Senecio is commonly used in the treatment of
gynaecological problems of young girls. During early
adolescence, the periods may become irregular on exposure to the
cold. If not treated properly in time, the condition may last
throughout their life. In addition to Calcarea Phos, Senecio is also famous
in the treatment of this condition. Young girls do not usually
complain out of shyness. They may be careless in taking a cold
shower, submerge their feet in cold water, remaining wet and exposed
after a shower or walking in the wet weather with naked feet. This can
result in serious irregularity of menstruation. All these symptoms can
be treated with Senecio. Bleeding is the hallmark
of Senecio. The patient bleeds from everywhere, especially the areas
where the mucous membranes and the skin join (junctional areas).
There are important urinary symptoms associated with
Senecio. There is a constant burning pain along the
urethra and continuous urge to pass urine. Senecio is also famous
for the treatment of arthritis. For the kidney pain of Senecio, Pareira
and Berberis work as adjuvants. However,
if other symptoms of Senecio are present, this alone may be curative.
The headache is not very severe but stuns the patient.
Sometimes the patient feels sharp pain in the left
eye, radiating to the left temple area. There is a lot of sneezing and a burning sensation
in the throat. The teeth become very sensitive. There is
pain on the left side of the face. The
inside of the mouth, palate and throat become dry, causing difficulty in
swallowing.
The griping
pain in the abdomen disappears after passing stools. Thin watery stools may also
contain some hard faecal matter. The urine
is very scanty and of dark colour. It may be mixed with blood or
pus. The children may also suffer from irritation of the bladder, causing
frequent burning urination. The patient may also develop headache and pain
in the abdomen.
Young girls may experience irritation of the throat, chest
and bladder before
the onset of periods. These symptoms become relieved after the
periods finish. In case the periods stop and the patient starts bleeding
from the nose, then Senecio may be found useful. Displacement
of the uterus, burning urination or stoppage of urine, severe inflammation of the kidneys and
fever with chills are all the symptoms of Senecio, to be treated
with Senecio. Senecio
illnesses become worse at noon and at night. The patient contracts common cold in the open
air. The symptoms ameliorate with the onset of menstrual bleeding.
The patient feels better if his attention is diverted.
