At one time Carbolic acid soap was used in hospitals and
dispensaries as an antiseptic. It has a very pungent smell. Usage in
homoeopathy is quite different. Carbolic Acid in Homoeopathic form is the best treatment
for severe allergic reaction to a sting
by a bee or a wasp. A dose or two can offer complete cure.
Carbolic Acid acts on the sensory perceptions of the body. Its patient
has an unusually sharp sense of smell. The normally imperceptible smell may
easily be noticed by the patient of Carbolic Acid.In Carbolic Acid, the pain is severe and sudden in nature.
It comes on suddenly and disappears just as fast. Some parts of the body may be
numb. Some parts feel as if tied in a rubber band. Carbolic Acid has been found
very useful in the treatment of mouth ulcers.
There is neuralgic type of pain in and around the eye. Carbolic
Acid would prove very useful in treating such a pain that
has settled inside the eye.One symptom of Carbolic Acid is that there is complete
loss of appetite. The abdomen
becomes distended with gas. Excessive amount of distension of the
abdomen in a localised area is typical of Carbolic Acid because Carbolic Acid
causes spasmodic constriction of the intestines at different places. The gas
gets loculated between the so formed constriction rings. Carbolic Acid should
be wellremembered for treating such sicknesses.
The Carbolic Acid patient has a bad taste in the mouth.
There is no sense of thirst, and a loss of appetite. Sometimes, he experiences severe
constipation and at other times, severe diarrhoea. The stools smell very
offensive. In the case of constipation, even the breath smells foul. What this
shows is that the foul gases cannot be expelled naturally. Instead, they become
absorbed through the walls of the intestines and reach the lungs via the blood,
resulting in bad breath.
Carbolic Acid is very important for treating albumin in the urine. Some patients excrete so much albumin in the
urine that it becomes dark like black ink. Terebinthina too, is very useful in
treating this condition. The Carbolic Acid patient frequently gets up at night
to pass urine, which may very well be due to enlargement
of the prostate gland. Carbolic Acid is very useful in the treatment of infections of kidneys, as
well as prostate gland. Carbolic Acid must be kept in mind for any increase in
the frequency of passing urine at night. Some physicians advise Carbolic Acid
to be used in potency 1X; I however do not have any personal experience of
that.Carbolic Acid may be very useful in the treatment of severe backache, especially
when it is radiating down to both the buttocks.
This is its typical characteristic. Carbolic Acid may be the curative treatment for leucorrhoea developing before
puberty. Typically, the periods and leucorrhoeal discharge smell
foul.
Carbolic Acid would cure cramps in the feet and legs, as
well as generalized bone pains, if the patient has the general disposition of Carbolic
Acid. The skin signs of Carbolic Acid are the development of blisters with
itching, burning and pain.
