- Ferrum Phos 331 Ferrum Phos is a compound of phosphor us and iron and is a natural component of the red blood cells.
- A de ficiency of Ferrum Phos is also considered as a deficiency of iron in the blood.
- Ferrum Phos is the best remedy for iron deficiency anaemia .
- Open air causes discomfort to the patient of Ferrum Phos, thus the patient has a cold constitution.
- Due to the presen ce of phosphorus, some symptoms resemble those of this element.
- The patient does not have any specific fear but is usually somewhat rest less, disgusted and in a state of mental confusion.
- There is a lot of weakness as well.
- Ferrum Phos given in homoeopathic potencyStrength level of a remedyThe dilution and succussion scale of a remedy (e.g., 6C, 30C, 200C, 1M), indicating its energetic concentration. works wonders in correcting a lack of blood and associated weakness.
- The patient catches a cold when exposed to the cold weather.
- His face is flushed and feverish.
- There is distaste for meat and milk.
- The patient likes to eat those things that may enhance the appetite.
- Such a patient usually gets sour eructations .
- PilesHemorrhoids or swollen rectal veinsSwollen, inflamed blood vessels around the anus or lower rectum, causing pain, itching, or bleeding. develop at the anal margin and the stools are mixed with thin blood, there may be dysenteryIntestinal infection with severe bloody diarrheaInfection of the intestines resulting in severe diarrhea with the presence of blood and mucus in the feces..
- If there is coughing, it causes stress and incontinence of the urine in women, which will dribble invol untarily.
- The phosphorus compounds are useful in patients with a thin , dilute blood who have the tendency to bleed.
- For Haemophiliac patients, there are three useful remedies: Phosphorus, Acid Phos and Ferrum Phos.
- Phosphorus in homoeopathic potencie s has the capability to thicken blood (haemoconcentration).
- If the blood becomes too thick, it can be dangerous and cause heart attack.
- It is very important that phosphorus should not be blindly c ontinued for a long time.
- Patients who take Phosphorus, Acid Phos and Ferrum P hos must get their blood tested every two to three months.
- The normal coagulability (thickness) of blood prevents spontaneous blee ding.
- The thickness is however acceptable only to a limit.
- Once it becomes too thick, then the Phosphorus should be stopped to let the blood become thin and flow better.
- If the blood becomes too thin, this remedy should be restarted.
- In the patients of Ferrum Phos, muscles on the back can get strained easily and result in permanent discomfort on lifting even a light Ferrum Phos 332 weight.
- Millefolium has a similar tendency.
- Both are good to combat bleeding tendencies.
- The anaemic patient has a tendency to get angry easily.
- He starts sweating and the whole body trembles.
- His anger is directed towards himself.
- He becomes emotional very easily.
- Sometimes he is happy and at other times he starts talking nonsense.
- This symptom of unstable temper is due to the combination of phosphorus and iron.
- The patient of Ferrum Phos likes to remain alone and does not want to face other people.
- He cannot tolerate noise.
- Sometimes he yells out but th is not his normal temperament.
- Such patients usually talk less and like to remain aloof.
- Cold air relieves the headache.
- The headache is more severe while going up the stairs, and sometimes th e patient experiences temporary loss of vision due to the lack of blood (anaemia).
- When the patient tries to sit up suddenly or when he is climbing the stairs, the headache becomes worse due to lack of fl ow of blood to the brain.
- The headache is felt above the eyes.
- The nape of the neck and the temples ache as well.
- There is splitting head ache affecting half of the head.
- The eyesight may be lost temporarily.
- This symptom is also found in the remedies associated with excessive blood accumulation such as Gelsemium.
- In Gelsemium it is not due to the lack of blood but due to the localised increase of blood pressure (congestion).
- Similarly, it can happen in the case of Belladonna.
- But in Ferrum Phos, it is due to a deficiency of blood, and not enough blood reaching the he ad.
- This is similar to the remedies causing vascular congestion leading to the loss of vision.
- In Ferrum Phos, there is catarrhInflammation of mucous membranes with dischargeExcessive buildup of mucus in the nose or throat, associated with inflammation of the mucous membrane. of the Eustachian tubes.
- (These are the tubes that lead from inside the throat towards the ears).
- The catarrhalRelating to membrane inflammation and mucusRelating to catarrh, which is inflammation of mucous membranes with increased watery discharge. secretions are mixed with blood, which is due to the bleeding tendency in the Ferrum Phos patie nts.
- The children usually get nosebleeds.
- If the patient of Ferrum Phos has bleeding from the lining of the mouth and the gums, it is red in colour as in Millefolium.
- The tonsils swell and there is irritation in the throat due to bleeding, burning and inflammation, causing di fficulty in swallowing.
- These are the symptoms of Ferrum Phos .
- These symptoms are common in many other remedies, so the diagnosis for Ferrum Phos cannot be based on these findings alone.
- The patient has to be observed and studied overall.
- Ferrum Phos 333 Lack of blood or anaemia is a definite symptom.
- During pregnancy, Ferrum Phos should be administered to women as a tonic .
- For this purpose, the combination of Ferrum Phos, Calcarea Phos, and Kali Phos is very useful.
- In the fi rst few months of pregnancy, the tendency of abortion is stopped and in the last two to three months of pregnancy, it helps in the developm ent of the baby.
- These, however, should not be used continuously but should be resumed after an interval.
- This regimen does not cause any harm, rather it is useful.
- In Ferrum Phos, the appetite sometimes decreases a lot and at other times increases to the extent that it knows no bounds.
- These two extremes are the symptoms of Ferrum Phos.
- The pregnant women like to take harmful things, and dislike those th at are useful for their body.
- There is a dislike for meat.
- In this situation, Ferrum Phos is useful.
- After food intake, ther e is retching or naus ea.
- The nausea of pregnancy is usually severe and obs tinate.
- Ferrum Phos alone will help but rarely.
- There are ma ny other remedies for nausea, particularly related to pregnanc y of which one should have full knowledge.
- I have tried a new remedy called Pipli, which is prepared from the leaves and the burnt ashes of the tree called Pipal.
- This has proved very effective in the stubborn type of nausea of pregnancy.
- In my view, the nausea and vomiting of pregnancy is sometimes caused by allergy.
- Some pregnant women develop an allergy to the baby developing in their wombs.
- Th eir nausea is very severe and prolonged.
- In the USA, it has been found during research that 40% of the women, who abort, do it due to an allergy against their own baby.
- In other words, the body’s defences attack the embryo.
- If it was not due to the three coverings around th e embryo i.e the placenta, the uterine wall and the outer covering of the uterus, the embryos would be aborted.
- The Holy Quran has mentioned this saying: We have placed the embryo in a safe and secure place under the three protective coverings (Chapter 39, Sura Al-Zumar: 7).
- If the defensive mechanism around th e foetus is weaker than the attacking power, the pregnancy would certainly be lost.
- In some institutions, the scientists have discovered ways to balance the internal and the external defe nce systems.
- At present, this treatment is very costly.
- However, a great majority of women who were able to receive this treatment delivered their babies successfully.
- Ferrum Phos 334 I have found Pipli to be very useful in controlling nausea during pregnancy.
- It may also prevent abortion by combating allergy towards the foetus.
- However, this needs further research and experimentation on a wider scale by homoeopaths all over the world.
- I would like Pipli to be tried in different potencies and carefully observed to see what kind of patie nts it works on, and on what kinds of patients it does not.
- I request the homoeopaths that whosoever experiments on this new remedy should inform the Ahmadiyya Muslim Central Homoeopathy Board at: 16 Gressenhall Road, London SW18 5QL UK The symptoms of Ferrum Phos aggravate by touch, jolt and movement.
- The cold applications offer relief.
- Potency: Biochemic 3x to 12x Homoeopathic 30 or Higher
