Homeopathy LibraryChamomilla
Reason for use
Chamomilla is especially adapted to those women and children of a nervous, excitable temperament suffering from rheumatic troubles ; the patient is peevish and irritable and
whines continually — if a child, is soothed by petting ; the adult is very sensitive to pain, it seems unendurable and they continually whine and complain.
The aggravations are marked, especially at night while in bed ; the pains become unendurable driving them out of bed and compelling them to move about.
