– BERNARD H,
We include in this cases in which the constipation is due to a narrowing of the intestinal canal, either dependent upon some condition attacking one of the tunics of the intestine itself, or in consequence of extra-intestinal tumors.
The medicines will vary according to the nature and seat of the obstruction. There is no doubt that the resources of the homoeopathic therapeutics are very limited in this class. Nevertheless Platina, Colocynth., Nux vom., Opium, and Sulphur, have been of some service.
