John Henry Clarke M.D.
Clinical - Vertigo every time he blows his nose with a sense of fulness
in the ears.
Kent présenté par le
Dr Robert Séror.
Mind:
Picture of something on fire; itching (and burning)/rubs and scratches wherever
the eruption appears.
Impatient/willing to quarrel/anxious/fear of death; poor
memory/disclined to work; is BUSY scratching to relieve the itching and BUSY
walking to relieve the restlessness, that interruption makes impatient
and ready to quarrel.
Head: The
dull frontal headache begins on waking at 5 h. and passes away after lying
awake for a while; during the fore-noon there is pain, fullness and pressure in
forehead with heat of the face, < in spells
until afternoon when it ext. to the outer part of r. orbital ridge and
ext. through to the occiput + nausea
which lasts until evening.
Some of the head pains go from the cerebellum to the forehead or r.
temple/boring pain in the temples come on several times a day; the pain coming
and going across the forehead just above the eyes; a rending
(= schießend) pain in back of the eyeballs.
1. Headache < least motion, 2. intense vertigo coming in the
afternoon in a spot over r. eye. Itching and stinging of the scalp.
Eye: In r.
eye a feeling of fullness ext. 1. parotid gland, 2. sub lingual, 3. r. side of
the face and head.
The margins of the lids sore/crusted over; lids inflamed < in the
morning with a discharge of sticky fluid; eyeballs inflamed with stye-like
ulceration.
Rending pains in the eyeballs; could not keep his eyes open yet it
pained to keep them shut; eyes feel tired. + heaviness .
Ears:
parotid glands swollen/soreness on pressure; pain as if mumps commencing: sharp
pains in both ears followed by watery discharge of the same sticky character
that is present in the saliva.
Nose: watery
discharge with bloody scabs on the inside; small scabs come from the nose which
may be dry or moist and bloody; usually mixed with a copious discharge which
may be greenish or light colored
and the head feels stuffed; the itching, stinging and tickling are always
present; rubs and scratches because his nose itches in-/outside and the more he
rubs it the more it burns so he stops for a while until he is
driven to rub and scratch again only to be compelled to stop while there
is little skin left on his nose.
On top of his nose is a shining redness like a rum blossom; the nose is
swollen and the eruption on it contains a clear colourless fluid; as the
swelling goes down it is followed by itching and to rub it only increases
the desire for more rubbing.
Pain in the posterior nares with green scabs with bleeding after removal
of the scabs.
Epistaxis morning and night on blowing the nose.
Red like erysipelas; shining red, and sore to touch; it is more marked
on r. side in the beginning and then ext. both sides of the nose and to the
face.
An ineffectual desire to sneeze.
Face: Pain
over r. malar bone going to the l. next day and here you will see one of the
characteristic red spas the size of a 25 cent piece feeling as if red pepper
had been rubbed in; from the malar bone shooting
pains to the temple and forehead in the evening, < by setting the
jaws together.
The sub maxillary gland swollen and tender on pressure.
The eruption on the face and between the eyes contains a colourless
fluid; there will also be swelling and puffiness under the eyes; in keeping
with this remedy we find the heat and redness of the whole r. side
of the face with a sore bruised feeling.
Mouth:
Constant wetting of the lips < dryness and burning; a symptom common to many
remedies perhaps from nervousness; saliva leaves the lips sticky; whitish
saliva leaves a bad taste in the mouth in the morning
on waking; a sickish taste as if he had been drinking warm mineral
water.
Tongue coated white/dry/swollen/thick on waking/numb (with ulceration at
the tip following scarlet fever). Edge of the tongue covered with a double row
of small painful vesicles.
Periodical attacks of salivation for months; at night the pillow is wet
and in the daytime the saliva accumulates and causes continued swallowing (Merc).
Throat: On
rising in the morning must spend much time hawking up from the pharynx dark
green scabs and strings of tough mucus tinged with dark blood and coughing from
the trachea green scabs corresponding
to the green discharge from the nose.
Burning and dryness of the throat with soreness in throat and in the
posterior nares on swallowing solids or fluids.
R. side of the throat always sore.
Magen:
Appetite increased but the food does not digest; it sours in the stomach;
appetite ravenous and he must have his dinner on the minute or he feels faint;
(morning/cannot wait for breakfast); sour condition of
the stomach with nausea (day and night); thought of food can bring on
nausea with gagging and retching and inability to vomit; with the disordered
stomach are sickening pains and eructations of much offensive gas.
Thirst for cold water which causes burning in the stomach with urging to
stool, followed by loose and dark brown offensive stool, much tenesmus lasting
several days and gradually subsiding into painless diarrhoea.
Abdomen: On
the abdomen blotches the size of a 25 cent piece,
Itching/burning, with little pimples on the blotches; this is the form
of the eruption wherever it is present.
A dull pain r. in the region of the kidney ext. up the back to the
occiput.
Cramps in abdomen during stool with rumbling and the passing of much
offensive flatus; these colicky pains come on about 10 h. lasting from 1 to 3
hours.
The usual desire for morning stool is absent;
Rektum:
Itching and burning of the anus; it is scalding hot and raw as from a bite;
burning of the glans penis and there is a strong smelling discharge from the
glans; the itching of the scrotum comes from spots like bee
stings; these spots are of the usual circumscribed character that swell
and burn and itch; rubbing < itching/stinging/burning (= general).
Stool:
scanty, lumpy, and expelled with effort; the first part of the stool is hard
and scratches the anus; it is followed by a soft stool; after stool he has the
sensation that he has not finished so he sits and strains until
stool comes. (Merc.)
Female organs:
The itching of the vulva is so intense that she feels as if she could tear it
to pieces; this symptom returned at intervals for years, cured by Culx.
Menses come too soon with a profuse dark clotted flow; violent pains in
the uterus compelling her to go to bed.
Throat:
Hoarse can scarcely speak a word; hoarseNESS in the morning.
Respiration: Deep sighing breathing with constant desire for a deep
breath; breath foul and it seemed as if he could smell it himself.
Cough:
distressing cough caused by burning in the chest; a whistling strangling
choking cough with red face and water running from the eyes or it may be a dry
hacking cough, present day and night; the cough is mostly
in the morning with the feeling as if he would vomit; with the cough
there is pain low down in the back; there is coughed up a small amount of
yellowish white expectoration; sometimes there is one constant racking
cough lasting fifteen minutes ending in a long loud inspiration with
blue face and protruding eyes followed by great languor and sweat.
Constant desire to sneeze and cough # discharge of quantities of mucus
from the throat which does not relieve the inclination to cough.
Chest: In
the apex of the r. lung there is soreness < deep breathing or raising r.
arm, and occasional dull pain in the lower part of the r. lung; a painful
condition when you consider the desire for deep breathing
which is present with oppression and anxiety in the chest; other
symptoms give him much trouble; a sensation of fullness in r. lung, soreness on
stooping, leaning forward, raising the r. shoulder, and with it all
there is, the sensation of a rubber band around the r. lung; not all the
pains are dull, there are sudden cutting pains running up and down lasting a
minute; there is rawness, a bruised feeling in the right chest;
drawing, clawing pains in the right lung going to the left lung and
staying there; these pains lasting several hours each day; with these
conditions you would expect soreness on stooping, leaning forward, or
raising the right shoulder.
Extremities:
Hands/fingers hot and burning, „As if frozen“, with PAIN; the burning of the
palms and on the thumb is as if the hand had been rubbed against nettles;
itching, burning, as if he must tear the flesh
for relief while the back of the hands felt cold and benumbed.
Rose red, colored, burning eruption on the arm < heat; arms and hands
are numb and prickling; there is the everlasting itching that is present all
through this remedy; the eruption with its colourful fluid, burning
after scratching and with it the desire to tear the skin off.
Coldness of the r. hand while the left hand is warm.
Lower limbs feel heavy with an uneasy restlessness > open air; his
feet are tired all day long yet he must drag himself into the open air for
relief; he wishes that he knew some place where he could put his poor,
tired, heavy limbs that would give him rest.
On the thigh there is the blotch the size of a twenty-five cent piece,
with little pimples on it, that itches and burns like a flea bite.
There is aching of the legs from the knee down; there is no position
that will make the pain less so, he must get up out of his chair and take a
walk in the open air; there is little comfort to his feet while walking
as the soles are tender and there is intense itching on the tops of the
feet.
Sleep:
restless with much tossing about in sleep; the heat of the bed causes him to
waken frequently; he must rise early in the morning to move around for relief,
he is unrefreshed by sleep which has been restless,
and full of dreams of quarrels, fights, and of the dead.
Hot flushes „As if a chill“ would follow, followed by warm perspiration
which is strong smelling and sticky; this stickiness is also noticed in the
saliva.
Skin: His
skin torments him almost beyond endurance, itching, burning, heat, all combine
to make him miserable; the skin feels better while scratching but worse after
scratching; there is no comfort at home or abroad,
in bed or out of it and a place of amusement is not to be thought of; he
scratches which makes more trouble yet he must scratch to relieve that
terrible, constant itching; you may truthfully say that this remedy has
many outward manifestations.
R. sided with the feeling of having been poisoned; sharp stinging pains
all over the body like needles; lightning like; darting here and there, <
light pressure; > hard pressure.
Head, nose and limb symptoms seem to grow < until 19 h. > 20 h.;
in an hour or two they are gone; symptoms seem most severe from 18 – 19 h.
All symptoms, pain, itching, burning < in a warm room/> in open
air, although he is so tired and weak that he can scarcely move, cannot walk
straight, with soreness and aching all over the body, yet he is so nervous
that he finds it impossible to keep still; there is almost constant
motion of the hands and feet.
