Magnesium carbonicum

An inorganic carbonate, magnesium carbonate is a white, weakly alkaline earth compound long used as an antacid and absorbent; its neutralising action on gastric acid and tendency to form soaps with fatty acids help explain the keynote acidity with sourness of eructations, vomit, stools and perspiration that runs throughout the pathogenesis [Hughes], [Clarke]. Hahnemann introduced Magnesia carbonica from provings and clinical observations, placing it among the “alkaline earths” with marked neuralgic and colicky tendencies, disordered milk digestion in infants, and periodic left-sided headaches and toothaches [Hahnemann], [Allen], [Hering]. The remedy is prepared by trituration of the pure substance to the 3C and beyond, or by solution and subsequent potentisation; toxicology is minimal, the picture being chiefly proving and clinical [Hughes], [Clarke], [Boericke].

Primary provings under Hahnemann with subsequent confirmations by Hering and Allen recorded sour diarrhoea (teething infants), milk aggravation, cramplike abdominal and neuralgic pains, left-sided facial neuralgia/toothache, headaches periodic and worse at night, oversensitivity to noise, weakness and chilliness, and unrefreshing sleep with 2–3 a.m. wakings [Hahnemann], [Allen], [Hering], [Clarke], [Kent]. [Proving]/[Clinical]

Magnesia carbonica is the sour, chilly, night-waking Magnesium: a picture of acid dyspepsia and neuralgic–crampy pains set on a sensitive, “mother-needing” temperament. The signature triad is unmistakable: (1) milk intolerance—vomit of curdled milk, stools green, sour, frothy, 2–3 a.m. colic; (2) left-sided facial/tooth neuralgia, worse cold air and night, better heat and pressure; (3) sourness pervading breath, sweat, stools and eruptions that excori­ate [Hering], [Allen], [Clarke], [Kent], [Boericke]. Around this, the constitutional weave shows chilliness, oversensitivity to noise, a peevish yet gentle disposition, and the Magnesium-family “forsaken child” undertone—wanting warmth, pressure, and the reliable presence of care (Mind ↔ Modalities) [Tyler], [Bailey], [Scholten].

Physiologically the remedy reads like an alkali imperfectly buffering the stomach: fermentation, gas, and sour overflow irritate mucosae; reflexes ripple into trigeminal arcs and small muscles—hence cramps in calves/hands and tooth-facial neuralgia. The peripheral circulation stays lax and chilly; damp/cold air precipitates nerve pain, while heat relaxes spasm—precisely as in the abdomen where bending double and firm pressure quell colic. The time axis intensifies after midnight: infants cry and draw up legs at 2–3 a.m.; adults pace with left face-ache and sour heartburn. Female physiology resonates: before menses the whole neuralgic–colic complex heightens; during lactation mother and child declare the milk problem together—mother with heartburn and flatulence; baby with sour green stools and milk crust (Female ↔ Stomach/Rectum/Skin).

Differentially, Mag-c. stands between Aethusa (more acute, sudden collapse from milk) and Calc-carb. (constitutional delayed ossification, sweat, fatness) for infant milk disorders; among neuralgics it diverges from Spigelia by seeking pressure/heat rather than recoiling from touch, and from Mag-phos. by its sourness, left bias, and milk aetiology [Kent], [Boger], [Boericke]. The direction of cure is concrete: nights become quiet, stools lose their sour excoriation, milk can be reduced or later tolerated, neuralgia recedes in cold air, and the peevish child softens without constant rocking. When the case presents the four anchors—sourness, milk intolerance, 2–3 a.m. aggravation, heat/pressure relief—Magnesia carbonica carries depth and breadth worthy of a polycrest.

• Gastro-intestinal mucosa & digestion—cardinal acidity, sour eructations and stools; milk disagrees (infants pass green, sour, frothy stools; adults get heartburn and flatulence) (see Stomach/Abdomen/Rectum) [Hering], [Allen], [Clarke].
• Cranial & trigeminal nerves—left-sided neuralgia and toothache, worse at night and cold air, better warmth and pressure (see Head/Teeth/Face) [Kent], [Hering], [Boericke].
• Female pelvic organs—cramps and dragging before and during menses, with sour leucorrhoea and milk-aggravated colics in nursing mothers (see Female/Abdomen) [Clarke], [Kent].
• Hepato-portal—flatulent distension, intolerance of fats and milk; sluggish bile flow with pale, sour stools (see Abdomen/Rectum) [Hughes], [Clarke].
• Nervous system (neuralgic–crampy type)—cramps in calves and small muscles; pains better heat (compare Mag-phos.), yet sourness and milk aggravation point to Mag-c. (see Extremities/Generalities) [Boger], [Boericke].
• Skin of infants & scorbutic states—milk crust, intertrigo, sour perspiration excoriating; tendency to fissures (see Skin) [Hering], [Clarke].
• Sleep–circadian axis—2–3 a.m. wakings with colic or sour diarrhoea; unrefreshing sleep (see Sleep/Generalities) [Allen], [Clarke].
• Urino-genital irritation—acid urine, smarting; children wet the bed when milk is pushed (see Urinary) [Clarke].
• Cardio-vascular tone—palpitations with weakness after meals; anaemic softness (see Heart/Generalities) [Boericke], [Boger].
• Emotional sphere (Magnesium “mother” theme)—forsaken sensitivity, peevishness from pain, craving soothing yet consolation aggravates irritability (Magnesium family signature; see Mind) [Tyler], [Scholten], [Bailey].

There is a quiet, peevish irritability from pain and exhaustion; the patient is easily fretted by talk and noise, prefers silence and solitude, and becomes snappish if consoled—this tallies with the aggravation from conversation and consolation already noted [Kent], [Clarke]. A soft, needy undercurrent betrays the Magnesium family: craving of protection, oversensitivity to slight, and a “forsaken-child” feeling that aggravates evening anxieties (Magnesium signature) [Tyler], [Bailey], [Scholten]. Anxiety concentrates in the abdomen during colic; dread of milk after repeated night attacks leads to anticipatory fear (Mind ↔ Stomach/Abdomen). Children are whiny, cannot be satisfied, want to be held yet push away when touched; they cry before stool and pass sour, green evacuations, becoming momentarily cheerful after (mini-case) [Hering], [Allen]. Mental exertion wearies and deepens cephalic pressure; irritability mounts late evening and after midnight with return of neuralgias. Jealousy and resentment are mild compared with Nux-v., but the patient remembers hurts. Sweet temper returns as pain yields to warmth and pressure (Mind ↔ Modalities). Sleep loss sharpens the edge; by forenoon a gentle, subdued mood replaces the night’s fretfulness [Clarke].

Unrefreshing; wakes about 2–3 a.m. with colic/diarrhoea or toothache, dozes toward morning—linking directly to the modalities (Sleep ↔ Worse night/Better toward morning) [Allen], [Clarke]. Children roll and moan, draw up legs; rocking and warmth settle them. Daytime drowsiness follows loss of sleep, with foggy head.

Anxious, of being deserted or unable to find home (Magnesium theme); of teeth breaking when toothache present (Dreams ↔ Teeth) [Tyler], [Bailey]. Dreams are more vivid after late heavy meals.

Magnesia carbonica is a sour, chilly, neuralgic–colicky constitution with milk intolerance, night aggravation (2–3 a.m.), and amelioration by heat, pressure and bending double. The left-sided bias (face/teeth/head) and cramps in small muscles align it with the Magnesium family, while the pervasive sourness and milk aggravation distinguish it from Mag-phos. (whose cramp-pains are more purely spasmodic and right-sided) [Kent], [Boericke], [Boger], [Hering], [Allen]. Neuralgia ↔ viscera oscillate: when toothache ceases, colic comes, and vice versa; both obey warmth/pressure and rebel at cold air/night. Children exhibit the essence most transparently: sour, green stools, milk crust, sour sweat, colic better warmth/pressure, peevish but soothed by gentle rocking; adults show flatulent dyspepsia with palpitation after meals and left facial neuralgia. Cure proceeds as nights lengthen in rest, milk becomes tolerable (or is judiciously withheld), sourness abates, neuralgia withdraws, and the patient bears cold air without toothache.

Alternating chilliness and heat with sour sweat; fever often slight but tiresome at night with neuralgias. Heat of face with cold limbs during toothache (Fever ↔ Teeth/Generalities) [Hering].

Chilly, takes cold easily; sour-smelling perspiration excoriates; night sweats around head/neck in children (Chill/Heat/Sweat ↔ Skin). Flushes after food resolve with a warm drink.

Headache is semi-lateral (often left), pressing or stitching, with scalp sore to cold air; worse night, worse talking or mental work, and better warmth and quiet (Head ↔ Modalities) [Hering], [Kent]. A periodic habit is frequent—headache the day before menses or in teething women; this relates closely to uterine and dental irritation (Head ↔ Female/Teeth). Vertigo on stooping and on rising in the night is common; the stomach acidity often precedes an attack. Children roll the head on the pillow during abdominal pain and sour sweating. A heavy, congestive forehead in the morning improves after a warm cup and evacuation, confirming the better from warm drinks and stool [Clarke]. Headache alternates with colic or toothache, showing the neuralgic–visceral seesaw of Mag-c. [Allen].

Smarting, lachrymation in cold wind; lids twitch with neuralgic facial pains, commonly left-sided (Eyes ↔ Face) [Hering]. Blurred sight follows night-waking; reading aggravates the frontal weight. Photophobia is mild and functional; it recedes as sleep and digestion improve. Children rub the eyes during colic and sour diarrhoea nights; acid sweat excoriates canthi (Eyes ↔ Skin).

Noisy hypersensitivity; ordinary sounds irritate and provoke headache or peevishness—tallying with Worse for noise (Ears ↔ Mind/Head) [Kent]. Earache with teething may occur; warmth relieves. Buzzing and a hollow feeling after meals suggest gastric sympathy.

Morning coryza with rawness in chilly weather; discharge sour-smelling in some children (Nose ↔ Generalities) [Hering]. Odours of fat food disgust. Sneezing in cold wind provokes face-pain.

Neuralgia (left), drawing or stitching along malar and upper jaw, worse cold air, worse night, better heat and pressure—a keynote that echoes the affinity and modalities (Face ↔ Affinity/Modalities) [Kent], [Hering]. The face may look pale-greenish with colic, or flushed with toothache; lips crack easily in sour children (Face ↔ Skin). Lying on the painful side increases throbbing, yet steady hand-pressure soothes.

Mouth sour on waking; tongue coated white; saliva acid. Aphthae in infants who cannot digest milk; corners of mouth fissure from acidity (Mouth ↔ Food/Skin) [Hering], [Clarke]. Teething is hard—child frets, gums tender, diarrhoea sour follows milk. Bitter taste after fatty food is common.

Toothache at night, worse cold air, cold water, and after meals, better warmth and pressing teeth together or face against warm pillow (Teeth ↔ Modalities) [Hering], [Kent]. Pregnancy and menses bring renewed tooth pains with shooting into ear. Carious lower molars often cited; sweets aggravate less than cold. The whole trigeminal tract seems hyperaesthetic in cold damp.

Throat raw during acid regurgitation; swallowing warm liquids eases. Mucus posteriorly in morning; scraping brings relief. There is no hallmark follicular tonsillitis, but recurrent catarrh with gastric acidity is frequent (Throat ↔ Stomach) [Clarke].

Stitching beneath left breast with palpitation after eating; sighing relieves superficial oppression (Chest ↔ Heart/Stomach) [Boericke]. Short, tickling cough in cold air with facial neuralgia. Laryngeal scratchiness mornings.

Palpitation after meals, with weak, anaemic feeling; worse lying on left side; heart seems to labour with gas in stomach (Heart ↔ Stomach) [Boericke], [Boger]. Pulsations heard in ear at night when neuralgias keep awake. No structural signs emphasised in the classics.

Breath short with abdominal distension; cannot bear tight clothes after eating (Respiration ↔ Abdomen). Cold air constricts and provokes a tickle-cough with face-ache (Respiration ↔ Face) [Hering].

Milk disagrees—vomiting of curdled milk, heartburn, sour eructations, and nausea worse mornings or at night after milk, better hot drinks (Stomach ↔ Modalities/Food and Drink) [Hering], [Allen], [Clarke]. Desire for warm food and drinks; aversion to fat. Empty, sinking feeling at epigastrium around 10–11 a.m., yet eating a little provokes distension. Palpitation after meals betrays vagal irritability (Stomach ↔ Heart). Belching of gas relieves pressure.

Cardinal: cramplike colic with flatulent distension, better warmth, pressure, bending double, worse milk and greens, worse at night, often 2–3 a.m. (Abdomen ↔ Modalities) [Allen], [Hering], [Clarke]. Fermentation noisy; child draws up legs, passes sour flatus. Cutting radiates to groins with chilliness of extremities; warmth of flannel, rocking, and passing flatus help. Hepatic region sensitive after fat; stool pale-sour when bile insufficient (Abdomen ↔ Rectum).

Stools sour, green, frothy, like chopped spinach or scum—especially in teething children; drive the child out of bed at night (Rectum ↔ Worse night/milk) [Hering], [Allen]. In adults, alternating diarrhoea and constipation of hard, knotty stools; anus fissured and sore from acidity. Tenesmus mild; burning after stool. Urgency at 2–3 a.m. is characteristic.

Urine acid, scalding at meatus; frequency increases with sour diarrhoea (Urinary ↔ Rectum) [Clarke]. Enuresis in milk-fed children with colic is frequent; lessens when milk is diluted or withdrawn and the remedy given. Sediment light; odour sourish.

Milk (notably cow’s) disagrees—vomit curdled milk, sour diarrhoea; greens/cabbage, fatty foods and fruit aggravate flatulence and acidity; warm food/drinks soothe (Food ↔ Stomach/Abdomen/Rectum) [Hering], [Clarke], [Hughes]. Craves bread or farinaceous warm foods; aversion to cold drinks.

Sexual desire low when exhausted from nightly pains; emissions after dreams with weakness. Drawing in spermatic cords during abdominal cramps (Male ↔ Abdomen) [Clarke]. No dominant gonorrhoeal sphere.

Before and during menses: cramping colic, left-sided headaches and toothaches, bearing-down; flow may be dark and clotted or scant with sour leucorrhoea between periods (Female ↔ Head/Teeth/Abdomen) [Clarke], [Kent]. Nursing mothers—milk upsets both mother (heartburn) and infant (sour stools). Pruritus vulvae from acidity; worse after greens.

Aching between shoulders after eating; sacral weariness with menses. Cold, damp seats bring lumbar ache, relieved by heat and movement (Back ↔ Modalities) [Clarke].

Cramps in calves, soles and small muscles of hands/feet, especially at night; warmth and rubbing relieve (Extremities ↔ Modalities) [Boericke]. Fingers stiff cold mornings; chilblain tendency in the chilly subject. Restlessness from cramp interrupts sleep.

Sour perspiration and secretions excori­ate; intertrigo in infants; milk crust on scalp; dry eczematous patches in flexures (Skin ↔ Affinity/Generalities) [Hering], [Clarke]. Fissures at angles of mouth/anus from acidity. Itching worse warmth of bed, better gentle rubbing.
