pulse that is fully inflated, beating under all the three fingers-index, middle and ring, some-what hollow, filled with gas, with thick walls and not easily comprehensible. This pulse is a clear picture of the famous Homeopathic nosode - Medorrhinum. Medorrhinum has a much greater coverage in the yata-kaph (VK) complaints which produce diseases like asthma, tumours, hysteria, rheumatism, arthritis and the rest of the kind. When vata-kaph complaints become chronic, they aggravate from time to time, essentially near about the new-and full moon days. No other medicine in Homeopathy has the power to curb this periodical, never-ending aggravation except Medorrhinum."1
“There is another kind of pulse frequently met with in practice. It is soft, almost like butter to touch, slow, easily compressible, languid and listless with little or no tension. The pulse appears to be solid with soft lymph flowing through the pipe. Now here is a picture of Aurum Metallicum. In asthma if the patient shows this kind of pulse, a dose of Aurum Met 200 once in 15 days usually shows excellent result."
“In a variety of cases this kind of pulse is exhibited, say in asthma, tuberculosis, rheumatism, arthritis, leucoderma, chronic ulcers, skin disease, ozena and the like.”'3
