Hi habiba

Here's something from Vermeulen -

SIGNS
Comocladia dentata. N.O. Anacardiaceae.
The name Lomocladia' is derived from two Greek words: kóme, hair, and klados,
twig, a reference to the dense open leaves to the top of the branches. The generic
name dentata means `toothed'.
The tree contains a yellowish-white, milky glutinous juice, becoming black by
exposure to air, staining the linen or skin the same colour, and cannot be washed
off. The wood is red, the flowers are bluish brown. The tree is indigenous to Cuba
and South America and is considered so poisonous by the local people that they do
not dare to thin it out or sleep under it. Especially sanguine or fat people are
believed to be affected by it. The fruit is edible and, according to local insight, has
an immunising effect. Contact with the bark causes a serious dermatitis, and even
burns. Even the pollen, transferred by flies, causes allergic reactions, particularly in
the eyes, which become swollen and itch and burn, with the formation of blisters
around the eyes.
Proved by Hyde [1876], and by Houard [on 5 persons].

COMPARE
Rhus toxicodendron. Mercurius. Sulphur. Croton tiglium. Pulsatilla.

REGION
Skin. Eyes. Nose.

LEADING SYMPTOMS
M Self-complacent thoughts and contempt of others.
"Combative, vindictive disposition for a whole week, and contempt for
opponents." [Allen]
G Comocladia shows its botanical affinity with the Rhus family by the virulence of
its effects on the skin, and in its rheumatic pains.
But it lacks the restlessness of Rhus-t.
G > Open air.
Motion.
open air [1]; warm things [2]; > external warmth [2].
THROAT: Sensation as if enlarged [1].
STOMACH: Stitching pain after lying down on left side [1/1].
COUGH: Cough on entering warm room from open air [2].
CHEST: Pain in left mamma extending to scapula [1/1].
EXTREMITIES: Coldness of feet & hot hands [1; Nux-m., Sep.]. Itching of
upper limbs > motion [1]. Numbness of upper limbs on holding anything in hands
[1]. Sore pain in joints > motion [3; Rhus-t., Tub.].
SKIN: Itching, changing place, > rubbing or scratching [2]; > open air and motion;
[1].

(Guao)


Com. Comocladia dentata. Guao. N. O. Anacardiacae. Cuba. Tincture of leaves and bark. Historical dose: Tincture and all potencies, first to thirtieth potency.

Comocladia shows its affinity with the Rhus family by the virulence of its effects on the skin, the slightest contact and, at times, even walking in the neighborhood of the growing tree, being sufficient to cause violent inflammation.

The trunk and branches of the tree contain a milky fluid, turning black on exposure to sunlight, discoloring the skin, linen, etc.

Compare with Anacardium. The plant causes tormenting itching, swelling, redness, vesication, ulceration.

Saturn.

Comocladia is an irritant poison like Rhus-t, causing a malignant skin inflammation with enormous swelling or edema of left leg and foot. Important eye and skin symptoms. Affections of antrum. Throbbing pains, worse by heat. Pain in joints and ankles. Sacro-iliac and abdominal pain.

Burning, itching of the eyes, which feel too large. Right eye very painful, feels large, protruded than left. Ciliary neuralgia. Burning itching of the nose with violent sneezing. Pain under the left breast or nipple extending to left scapula, when coughing. Wandering rheumatic pains. Deep ulcers with hard edges. Skin red all over. Recurrent eczema. Leprosy.

Better from open air, motion, scratching. Worse from touch, warmth, rest, night. There are also rheumatic pains and, as with Rhus-t., these and the symptoms in general are better by motion and worse by rest. In contradistinction to Rhus-t., heat worse and open air better most of the symptoms. Most symptoms are worse at night as with Rhus-t. Pressure better.

Antrum of Highmore disorders. Breasts disorders. Ears disorders. Eczema. Erysipelas. Eyes disorders. Herpes zoster. Leprosy. Neuralgia. Skin, malignant inflammations. Toothache. Ulcers.

Severe flatulent pain in abdomen preceding and during a diarrhea stool, followed by a feeling of weakness and perspiration on face and neck.

On moving head, sense of fullness, rigidity and lameness of muscles of neck. Rheumatic pains and stitches in back, stitches leave a burning.

Sharp pain in left breast, about one inch above nipple, and leaves a burning sensation. Sloughing ulcer on right breast.

Pain from right side of chest down arm to fingers. Cough with pain under left breast, going through to left scapula.

Heat and fullness in right ear. Left ear all cracked, and desquamating a substance like powered starch.

Glaucoma, sense of fullness, eyeball feels too large. Motion of the eyes aggravates. Ciliary neuralgia with eyes feeling large and protruded, especially right eye. Eyes are worse near warm stove, feels as if pressed outward. Sees only glimmer of light with left eye.

Swollen with eyes projecting.

Sharp pains through right shoulder to scapula. Painful burning on arms. Crampy sensation in muscles of right upper arm. Drawing cramping in fingers. Vesicular eruption on arms and hands. Herpes on legs.

Spasmodic dry cough at night. Cannot draw a long breath on account of sharp pain at center of thorax on left side. Soreness in left lung.

Intense itching on lower part of penis, also on inner side of prepuce. Continued tingling, itching of scrotum during night.

Sensation as if a tooth were being drawn out of its socket. Pains in teeth better by pressure. When toothache stops, head feels large. Gums of lower jaw inflamed. Tongue coated dirty yellow. Mouth dry.

Eczema of the trunk and limbs, also pustular type. Itches, red and pimples. Redness all over like a scarlatina. Erysipelas. Deep ulcers with hard edges. Leprosy. Red stripes on skin. (Euphor.)

Dreamy, refreshing sleep with pleasant dreams, almost clairvoyant.

The eye symptoms are peculiar: pain in right eye, sensation as if it were larger than left and more protruded. A cough with pain under left breast going through to left scapula, has several times been cured with Comoc.

Hale quotes from Navarro cures of ulcers: "Sloughing ulcer of right breast. An indolent ulcer, lower third right leg, deep, discharging bloody fetid pus. Inflammation of left leg and foot with enormous swelling and fever."

(1) Rhus-t., Anac., Euphor.
