Piper Nigrum is prepared from black pepper. I have found
it very effective against sneezing
problems where the other well-known remedies had failed. It is
especially beneficial to those patients who are allergic to black pepper. These
patients have an outburst of sneezing as soon as black pepper is sprinkled on
anything. The remedy is also effective in treating the problems of patients who
sneeze due to reasons other than allergy to black pepper. The patient of Piper Nigrum remains by
nature sad and depressed. The patient
cannot concentrate on anything. His thoughts become scattered. The patient is
startled by the slightest sound. He feels severe pain and burning in the eyeballs
as if they are about to explode. If
there is itching in the nose and sneezing also, then Piper Nigrum should be
used. The Piper Nigrum patient has a tendency
to bleed from the nose. His lips are dry, his head feels heavy and
there is pressure over his temples. There is pain
and burning sensation in the tonsil area of the throat. The patient
feels very thirsty. The stomach is full of gas. The patient may also suffer
from severe intestinal colic.
There is burning inside the bladder and along the urethra. The
bladder appears full and distended. There is difficulty in
passing urine. The patient, despite a constant urge, cannot urinate. Piper Nigrum
is very useful in alleviating this condition. In all ailments of Piper Nigrum,
the feeling of pressure and burning is common.
A Piper Nigrum patient also exhibits the symptoms of heart disease.
There is pain in the chest, provoking cough. The heart beats
very fast. There is difficulty in breathing. The patient feels pain
over the heart area. Sometimes the pulse feels slow and interrupted. As
lactating mothers produce much more milk than the need of their baby,
Piper
Nigrum is very useful in reducing the formation of milk in such
women.
