Pelvic Inflammation

Sometimes we do not get the symptoms of Apis in the beginning of the case as they come on the surface at last when the case becomes almost incurable. There is no harm in trying Apis only on subjective symptoms. Nat-Mur is the best complementary to Apis, and it should be used in anaemic condition after Apis.

Taking The Temperature

A comparison of the various readings enables those responsible for the selection of tube for the various types of thermometer to sort the short lengths into groups composed of tubes of very nearly the same volumetric capacity, and by doing this it is practicable to work out, within a little, the size of the bulb required for a particular range or a particular purpose.

Hahnemanns Contribution To Medical Science

Hahnemann laid utmost emphasis on the “safety first” principle in therapeutics and devised a unique method of reducing the dosage of even most lethal poisons to such infinitesimal limits that if applied according to the natures law discover and announced by him, only their curative properties of drugs once discovered hold good for all time to come as the experiments to determine them are made on the basis of certain fixed and unchanging laws of nature.
