This is general information about a homeopathic remedy, not a prescription or dosing advice. In homeopathy the correct remedy and potency are chosen for the whole individual symptom picture by a qualified homeopath — the same remedy is not right for everyone. Do not self-medicate, and consult a qualified homeopathic doctor (and your physician for serious or persistent conditions) before taking any remedy.
What Secale Cornutum is used for
- Poor circulation to the fingers and toes
- Burning sensations yet parts feel cold to touch
- Numb, cold, shrivelled extremities
- Passive dark oozing bleeding
- A wish for cold and to uncover, despite the coldness
Characteristic symptom picture
Homeopaths look for these guiding features when considering Secale Cornutum.
- Coldness of the skin with an internal burning
- Wants to be uncovered though the body is cold
- Dark, thin, passive bleeding
- Withered, numb, poorly-circulated extremities
- Worse from heat and covering
Potency
Secale Cornutum is available in several potencies such as 6C, 30C and 200C, and in lower or biochemic and mother-tincture forms in some cases. The right potency and repetition depend entirely on the individual case and are decided by a qualified homeopath - this page gives no dosing instructions.
The Secale Cornutum picture and modalities
Secale Cornutum pictures failing peripheral circulation with a paradox at its heart - the parts feel cold and look withered and numb, yet the person feels burning and wants to be uncovered and away from heat. Bleeding, where it features, tends to be dark, thin, and passively oozing. The constitution is often thin and run-down. A homeopath weighs this cold-yet-burning, uncover-craving pattern within the whole picture.
Before you consider Secale
This is background information, not advice to self-treat. Poor circulation with cold, numb, or discoloured extremities, and any abnormal bleeding, need prompt medical assessment, since the causes can be serious. In homeopathy the correct remedy and potency are chosen for the whole individual by a qualified practitioner. Homeopathy should complement, not replace, conventional care.
