Main symptoms
- Given full play, Aurum develops in the organism, by attacking the blood, glands, and bone, conditions bearing striking resemblance to mercurial and syphilitic infections; and it is just for such deteriorations of the bodily fluids and alterations in the tissues, that Aurum assumes great importance as a remedy.
- Hopeless, despondent, and great desire to commit suicide.
- Every opportunity is sought for self-destruction.
- Exostosis, caries, nightly bone-pains, especially cranial, nasal, and palatine.
