Reason for useCowperthwaite

Acts primarily upon the nervous: system, causing an intensely acute susceptibility to morbid impressions, and in the motor sphere giving rise to general exhaustion and prostration. Through the nervous system it acts prominently upon the liver and upon the digestive and respiratory mucous membranes, producing irritation, and giving rise to congestion, catarrh, and other abnormal conditions to which these parts are especially liable. The leading feature of Chamomilla is its excessive sensitiveness to pain, accompanied usually by great peevishness. and irritability, and the relief from motion. Characteristic symptoms.
