Constipation, Some worms can obstruct certain organs like the colon,
liver and the bile duct, causing constipation and other problems.
In constipation Nux-v. similar
to several remedies:
Lyc.: has constipation
with ineffectual urging to stool, but under this remedy, the ineffectual urging
is caused by constriction of the rectum
and anus.
Carb-v.: urging to stool
similar to Nux vomica, relieved by the
passage of flatus, showing that
that was the cause of the urging.
Opium, Bry. and Alum.: the constipation is unattended by urging for
stool.
Opium: constipation from inactivity of the bowels;
the stool consists of hard, round, black
balls.
Bry.: constipation results
from dryness of the
alimentary tract. The stools are
large, dry, and hard.
Marked inactivity of the rectum characterizes Alumina. Even a
soft stool requires great effort for its
evacuation.
!!!Castor
oil vapour acts as a purgative!!!
[H.C. Allen, MD]
Dr. John Patterson offers instructions on using
bowel nosodes:
“If I find a percentage of non-lactose
fermenting organisms in a stool greater than 50%, I at once determine that the
administration of bowel nosode is contraindicated,
and experience has shown that a nosode given at
such a time produces a negative phase with a corresponding period of vital
depression in the patient.”
“Do not repeat a bowel nosode within three
months”.
Carb-ac.: Constipation,
with horribly offensive breath
[E.A.
Farrington]
Lac-d.:
Intense headache, located in the fore-part of the head. The pains are throbbing, associated with
nausea, vomiting, most obstinate constipation, great chilliness
[Robert
Medhurst]
Constipation is defined as bowel movements that
are infrequent or difficult to pass. At any one time between 6 - 30% of the
population may report constipation and as
a rough benchmark the “normal” frequency of
bowel movements for an adult is 3-12 per week. At some stage, most people will
experience constipation and its causes
are many and varied.
In my own practice, the primary causes are
stress, depression, a lack of exercise, water, dietary fibre or oil, not
necessarily in that order. In its chronic form, constipation
is usually a symptom rather than a disease, and
in addition to the above, it may also be associated with anorexia, autonomic
neuropathy, the use or overuse of prescribed,
OTC or other drugs, hypothyroidism, IBS,
diverticular disease, obesity, delayed defaecation urge, pregnancy, anorectal
fissures or haemorrhoids, diabetes, scleroderma
or spinal cord injury, to name just a few.
Dealing with the cause of the problem is
obviously the best method of managing constipation but where the cause cannot
be determined, the constipation fails to respond
to initial treatment or it’s occurred without
any notable concomitant pathological symptoms, homeopathy is worth considering.
Over many years of treating this disorder,
I and several noted authorities 2-10 have found
that great relief can be offered to sufferers of constipation by a small group
of homoepathic remedies, the main prescribing features of which are outlined
below.
Alum.: Often very useful
with children and the elderly and is associated with constipation that may last
for days or weeks, and is due to dryness and inactivity of the intestines where
stools accumulate and are very difficult to evacuate, often reducing the desire
for a bowel movement. Inactivity of the bladder may also be seen here as
well as general dryness of mucus membranes and
skin, debility, and a sluggish metabolism. Great straining is required to pass
hard and dry stools, which may also be clay-like and stick to the rectum, and
these symptoms often guide the homeopath to prescribe Alumina. Confirmatory symptoms
include a sore rectum and a need to strain to facilitate
a bowel movement. Evacuation is often preceded
by painful urging. The sufferer may also have very little appetite, only
swallowing small amounts of food at a time, and an aversion to meat. Symptoms
are worse in the morning, worse on waking and from inactivity and better in the
evening and on alternate days.
Bry.: Characterised by
irritability and dryness of mucus membranes. The constipation sufferer who will
commonly respond to Bryonia may complain of hard, dry, thick brown stools that
may look burnt or bloody and they’ll often have little or no desire to pass
them. There’s usually accompanying weakness, hunger, irritability, a dry mouth,
thirst, particularly for large quantities of cold water, nausea a bursting or
splitting headache, as well as sticking or tearing abdominal pain or colic.
Symptoms are worse in the morning, from hot weather, moving the head or any
sort of motion, and are better from rest.
Graph.: Stools here are
not passed without significant straining and the appearance of the stools are
quite characteristic- hard, large, lumpy stools that are joined together by
slimy strings or threads. The sufferer may be chilly and overweight and may
appear nervous, fidgety and timid. There may be a history of itching or burning
skin disorders, burning haemorrhoids, rectal prolapse or anorectal fissures.
<: warmth; >: drinking warm or hot milk;
Hydr.: chronic
constipation, where it stands alone and seems to be the cause of other
ailments. (Give the tincture in five drop doses.)
Nat-m.: Stool dry and crumbling
and as with several other remedies mentioned here, dry mucus membranes are
often seen in this remedy picture. There may be bleeding from the rectum or
anus with burning and stitching pain following a bowel movement. Weakness and
depression may be evident and the sufferer may also experience blinding
headaches. Symptoms are worse from mental exertion and better from cold bathing
and abstaining from food.
Nux-v.: Often an
association here between constipation and the overuse of alcohol, coffee or
other stimulants, as well as mental overwork, stress or a lack of exercise.
Frequent and ineffectual urging to stool is
usually seen here- sufferers feel an urge for a bowel movement and on doing
this often only pass a small amount of faecal material, leading to a sense of
incomplete evacuation. The sufferer may be overly sensitive or irritable,
nervous and chilly and may be prone to liver congestion, congestive headaches
and itching haemorrhoids. Symptoms are worse from mental exertion, after eating
and in cold weather, and better from rest and in damp or wet weather.
Sil.: In this instance,
constipation is often related to the retention of faecal material in the colon.
A characteristic symptom here is that stools are only produced after much
straining and on emerging from the rectum they soon retreat back into it. The
sufferer is often anxious, chilly with poor cold tolerance and often
experiences sweating of
the head and hands as well as anal fistulae and
haemorrhoids. Symptoms are worse before and during menses and better for warmth
or in wet or humid weather.
Op.: Round, dry, black, pellet- like stools that
are only passed on an irregular basis. As in the case of Silica, stools may
emerge slightly and then recede back into the rectum. Sufferers often
experience pain in the rectum and little or no desire to defaecate. Most
physical functions in this instance are sluggish Symptoms are worse from warmth
or
heat and better from prolonged walking.
Plb-met.: The symptoms
here may be consistent with intestinal paralysis. Hard, dry, lumpy, black
stools or stools resembling sheep dung are a notable feature. The sufferer often
+ colic and anal spasms caused by urging, and mental depression may also be
seen here. One of the guiding symptoms in this instance is a feeling as if the
navel is
drawn backwards towards the spine by a string.
< motion and > pressure.
Verat.: For those with
constipation who have to strain vigorously to the point of exhaustion and a
cold sweat to produce large stools. It’s often very helpful in infantile
constipation and other symptoms such as mental depression or a sullen
indifference, headaches, as well as coldness, weakness and vomiting, are useful
in guiding the prescriber to this remedy. < wet or cold weather; >:
walking or warmth;
Aesc-h.: “As if
the rectum is filled with sticks, or sharp pains that shoot upwards”. There may
be lower back pain < from walking or stooping. The sufferer may appear to be
depressed and irritable and may complain of a burning anal pain with chills
travelling up and down the back. Prolapse and haemorrhoids are often present,
and these are particularly painful after a bowel movement. Stools are hard, dry
and difficult to pass and there may be a feeling of fullness. Symptoms <
standing/heat; > cold/moderate or prolonged exercise;
Sep.: Portal
congestion. There is often sadness, weakness, a yellowing of the skin and a
bearing down sensation felt internally. Constipation here is associated with
bleeding and painful haemorrhoids, a feeling of fullness and “As if there were
a ball in the rectum” > defaecation. Pains that shoot upwards may be
reported. Stools are often large
and hard, or appear as dark round balls
connected by mucus. There may be a history of anal prolapse. Symptoms are worse
from rest or prolonged standing and better from exercise or pressure.
Lyc.: In
this instance, Lycopodium is associated with a lack of muscular tone,
eructation, bloating, flatulence, ineffectual urging. small, hard stools that
are difficult to pass
and after being passed there often follows a
feeling of incomplete evacuation. Depression and apprehension may be observed
here and the sufferer may complain of aching haemorrhoids that are very
sensitive to touch. Symptoms are worse from heat and better from motion.
Calc.: Constipation
associated with mental or physical overwork often responds well to Calc carb.
The stools here may be large, chalky and hard at first and then pasty becoming
liquid. There may be sour eructations, abdominal distension and a history of
anal prolapsed as well as a desire for indigestible things. Symptoms are worse
from cold and better from passing flatus.
Plat-met.:
Constipation associated with travelling. There may be an associated abdominal
colic. Stools here are often described as scanty, evacuated with difficulty and
being like soft clay that sticks to the rectum. < from sitting/standing;
> walking;
Hydr.: Atonic
constipation resulted from the overuse of laxatives. The stool small, hard and
fragmented. There’s often a weakness of digestion and liver congestion apparent
here in addition to anal fissuring, rectal prolapse and haemorrhoids. Bowel
movements are associated with spasms, and a smarting rectal pain that lingers
long after the passing of stools. <:
cold air; >: pressure/rest;

Types of constipation:
(a) Constipation with
hard unsatisfactory stools,
(b) Constipation
without urge to pass stools,
(c) Constipation with
bleeding per rectum.
For all the 3 types, Homoeopathic Remedies like
Nux-v. Bry. Calc. Aloe, Sep. etc. work wonders when other dietary precautions
are followed as told by the doctor.
Even the piles and fissures respond very
quickly to the properly selected Homoeopathic remedies by an expert hand.

Op.: In that very dangerous condition,
strangulation of the bowels. There are violent colicky pains and vomiting of
matters having a faecal odor.
[Pearl B. Wheeler]
Since the intestinal canal is governed by the two great systems of
nerves, the sympathetic, presiding over the upper portion and the
cerebro-spinal, taking charge of the lower;
it would be but natural to think of a close association between this canal
and all other parts of the body. Consequently, when a physician has a case of
constipation to deal with, he finds but an index to disorders in the nervous
system and the result and not a cause of trouble.
The character of the stool becomes a guide to the cure of distresses
elsewhere, for seldom will there be found a case of real constipation without
other symptoms in connection with it. The homeopath, who accurately chooses his
remedy with reference to the totality of symptoms will seldom need to resort to
enemata(enema), injections, etc.

[Darius Dinshah]
Homeopathy is one of numerous energy therapies. Light is another, and
each color has different effects. Yellow light stimulates the intestines. For
ordinary constipation, obtain a clean glass jar and fill with pure water. Wrap
it entirely in yellow plastic and expose it to the sun’s rays for about an
hour. Dose: half a cup.

Von Verstopfung spricht man, wenn weniger als drei Stuhlentleerungen pro Woche erfolgen. Dann wird der Nahrungsbrei durch Wasserentzug stark eingedickt und der Stuhl wird hart. Dies erschwert die Darmentleerung und kann Beschwerden verursachen, z.B. Völle- oder Druckgefühl im Bauch, Bauchschmerzen, Blähungen, Durchfälle mit Bauchkrämpfen sowie Analfissuren.
Die häufigsten Ursachen für Verstopfung sind:
Fehlernährung, z.B. zu wenig Faser- und Ballaststoffe,
zu geringe Flüssigkeitsaufnahme,
Bewegungsmangel,
Stress und psychische Beeinträchtigungen,
Darmerkrankungen, z.B. Krebs, Entzündungen, Verwachsungen, Verengungen (= Stenosen), gestörte Bakterienbesiedlung (= Darmflora),
andere Erkrankungen, z.B. Diabetes mellitus, Multiple Sklerose, Morbus Parkinson, Autoimmunerkrankungen des Binde- und Stützgewebes wie Sklerodermie,
medikamentöse Behandlung, z.B. mit Morphinpräparaten, Schlaf- und Beruhigungsmitteln, Eisenpräparaten, Psychopharmaka, Abführmittelmissbrauch.
Komplementärmedizinische Möglichkeiten
Ernährung:
Umstellung auf faser- und ballaststoffreiche Kost mit hohem Anteil an Obst, Gemüse und Getreide;
abführende Lebensmittel in Speiseplan aufnehmen, z.B. Sauerkraut, Trockenpflaumen, Rhabarber, rote Bete;
Mindesttrinkmenge von 2-3 Liter pro Tag einhalten;
pflanzliche Quellstoffe (Leinsamen oder Weizenkleie), erhöhen das Stuhlvolumen. Um aufquellen zu können, benötigen sie eine ausreichende Flüssigkeitsmenge!
Wasser bindende Substanzen, z.B. Milchzucker, Lactulose, Glaubersalz sind als milde, nebenwirkungsfreie Abführmittel in Apotheken erhältlich;
Regelmäßige körperliche Aktivität: Optimal ist Ausdauersport wie Gehen, Walken, Joggen, Laufen, Schwimmen.
Verhaltensanpassung: z.B. Normalisierung des Lebensrhythmus, regelmäßige Stuhlentleerung, Entspannungsübungen, autogenes Training.
Brottrunk: Ein in Reformhäusern, Bioläden, Supermärkten erhältliches alkoholfreies Gärgetränk, hergestellt aus Getreide aus kontrolliertem Anbau, Sauerteig und Brunnenwasser. Es enthält neben Vitaminen und Spurenelementen auch aktive Fermente (Enzyme). Durch Enzymaktivität kann harter Stuhl aufgeweicht werden,
wodurch Verstopfungen gelindert werden.
Probiotika: Sie habe sich zur Stabilisierung bzw. zum Wiederaufbau der ortsansässigen Bakterien, die für die Funktion des Darmes und der Schleimhaut notwendig
sind (Darmflora), als sinnvoll erwiesen. Sie finden sich in Joghurt bzw. Sauermilchprodukten oder sind als Arzneimittel in Apotheken erhältlich.
Sie sollten therapeutisch auf ärztliche Anordnung eingenommen werden.
Darmspülungen mit reinem Wasser (z.B. Klistier, Irrigator) sind eine altbewährte und nebenwirkungsfreie Alternative zu Abführmitteln und führen zu einer
sofortigen Entleerung des Enddarmes.
