after urination?

Nux vomica & Pulsatilla
Spasm
Nux vomica
 Constant urging and full sensation, but only small, unsatisfying
amounts are passed, as if interfered w/ by spasm
 Pain in urethra and/or bladder, before or during urination .
 Better: Warmth or warm bathing. Urination better standing.

 Irritable, snappy, demanding

“af ter just a drop has collected”. Pain is irregular. Urination
flows in spurts as if interrupted by spasm. Sharp pain af ter
urination.

Time For A Case
It’s so painful, my bladder never completely empties. I
feel anxious when I sit on the toilet, because I know the
pain will be worse during urination. This is pretty
embarrassing…I need to get into a warm bath or shower to
help the urine flow. The warmth seems to relax my
muscles. Nux vom
Another Case
No capacity to hold back
Involuntary dribbling
from coughing,
sneezing, laughing,
surprise
Sudden Urges
Pulsatilla
Circumstances surrounding cystitis also
lead us to consider specific remedies.
Aconite: Symptoms develop suddenly after exposure to
cold and windy weather or fright.
Arnica: After forceps or difficult delivery
Borax: Cystitis with yeast overgrowth in small children.
(Mom may have had yeast overgrowth at time of delivery.)
Candida albicans: Urinary candidiasis (yeast) often
associated with antibiotic treatment, old age, pregnancy
and the use of urinary catheters. (May be asymptomatic.)
Staphysagria: Cystitis develops after mechanical injury
from sports or medical procedure. Also a remedy for
honey-moon cystitis.
Sometimes it can help to alternate a well
indicated remedy with histaminum.
A tip from British homeopath, Hillary Dorrian:
“In cases of unbearable burning in the bladder and
urging, yet unable to pass but a few drops of urine,
consider alternating a well indicated remedy like
Cantharis…with Histaminum, when the well indicated
remedy doesn’t work on it’s own.”
