Remedy profile

Viola tri. is best suited to those who feel discontented and capricious, and to children who are prone to disobedience.

Obstinate skin problems are typically treated with Viola tri. These include impetigo, rashes, eczema, rosacea, and pustular eruptions. The typical symptom picture is of intolerable itching and burning, especially at night. The skin does not heal easily, and is prone to thick scabs, which may crack and discharge yellow pus or fluid.

Viola tri. is particularly suited to skin symptoms in conjunction with urinary problems. Typical urinary symptoms may include cloudy, foul-smelling urine (like the urine of a cat), frequent, profuse urination, bedwetting at night, and sharp pains in the urethra.

Symptoms better: None known.

Symptoms worse: For cold air; in winter; for movement.
