Lecture XVIII — Spigelia anthelmintica, Curare and the Juglandaceae
Juglans regia, or the walnut, is useful for menses which come on too soon, and are composed of nothing but black coagula. All the members of the order cause cutaneous eruptions. The most important here is Juglans cinerea, sometimes called Juglans cathartica. Juglans cinerea is one of our best remedies in occipital headache. The pains are of a sharp, shooting character; when this symptom is present you may use the remedy in diseases of the brain or spinal cord.
Juglans cinerea also causes jaundice, just like Nux vomica, with stitching pains about the liver, and pain under the right scapula (Chelidonium and Bryonia); the patient wakes at three o'clock in the morning and cannot go to sleep; these symptoms are often associated with the occipital headache just described. The stools are bilious, or yellowish green, burning the anus, and associated with tenesmus. In dropsy of the chest, Juglans cinerea is useful when there are red spots on the skin, looking very much like flea-bites.
