30.] Clinical Remarks.—It seems homoeopathic to many attacks of chronic but painful laryngitis, attended with soreness of the chest. (11.) Breast.—Itching on the nipple and around it, in the evening; the nipple next morning is much larger, more red, and the areola darker. A thin brownish crust is formed on the areola. (Hering.) [30.] It may prove useful to soreness of the nipples, and inflammation and suppuration of the breasts. (11.) Respiration.—Oppression in the chest, difficulty of breathing (Bute, Hering.) [30.] 5* Clinical—In two cases of incurable hydrothorax, Fluoric-acid 3d gave much relief. (Jeanes.) [30.]](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b21139039_0026.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
