GUAIACUM
Guaiacum officinale
Lignum vitae.
Key Uses:
Origin : Native to South America and the Caribbean Islands.
Background : In the 16th century, native Americans were found to be using lignum vitae for venereal disease and syphilis, and it became popular in Europe until discredited in the 18th century.
Preparation : The resin obtained from the tree is macerated in alcohol.
Remedy Profile : Guaiacum is most appropriate for narrow- minded people who tend to be obstinate, overcritical, and inflexible. This mental rigidity is mirrored by a fixation of the joints. The remedy is most commonly used for great arthritic or rheumatic joint pain, especially in the wrists. Arthritic pain may feel worse for heat, and there may also be a sensation of swelling, tension, and tautness in the muscles, as if they are too short. There is a strong desire to yawn and stretch. In children, the remedy profile may include growing pains.
Symptoms Better : For cold, wet weather; for cold compresses; for apples.
Symptoms Worse : For heat; for wet weather; for touch; for movement; for exertion; for rapid growth.
