Lumbago :

-JAHR Georg Heinrich Gottlieb

Lumbago

 DOSE. - As Aconitum.
 Nux vomica
 If the back feels fatigued or bruised, or if there be constipation, or symptoms of indigestion.

Accessory treatment:
 See under Indigestion and Rheumatism. - A warm bath at 96 degrees should be taken every other morning, flannel worn next to the skin and round the loins, and friction with the flesh-glove applied over the part. The painful parts may be also rubbed with hartshorn and oil (one ounce of spirits of hartshorn to two of olive oil), or with Aconite Opodeldoc or a mixture of five drops of strong tincture of Aconite [poison] in a tablespoonful of brandy. Rhus Opodeldoc may be used when Rhus is being taken internally. The diet should be nutritious and generous, but easily digestible: anything that will derange the stomach, together with cold, night, or damp air should be avoided.
