rubric explanation please

Post by Rochelle »

Can anyone help with an explanation of this rubric?

Murphy - Hips
blow, as from childbirth, during (1)
2 cimic

I have a patient who with her last birth got pubic symphysis (sp?) and
wondered if this would fit?

Regards
Rochelle

Hi Rochelle
Been meaning to reply for days but just didn't have the space!

This rubric in Synthesis, is under:
EXTREMETIES - PAIN - HIP, delivery, during - Cimic2 and AFTER - Hypericum3

However, unless she has pain in her hips it may not be the one.

Separation of the Symphisis pubis can occur when the ligaments stretch and/or
then tear during the delivery. In the texts, it is described that the woman
feels acute pain on turning or walking; the legs tend to roatate externally
giving her a waddling gait. On palpation, the area is likely to be tender and
swollen.

The usual treatment is bedrest and the use of a tight pelvic binder to
immobilize the joint - this relieves the pain and allows for healing

You may find some rubrics entering the word , other wise, see it as a
ligament problem with any of the symptoms included

Some remedies for consideration for ligaments include (from Hershoff, p.258):
3 Bryonia, Calc-fl, Rhus-t
2 Caust, cham, cimic
1 colchicum, guaiac,m kali-c, lyco, phyto, puls, rhod, seipa (weak ligaments),
sil.

also

Weak joints due to ligamentous laxity: (Hershoff, p.260)
3 Rhus-t., Sepia
2 Aconite, sil
1 acte-spic, bry., cal-c., calc-fl., caust., Kali-c., led., lyco., nat-m.,
puls., ruta., sulph., thuja

regards

Robyn

Daer Robyn,

Thanks for your comprehensive answer which I will print out and keep. I had
one patient that had it a couple of months before delivery. I send them all
to my osteopath who knows what she is doing and gives exercises that are
safe to do.

Regards,
Rochelle
