Pain in the gall bladder and the biliary colic associated
with intense burning and discomfort should be treated with Belladonna in a high
potency, one or two doses repeated ten to fifteen minutes apart. This will,
with God’s grace, help relieve the pain. After the initial treatment of
Belladonna, once the pain gets better, the treatment should be continued with
Sulphur and Lycopodium intermittently for a permanent cure. Both of these have
a profound effect on the bile. Bile is
a yellowish green secretion produced in the liver. It is very important for the
digestion of food. The tendency of stone formation in the gall bladder is due
to the altered quality of bile (cholestrosis).
Chelidonium is also very useful in the treatment of gall stones. The pain
usually radiates to the back. The pain of Berberis spreads around, in all
directions. China is also useful in the treatment of pain related to the gall
bladder. The prolonged regular use of Natrum Sulph dissolves the gall stones.
If the gall bladder pain is associated with sugar in the
urine, the urine being abundant in quantity and milky white in colour, then the
most appropriate treatment is Argentum Metallicum. In Kali Carb patients, the
gall bladder problems arise from diabetes. The urinary bladder is irritable and
hypersensitive to pressure.
The patient, who suffers from slowly progressive mental
weakness and is also diabetic, may sometimes be completely cured with Acid Phos.
If the diabetes is due to prolonged anxiety, and there is a severe stinging
type of pain at the gall bladder, and the legs and arms feel slightly achy,
then Tarentula will be found very useful. It does not only offer temporary
relief, but by the grace of God, it can offer a complete cure. Similarly, if
the patient develops carbuncles over the shoulder areas, a very serious
condition, then again Tarentula would be very useful.
