8. Man of 67 has suffered from prostatic hypertrophy; catheterization has frequently to be resorted to. Lately involuntary evacuation of thin stool with every urination. Aloe D. 3 cured completely in a week. (Dr. Schiersen.).
9. A lady of 34 has had diarrhoea for six months forcing her out of bed every morning between 5 and 6, preceded by crampy abdominal pains. No trouble during the day. Eating does not influence. Has lost 10 pounds. Podophyllum D. 4 did not help. Colocynthis D. 4 stopped the diarrhoea for three months. Then eating a cold apple caused again four to five daily evacuations with much borborygmi and colicky pains. Aloe D. 3 cured promptly (Dr. Ferger in Hippokrates 1933-3.).
10, Dr. Smith of Chicago cured a diarrhoea of twelve moths standing, which was preceded by borborygmi and accompanied by passing much flatus. Aloe D. 3 cured in two weeks. (Dr. Goullon.).
11. A boy of 6, rachitic, but very bright (can read fluently though he has not yet attended school), had involuntary evacuations. Aloe D. 3 cured immediately. (Dr. Quilisch.).
Aloe is especially indicated in colitis with painful muco-watery stools accompanied by weakened sphincters; also in gall bladder troubles with pressure in its region; colicky flatulence with diarrhoea.
