General
The indications for this remedy are decidedly rheumatic.
Face
Violent tearing and drawing pains in the upper jaw, running from the teeth, up through the malar bones, to the temples.
Stomach
Cancer of the stomach, with characteristic pains-tearing, drawing, etc.
Extremities
We find it particularly indicated in rheumatic pains in the small joints, wrist, finger, ankle, toe joints.
The pains are of a violent, tearing, drawing character, aggravated by contact or movement.
Wrist joints pain intolerably, swollen, red, motion impossible, touch intolerable.
Sometimes these rheumatic pains become general, though typified in these small joints, as the key-note.
Small joints, or all the joints, swell after walking.
Pain as from paralytic weakness in the hands.
