{"id":13587,"remedy_name":"Bufo (HMT)","remedy_type":"Remedy","alternative_names":[""],"miasm":"Tubercular Miasm","temperament":"Neutral","aggravation_time":"Neutral\/Anytime","keynote_indications":"Bufo is prepared from the secretions  of toad neck glands.  Its main\nfunction is on the mental faculties and the mind .  Its patients suffer\nfrom a loss of memory .  The mind is cloudy and there is a feeling of\nsevere mental fatigue.  Bufo is the best remedy for neurosis.\nNeurosis, the feeling of numbness, and muscular convulsions  are\nbenefited with Bufo.  The small mu scles exhibit paralytic condition.\nTwitching of the eye or some othe r parts of the body is typical of\nBufo.\n\nIn Bufo, sores tend to develop on the skin .  Many homoeopathic\nexperts use it in the treatment of se xual diseases but rarely use it for\nthe treatment of skin diseases and vi olent muscle cramps.  Bufo is the\nideal treatment for a young man who becomes involved in sexual\nmisconduct.  It prevents one from self-abuse and its bad\nconsequences.  Some young men, w ho have wronged themselves and\ncontracted epilepsy, will significantly benef it from Bufo.  Such an\nepileptic should first be treated with Bufo. In case it fails, other\nremedies should be sought.\n\nIn Bufo, also like Sarsaparilla, premature ageing is found.  This is\nalso a symptom of Baryta Carb.  In  Bufo, the premature ageing is not\nin the physical form of skin tightness  and wrinkles but it relates to the\nmental functions.  The patient does not become crazy but simply looks\nnaive.  Bufo should also be used for a sixty-year old mature person\nbehaving like a teenager.  If such a person is not treated on time, he\nwill become insane.  He becomes incapable of communicating with\nothers and making people understand what he means to say.\n\nIn Bufo, there are contradictions.  The patient likes to be alone and\naway from others, but at the same time feels frightened when alone.\nThis makes him angry, and he shows his anger by way of biting\nthings.  He expresses his helplessne ss but does not harm others.  He\nlaughs, cries and jumps around like a child.  The conduct of a Bufo\npatient is of innocence and childishn ess.  Occasionally, this state may\nprogress to insanity.  Bufo works profoundly and continuously in this\ncondition for a very long period.\n\nIn Bufo, there is tendency towards partial paralysis.  As a result of\nparalysis of various organs, the overlying skin becomes numb.\n\nIn Bufo, violent muscle cramps  are common.  Before epileptic\nseizure, the mouth opens wide due  to muscular spasm.  Blood pours\nout of the mouth and the tongue or lips get caught between the teeth,\ncausing severe discomfort.  Along with this comes headache, the\npupils of the eye get dilated and fixed.  The patient cannot tolerate\nlight.  Sores and ulcers develop on the skin.  The eye becomes\ncongested with blood. Ulcers form on the cornea of eye. Blisters also\nform on the eye and various parts of the body in the form of clusters.\nAntimonium Crude and Antimonium Ta rt are also described to be\nuseful in the treatment of such blisters.  Other symptoms also being\npresent, Bufo is useful in the treatment of all skin conditions.  As in\nAmbra Grisea, the Bufo patient hate s music.  The patient, gradually\ntends to stutter and stammer, making it difficult to understand him,\nand this upsets him.  Use of Bufo is ideal to treat a patient who\nsuddenly becomes drawn and mute.  His eyes are bewildered and\ncompletely indifferent to his surroun dings, even if he does not exhibit\nthe complete picture of epilepsy.  This condition is only temporary.\nWhen the patient regains consciousness, he has no knowledge of what\nhad happened to him.\n\nBeing also related to sexual im potence, some Bufo patients may\ndevelop epileptic fits during sexual intercourse .  The Bufo women\npatients either have their period befo re time or their periods cease all\ntogether.  There is burning sensation and cramps in the uterus with the\nformation of blisters inside, emitting foul leucorrheol discharge\nmixed with pus or blood, resemb ling offensive gangrene-like\ndischarge.  Bufo proves to be very effective in the treatment of this\ncondition.\n\nBufo is also very useful in the treatment of breast cancer.  It does not\ncure the cancer but does offer re lief from suffering and works as\nadjuvant for other remedies.\n\nThe cough of a Bufo patient is very bothersome.  The blood mixes\nwith sputum along with a signi ficant burning sensation.  Bufo\nsicknesses come on rapidly and spread fast, leading the patient\ntowards his end.  Its symptoms a ggravate in a warm room and on\n\nwaking up from sleep while taking a bath and soaking the feet in\nwarm water offers relief.\n\nAdjuvants: Baryta Carb\nAntidotes: Lachesis, Senega\nPotency: 30 to 200 or higher","modalities":"","symptoms_by_system":[],"schema_version":"1.0","api_provider":"Allahshafi"}
