Calcarea phosphorica children
are rather tall, thin, small people; children who are not satisfied, who
weep all the time and have especially - this is not mentioned in the
Repertory - growing pains at night, "growing pains" (p. 1 o 75). Calcarea phosphorica should be
added here. Guaiacum is a very important remedy for growing pains. Guaiacum has a very
strong longing for apples and the growing pains are ameliorated by cold.
Another remedy is Phosphoricum acidum, children who grow too fast, who are very thirsty and like juicy things very much.
Calcarea phosphorica children sigh constantly, they do not feel very well - "sighing" (p. 8O).
Calcarea phosphorica prefers "smoked meat" (p. 485).
