Sanguinaria 614 Sanguinaria is the complete antidote for the allergy to the smell of roses. In Sanguinaria, the headache sometimes recurs every seven days. Other symptoms of Sanguinaria being present, it can be very useful in the treatment of left-sided pain as well. Frozen shoulder, pain and stiffness of the right side of the neck and the upper back respond very well to Sanguinaria. However, Sanguinaria is not of much avail in the treatment of pain resulting from external injuries. Rather it is the optimal remedy for deep-seated, internal diseases. In Sanguinaria, the face of the patient always stays red. The patient develops headache on improper eating and on eating spicy, oily food. The stomach feels burning. The discharges are acidic. The patient feels nauseated. The vomiting, being strongly acidic, can corrode the throat. Sanguinaria is significantly effective in the treatment of extremely severe acidity of the stomach, if other symptoms of Sanguinaria are also present. The appetite increases. However, when the disease progresses further, the stomach fails and vomiting sets in. Then though still feeling hungry, the patient does not like to eat. Sanguinaria is also useful in treating the asthma secondary to the hyperacidity of the stomach, besides Nux Vomica. The stomach bloats with gas. The patient may get sudden severe diarrhoea, like Croton, Aloe and Podophylum. Sanguinaria may be of use in the treatment of diarrhoea beginning on the sudden cessation of nasal cold. In Sanguinaria, the menstrual bleeding and leucorrhoea are very offensive. Sanguinaria is used in the treatment of menopausal symptoms as well as premenstrual nausea and severe abdominal pain. During coughing , the patient feels a hissing sound in the throat that wakes him up. The patient feels better on sitting up. This cough is related to the stomach. The symptoms of Sanguinaria become worse upon sleeping, resting and after eating fruit. The person feels better on movement and sitting up in the bed.
