– BERNARD H,

 Boenninghausen in his Manual, mentions Hepar in connection with Alumina, Kali carb., Natrum mur. and Nux vomica for constipation due to inactivity of the intestines. He also gives the following : Difficult expulsion of a small quantity of soft excrement with great efforts and tenesmus. Stool hard and dry.
 In the Chronic Diseases we have : Inaction of the rectum; stools hard, insufficient; swelling of the anus. After great efforts, there is a hard stool, mingled with a yellow liquid. Emission, at times, of prostatic fluid while at stool.
 Ruddock : Obstinate constipation from congestion of the rectum.
 In his article upon the treatment of dyspepsia, M. Chargé gives in connection with Hepar : Stools hard, difficult, slightly colored, or whitish diarrhoea. It is especially in smokers or after the abuse of mercury that we would have the most need for Hepar.
 [Raue gives : Sluggishness and inactivity of the bowels, in consequence of which the abdominal muscles must bear down in order to effect an evacuation, which is hard or not, but insufficient.]
