Homeopathy LibraryEuphorbium Officinarum
Reason for use
The burning, paralytic pains are quite marked in Euphorbium, but its aggravations from rest and beginning to move, and ameliorations from continued motion, are the key to the remedy in whatever type of pains.
It resembles Rhus tox. in its general aggravations, but lacks the marked aggravation from cold damp weather.
Euphorbium antidotes Arsenicum, Nux vomica.
It is compatible with Lachesis, Pulsatilla, Sepia, Sulphur.
