Dr. H.A.ROBERTS
Sycosis is a venereal miasm, established after the
suppression of gonorrhoeal discharge.
Infiltration and overgrowth of tissue.
Sycotic patient is too susceptible to the available
constructive elements; he seizes upon & assimilates to the
point of overgrowth of tissues.
Of all the miasms sycosis is the most insidious one. It was
spread widely during the years 1809-1814 (during French War)
It is also called as the fig wart disease. Sycosis is not
gonorrhoea. Gonorrhoea is an acute infection, caused by
gonococci and it takes around five to ten days to develop
urethritis. If it is completely cured, then Sycosis never
develops.
The basic trait of sycosis miasm is confused mentally and

reaction
