Fatigue :
-JAHR Georg Heinrich Gottlieb
Bodily fatigue :
Symptoms. -Feeling of general lassitude, weariness, stiffness in the joints, and dull pains in the muscles as if from contusion.
Medicinal treatment
Arnica montana
If from any labour or physical exertion - walking, eyeling, rowing, and the like.
Dose. -Two drops in a dessertspoonful of water every three or four hours - a teaspoonful for a child.
Rhus toxicodendron
If from lifting or carrying great weights or loads.
Dose. -As Arnica.
Accessory treatment
Sponging with tepid water in which a little brandy, vinegar, or tincture of Arnica has been mixed, will be found very refreshing, and the moderate use of a stimulant may likewise be beneficial. The diet should be nourishing - a little beef-tea, tender beef-steak, or chop, in small quantities, but taken frequently. -See Cases of Disease in the Introduction.
Mental fatigue :
Symptoms
Confusion of thought or too great mental activity, headache, drowsiness, sleeplessness, or heavy unrefreshing sleep, inability to collect the thoughts, etc. The bad effects of too much study, thought, and overexertion of the brain, are frequently most difficult of cure.
Medicinal treatment
Phosphoricum acidum
With general debility and great apathy.
Dose. -Two drops in a dessertspoonful of water three times a day, or alternately with Nux Vomica, each twice a day.
Belladonna
Is useful in headaches caused by excessive study.
Dose. -Two drops in a dessertspoonful of water every four or six hours.
Calcarea carbonica
When the least conversation fatigues very much.
Dose. -Two grains night and morning dry on the tongue.
Nux vomica
Is the best remedy in most cases of mental fatigue.
Dose. -Two drops in a dessertspoonful of water three times a day.
Accessory treatment
Perfect rest should be given to the mental powers, and in many cases change of air and scene are needful. The free use of cold water in bathing is also a valuable adjunct, and should always be made use of. -See also under Chronic Indigestion.
