Berberis Vulgaris

The usual preparations of Berberis are made from the root bark. Berberis

mahonia has a great local repute in the popular treatment of the low fever (typhoid) of the Rocky

mountains, an infusion of the fresh plant being used. Chills and fever are among the prominent

• ▸effects of Berb.
• ▸vulg.
• ▸: "Coldness of body with hot face, commencing 11 a.
• ▸m.
• ▸; burning heat in

afternoon, < during night." Ague with enlargement of spleen, of spleen pains. Affections of liver

and kidneys are strongly marked; but Berb. is a medicine of wide range. Movement < its

complaints. Stitches are frequent, and a "bubbling sensation" or "bubbling stitches" are

characteristic. A bubbling feeling as if water were coming up through the skin. Tearing, burning

pains or bubbling sensation in joints. The mental condition is one of indifference, apathy.

Melancholy, with inclination to weep. There is aversion to darkness, terrifying apparitions in the

twilight. In the head there is vertigo and heaviness. Darting and shooting pains often changing

their localities; < movement, > open air. Heat of head after dinner or in afternoon. Puffy feeling

in head; as if it were becoming larger. Scalp tense. The face is pale, with dingy grey tinge,

sunken cheeks, deep-set eyes, surrounded with bluish and blackish grey border. Mouth dry and

sticky; painful white blisters on tip of tongue. The pit of the stomach is puffed up. Sticking pain

in region of liver and gall-bladder shooting up to left shoulder, < by pressure. Gall-stone colic,

followed by jaundice. Gnawing pain in right hypochondrium, shooting up to left scapula. Pains

shoot down from tenth rib to navel. Burning in either inguinal region (especially right). Berberis

produces both constipation (sheep-dung stools) and diarrhsa, and a number of symptoms about

the anus. Hémorrhoids, with itching or burning, particularly after stool, which frequently is hard

and covered with blood. Fistula in ano with painful pressure in perincum, extending deep into

pelvis (left side). The urinary organs are markedly affected. The emission of urine is frequently

accompanied by pains in thighs and loins. Lancinating, or tearing, bubbling pains in region of

kidneys; < stooping and rising again, sitting or lying; > standing. Violent sticking pains in

bladder, extending from kidneys into urethra, with urging to urinate. Many cases of (especially

right) renal colic have been cured by it. Frequent urging to urinate. Urine dark yellow, red,

becoming turbid, copious; mucous sediment, or transparent, jelly-like or reddish, bran-like

sediment. Urine slimy when passed, depositing copious loamy yellowish sediment. Greenish

urine depositing mucus. During urination burning in urethra, or bladder, pressure in bladder,

cutting, burning, or stitches in urethra. Dragging or lancinating pains in spermatic cord,

extending into testes. Cold feeling in prepuce, glans, testes, and scrotum. In the female a marked

symptom is absence of pleasurable sensation during coition. Uterine symptoms and leucorrhsa

associated with painful urinary symptoms. DysmenorrhéSa, pains radiating in all directions down

thighs, &c. Vagina intensely painful; reddened. Violent pain in back, with menses which are too

scanty. It is a leading remedy in lumbago; pains extend from back, round body, down leg; with

red sediment in urine. Numbness, stiffness, and lameness in kidney region. Many old troubles in

the back. Sufferings < by fatigue. Aching in small of back; < sitting; or lying; in the morning on

• ▸awakening.
• ▸Neuralgia under finger-nails.
• ▸B.
• ▸Simmons has verified a symptom of Berb.
• ▸which

may be regarded as characteristic. A gentleman of 52 complained of rheumatic pains in his legs

and loss of walking power. After he had walked a short distance he was compelled to stop from a

feeling of intense weariness, heaviness, lameness, and stiffness of the legs, which fell sore as if

bruised. A single dose effected a complete cure, improvement commencing on the fourth day.

• ▸Stuart Close (H.
• ▸P.
• ▸xix.
• ▸218) records the cure with Berb.
• ▸200 of a woman who had cutting,

burning pains in the balls of the feet on stepping. On, standing with most of the weight on the

heels she had no pain. On rising in morning sensation in soles as if stepping on needles. There is

great weakness, like fainting, after a walk, with perspiration and heat on the upper part of the

body; cold, pale, sunken face and oppression of breathing. Great relaxation, with disinclination

to do anything. On the indication "tumours and sessile growths," Ozanam cured a case of

• ▸polypus of vocal cords, red, with a sessile base.
• ▸Thuja had failed.
• ▸Berb.
• ▸200 was given at first

with good effect, the attenuation being gradually reduced with increasingly good effect until the

growth disappeared entirely under the 1x, Guernsey admirably sums up the remedy as follows:

"Affects particularly the lumbar region; kidneys; uterus. The patient is sometimes unable to tell

the exact locality, but the pain is somewhere in the back and shoots up the back; or into the

spermatic cord, or testes, bladder, buttocks or legs. The pain may shoot up or down, or both

ways. Pains may be felt all over the body, emanating from the back; the pains are of a sticking,

pricking, lancinating, or jerking character, flying about now here and now there. There is often a

bubbling sensation in the region of the kidneys; this sensation may occur elsewhere, but it is
