Both Abies
Canadensis and A. niger
present marked indications of disordered digestion ; the provings of
both are very incomplete, but so far as we are able to discriminate
between them, A. Canadensis is more
suitable for a gnawing or burning in the stomach. A hungry, faint, weak
feeling with craving for indigestible or unsuitable articles of food.
Distention of the epigastrium. The liver is sore and feels hard, and there
is pain beneath the right scapula. Particularly useful for women with
uterine displacement, associated with a faint sinking sensation in the
pelvis, and the indigestion above noted.
Abies nigra.
Indigestion with a sensation of
a hardboiled egg in the stomach. Very gloomy and low-spirited. Head dull
and heavy. Face hot. Loss of appetite in the morning. Constipation. Sharp
pain in the cardiac region. Pains in the back and limbs. Alternations of
heat and coldness.
