Calc Carb
Very popular remedy for constipation. The constipation does not bother the person and causes no discomfort. Stool is large and hard and can be pale in colour. Person is usually easy-going but can be stubborn.
Lycopodium
Tummy bloated and rumbling with gas. Lots of flatulence and feels better for passing wind. Stools hard, knotty. Can be worriers and feel they’re not good enough even though they are very capable.
Nat Mur
Straining to pass stool but nothing happens. When stool does come, they feel there’s still more to go. Stools can be small and crumbling. Tendency to be reserved people who bottle things up emotionally.
Nat Mur can also be taken as a cell salt. Cell salts are very low potency remedies which can be repeated often. Please see my blog on Cell Salts here on the website.
Nux Vomica
Constant desire to pass stool but very little or nothing passes. Feels there’s still more to go. Can alternate with diarrhoea. Stools are hard and large. May have over-indulged at a party etc. Irritable and hard to please.
Silica
Stool is very difficult to pass. Grunts and strains to get it out. Stool can come partially out but then recedes back in. Can burn afterwards. Can be delicate people but also very determined within themselves.
Silica can also be taken as a cell salt. Cell salts are very low potency remedies which can be repeated often. Please see my blog on Cell Salts here on the website.
