  • Characteristics——Carbon.
  • sulph.
  • combines many characters of its two elements.
  • It was first

brought into notice by its effects on workers in rubber works. Here is an acute case: a girl, aged

15, employed in vulcanising works, was exposed to the fumes one whole day. Before this, she

had had from the fumes, frontal pains and heaviness of the head. After this, the pains became

more violent, and were accompanied by painful contraction of masseters, then by stiffness of

neck and vertebral column; finally of legs and arms. The contracture was generalised, but

nowhere complete, though the jaws could not be separated. Ulcerative stomatitis ensued and

tartar accumulated on the teeth. Among the chronic effects are: Digestive disorders of extreme

severity. Tremor, giddiness, ringing in the ears with poor hearing; inability to sleep; muscular

weakness, more or less ataxia, strong increase of mechanical muscular irritability, disturbance of

sight and sensibility, Romberg's symptom (trophoneurosis; facial hemiatrophy); incontinence of

  • urine; impotence.
  • In the Medical Argus (July to December, 1891) H.
  • H.
  • Crippen has collected

from several sources instances of intoxication of workers with Carb. bisul. The action on vision

was very marked in many cases. Myopia, asthenopia; achromatopsia, dyschromatopsia,

cloudiness and atrophy of optic disc, central scotoma for light and colours; retinal congestion,

arteries and veins tortuous; veins distended, arteries contracted; optic discs pale. Everything

seemed in a fog; as if a spider's web over objects; green or red. One patient had complete right

hemiplegia, following sudden loss of consciousness, blindness of right eye and great impairment

of vision of left. Loss of memory, especially for words, was a very frequent symptom; delusions

were common: "Heard voices and believed he had committed a robbery"; "sensation of a hole

  • close by, into which he was in danger of falling.

slender, nervous woman, the following symptoms: "Sensation, as of a weight between the

scapule, compelling her to bend forward. Throbbing in the dorsal spine as if a heart were beating

there. Constipation with ineffectual urging to stool. Hemorrhage of bright blood from rectum

after stool. Itching of anus after stool, also in the night. Feet swollen, hot and throbbing in the

  • evening.
  • " Carb.
  • sul.
  • has the flatulency of Carbo veg.
  • and the abdominal soreness of Su/phur.
  • It

produces eruptions of herpes and impetigo, discharges excoriating and producing violent itching.

It corresponds to the herpetic diathesis. The pains are burning, tearing, jerking, and stitching and

are apt to return at regular intervals for a long time. Pains come and go quickly. The periodicity

shows itself, as in diarrhoea, which comes every six weeks. The < from warmth common to

  • Carb.
  • v.
  • and Sulph.
  • shows itself in "Toothache brought on by warm food.
  • " Vision > in evening;

tossing in bed. A feeling of vibration and trembling in whole body, particularly in hands.
