J.T.KENT
- This remedy belongs to patients that are called delicate, that are oversensitive to impressions.
- The mind takes part in this oversensitiveness and manifests itself by a state of extreme irritability.
- Every little thing that disturbs the patient makes him intensely angry, abusive and impulsive.
- The impulses will overwhelm him and make him wish to kill his best friend in an instant.
- Impulses also that are without cause sometimes crop out in Hepar.
- A man may have a sudden impulse to stab his friend.
- A barber has an impulse to cut the throat of his patron while in the chair.
- Mothers may have an impulse to throw the child into the fire or an impulse to set herself on fire; an impulse to do violence and to destroy.
- These symptoms increase to insanity and then the impulses are often carried out.
- It becomes a mania to set fire to things.
- The patient is quarrelsome, hard to get along with; nothing pleases; everybody disturbs oversensitiveness to persons, to people and to places.
- He desires a constant change of persons and things and surroundings and each new surrounding or person or thing again displeases and makes him irritated. With this irritability of temper and physical irritability there is a tendency to suppuration in parts.
- Localized inflammations incline to suppurate, especially in glands and cellular tissue do we have suppuration and ulcers.
- The glands of the neck, axilla and groin and the mammary glands swell, become hard and suppurate.
- First the hard swellings with the feeling as if they had sticks jagging in them, then it becomes highly inflamed and red over the part and ultimately it suppurates, discharges and heals slowly.
- The bone even suppurates and takes on necrosis and caries. Felons around the root of the nail and ends of the fingers.
- The nail suppurates and loosens and comes off. Sensation of splinters under the nails, even when they do not suppurate.
- The nails become hard and brittle. Warts crack open and bleed, sting and burn and suppurate.
- Hepar is especially useful in felons in such a constitution as described, but sometimes you will have nothing more than the fact that the patient is a scrawny, chilly patient, who is always taking cold and subject to felons.
- I have often had to give Hepar on no better information and have known it to stop the tendency to felons.
- It also competes with Silica. The patient is often scrawny, and has a tendency to enlargement of glands. The lymphatic glands are generally hard and enlarged, They are chronically enlarged without suppuration, and at any cold that comes on some particular gland may suppurate.
