Homeopathy LibraryColocynthis
Reason for use
The strongest characteristic, calling for the use of this remedy, is an agonizing pain in the abdomen, cawing the patient to bend over double. Relief is obtained by motion, such as twisting, turning, and wriggling around, and the motion is kept up steadily while the pain lasts; the pain is made worse after eating or drinking the least amount. This pain may occur alone, or in the dysentery, cholera etc. The doubling over of the patient and pressing on the abdomen, is the chief characteristic. In morbus coxalgia, where there is a sensation as of being encircled with an iron band, screwed up tightly.
