In case the pain is due to suspected tumors or sores in the uterus, the following remedies will help:

 

A vaginal douche with water in which Neem leaves have been boiled is effec­tive. Take 50 grams of Neem leaves, add six grams of Kamala Dye (Kamila) and three grams of Borax and boil them in 1 litre of water till half of it is left. Alternatively, 50 grams each of Neem leaves, pomegranate and Doddar (Akashbel) should be boiled in 1.2 litres of water till about % litres is left. A cloth pad soaked in this deco

ction should be used for fomentation of the lower abdomen and the pubes.

 

Thirty grams of Bastard Teak (Gule Tesu) and ten grams of rind of Poppy Capsule should be boiled in water and the warm water used for fomentation.

 

The patient suffering from the above disorders should take soft, easily digesti­ble foods and give up condiments and spices as they are likely to aggravate her condition. Constipation should not be allowed to develop and if it does, it should be dealt with a mild laxative. Sex, of course, is strictly forbidden during the period of the disorder.
