Remedy profile

Allium sat. is most appropriate for people who are oversensitive and need company. Although subject to many fears, they have a particular fear of being poisoned. They generally enjoy a rich, gourmet diet, especially one that includes meat, but are prone to indigestion and catarrh problems.

The remedy is primarily associated with indigestion caused by a rich diet or by dietary change. The digestive process is accompanied by pressure in the upper abdomen, foulsmelling gas, and colicky pains around the navel. Dull pains in the bowels and either constipation or diarrhea may be present. Allium sat. is also used to treat tearing pains in the hip area and abdomen.

Symptoms better: For sitting bent over.

Symptoms worse: In the evening; at night; for walking; for pressure on the affected area.
