A female patient aged 27 years came to me for chronic constipation since parturition. She underwent caesarian section for delivery. After that she developed bleeding per rectum every time after hard stool. The lady was very scared about her disease. She loved to eat spicy and pungent food. She was from an elite family. I prescribed Nux-vomica in single dose at night before going to bed for 6 days. After few days her complaints vanished and stool also all right.

    A male aged 32 years consulted for pain in low back with, numbness in both lower limbs since 5 years. A Synoptic key of Materia Medica by C.M.Boger guided me on this case. The modalities are <winter, motion, other symptoms anxiety about health, sensation of swelling in back, sensation of falling forward, nervousness, ineffectual desire for stool and sleeplessness completed the totality of Nux Vomica. The drug was continued for four months and his complaints disappeared.
