Carbo Animalis is very similar to Carbo Veg. Carbo Veg is prepared from the coal of vegetable matter, while Carbo Animalis is prepared from the animal ashes. Although they are chemically very closely related, yet in certain symptoms there is a clear distinction between them.
The ailments related to the symptoms of Carbo Animalis
have a tendency to change to cancer. It is particularly useful for the diseases
of old age. Typically, the patient is anaemic, his face is sallow, the limbs
become weak, and the body defences start to decline. As in Carbo Veg, the
glands become hardened, with the tendency towards becoming cancerous. Like
Aesculus, Carbo Animalis is useful in the treatment of clotting of the blood
inside the veins, and the formation of spider webs on the skin.
The Carbo Animalis patient is usually sad and depressed
and likes to be alone. Mostly, he is quiet. At night, he is restless and
frightened. The blood flows towards the
head. The mind is confused. The eyesight is dim and the eyes feel heavy. There
is pain at the nape of the neck. Lips and cheeks are bluish. The nose swells
and bluish lumps develop on its surface. Hearing declines and it is difficult
to recognize the direction of the source of sounds. There is dry nasal cold
with loss of sense of smell. Copper coloured pimples and acne develop on the
face. The head and the face feel warm. Warts appear on the face and on the
hands of old people. The patient has scary dreams.
The stomach of a Carbo Animalis patient feels weak and empty.
After taking food, he feels weak and tired. Heavy lifting
or hard labour physically exhausts him. The hips and wrists hurt.The conventional doctors suggest surgical removal of the
uterus as a treatment of cancer of the cervix. This does not necessarily succeed, however early administration of Carbo Animalis will
cure the condition. It is also useful for the treatment of generalized inflammations
of the uterus and associated pains. The erosion at the cervix of uterus is
associated with leucorrhoea of
burning nature. In Carbo Veg too, there is a similar burning sensation
internally.
Outwardly, the patient feels calm and cool. The prompt
usage of Carbo Animalis for the treatment of the burning type of leucorrhoea can
pre-empt the development of cancer. Carbo Animalis is very useful for the treatment of nausea in pregnancy which
is worse at night. Carbo Animalis must not be forgotten when a woman feels weakness during lactation and
suffers from mental exhaustion. This is a good remedy for cancer of the uterus
as well as cervical cancer. The special
characteristic of Carbo Animalis is the swelling of the lymph glands along with
a bluish colouration of lips and cheeks.
In Carbo Animalis, women have more frequent, heavy and more
prolonged bleeding (menorrhagia). The menstruating woman becomes very weak. As in Sepia, a saddle-shaped darkish area develops on the nose extending to the cheeks. In the absence
of its own specific symptoms, Sepia will not relieve this. A Sepia
lady is usually of a slim build, feels aloof amongst the near
relatives and loses affection
especially towards her husband and children. In fact, she feels indifferent towards them. If such a patient also has a
typical mark on the nose, Sepia should be administered. If
ineffective, Carbo Animalis must be tried. In my experience, Carbo Animalis is
very effective in ailments developing after childbirth. It also cures the mark on the nose. It is useful in treating the nausea of
pregnancy. While associated with other
symptoms of Carbo Animalis, it is very beneficial in treating the induration of
mammary glands and the pain thereof.
It is also useful in the treatment
of deafness. Often, both ears become deaf and voices cannot be
recognised. The direction of the sound is also difficult to ascertain. Amongst
the remedies for deafness is Chinopodium. If the deafness is due to the
degeneration of the nerves, or sequestered secretions inside the ear,
Chinopodium 30 or 200 should be used for two to three months. Sometimes, such a
patient suddenly feels better. Before the recovery of his hearing, he feels
frequent gusting of air into the ears.Outwardly, the patient feels calm and cool. The prompt
usage of Carbo Animalis for the treatment of the burning type of leucorrhoea can
