We present 2 cases of severe postoperative sore throat, hoarseness, aphonia, and dysphagia, after a laryngeal mask insertion, who were treated successfully with the homeopathic remedy Arnica montana. Three doses of Arnica montana 200CH were given to the patients over 36 hours. Although the symptoms were very intense, the remedy was very effective and cleared most of the symptoms in 48 hours.

Sturm-Liouville Theory Christopher J. Adkins Master of Science Graduate Department of Mathematics University of Toronto 2014 A basic introduction into Sturm-Liouville Theory. We mostly deal with the general 2ndorder ODE in self-adjoint form. There are a number of things covered including: basic asymptotics, properties of the spectrum, interlacing of zeros, transformation arguments...

In this lecture we abstract the eigenvalue problems that we have found so useful thus far for solving the PDEs to a general class of boundary value problems that share a common set of properties. The so-called Sturm-Liouville Problems define a class of eigenvalue problems, which include many of the previous problems as special cases. The S − L Problem helps to identify those assumptions that ar...
