CHILDRENS TYPES



I should think when I was in general practice I cleared more acute otitis in small children with Chamomilla than with any other single drug. And you can clear it up quite well without any puncture of the drum or anything of that sort; the whole thing simply subsides. But you have got to have the Chamomilla make-up as well as the otitis, otherwise Chamomilla does not work. In other words, their nervous system has to be all on the fret, and they have got to be irritable and touchy, otherwise Chamomilla does not do it.

In other words, you get the Pulsatilla from the same cause, exposure to cold, again with otitis media, and one- sided flush; but if is a Pulsatilla child, not a Chamomilla one, and Chamomilla wont do it any good. I think they are the two commonest drugs at least they were in the practice I was doing.

Again in CINA you can practically duplicate the symptoms on the notes, and yet it is an entirely different one is dealing with.
