What Do Doctors Commonly Recommend Phosphorus For?

Dr. K. S. Gopi recommends Phosphorus for:

Phosphorus 30 is highly effective when cold drinks or cold water give temporary relief from burning in the chest and abdomen, especially in cases of heartburn due to acid reflux. Sour belching after meals is common, with vomiting appearing some time after drinking.

Phosphorus 30 is a leading remedy for extremely dry hair at the roots and is particularly useful when such dryness is accompanied by excessive hair fall.

Phosphorus 200 is often prescribed in cases of disc bulge when a characteristic burning sensation in the spine accompanies back pain, especially pain that worsens when rising from a stooped posture.

Phosphorus 30 is also used in cases of necrosis (death of body tissues), particularly involving bone and mucous membranes.

Phosphorus as per Boericke Materia Medica

Phosphorus profoundly affects metabolism, irritating and degenerating mucous and serous membranes, inflaming the spinal cord and nerves, and causing paralysis. It acts destructively on bones (notably the lower jaw and tibia) and disorganizes the blood, leading to fatty degeneration of tissues, hemorrhages, and hematogenous jaundice.

It is especially suited to tall, slender individuals with narrow chests, thin transparent skin, marked nervous debility, and great sensitivity to light, sound, odors, touch, and weather changes. Sudden prostration, fainting, sweats, shooting pains, and hemorrhagic tendencies are keynote features.
