Carbo Animalis


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.
