Homeopathy and Homeopathic remedies, an answer to the incurable psoriasis

Researches have evidently proved that psoriatic patients experienced a momentous improvement in their disease manifestation as well as the quality of their lives after taking Homeopathic treatment.

Psoriasis, an auto-immune inflammatory disorder primarily affecting the skin has been classified into basic five types as plaque, guttate, inverse, pustular and erythrodermic. The disease is marked by silvery white scaly patches appearing in the epidermal layer of the skin. Lesions commonly appear in the skin above the elbow and knees but may appear anywhere on the body. It is a chronic disorder marked with a tendency to recur at regular period of intervals.

Causes of psoriasis are stiff unknown but in many cases there have been evidences of genetic predispositions. However, there are many triggers which are known to aggravate the prevailing psoriatic conditions thereby making it a challenging condition to be treated.

Major stressor causes include:

• Stress
• Cold Climatic Condition
• Discontinuing certain medicines like corticosteroids
• Injury

Flaring up of the disease can be brought about by injury to the skin known as Koebner Phenomena. Psoriasis may affect the joint and cause severe forms of arthropathies known as psoriatic arthropathy or psoriatic arthritis.

Homeopathy believes that psoriasis is an immune mediated condition brought about by faulty signals sent in the body's immune system. Therefore, Homeopathy works to stabilize the anomalous immune system. Homeopathic medicines arouse the body's own healing abilities by restoring the balance of the immune system and decreasing the person’s susceptibility towards a trigger agent that aggravates the disease.

The duration of Homeopathic treatment varies from case to case depending on the following factors:

• Time duration of psoriatic affection
• Parts of the body affected
• Extent of spread of the lesions
• Any previous medications taken like steroids
• General health and associated diseases

Homeopathic treatment of psoriasis has been very controversial amongst the people taking treatment for it as the immediate change observed by them after the Homeopathic medicine has been given for the first time, is diverse in different patients. Some experience a slight amelioration; some report no change whereas some report a bad flaring up of the complaints. Most of patients of psoriasis usually observe ameliorating results in about 1-2 months of Homoeopathic treatment and complete relief maybe observed in about 1 to 2 years.

The Homeopathic response can be illustrated through various cases treated with Homeopathy:

An Allergy is a hypersensitivity disorder of the immune system. It is an abnormal reaction or increased Sensitivity to specific substance.

Allergies can manifest after ingestion, inhalation, injection and infestation etc. Non-allergic person never gets affected by specific substances which affects allergic individuals on even exposure.

1. Food: Such as proteins, eggs, milk and dairy, seafood, wheat, peanuts, certain vegetables like tomatoes, potatoes etc. The allergens in food are responsible for inciting an allergic reaction. They are proteins which are resistant to heat of cooking, the acid in the stomach and the intestinal digestive enzymes. As a result, these allergens survive to cross the gastrointestinal lining, enter the bloodstream, and go to target organs, or parts causing allergic reactions throughout the body.
2. Common Environmental Factors: Such as pollen, dust, sunlight, dust mites, animal fur, etc.

How Confidently Can You As Homeopathic Healer Treat Asthma With Homeopathy?

It has been estimated that about 300 million people in the world and 30 million people in our country are a prey to various forms of asthma accounting to a total of 10% of the world’s asthmatic population. Despite of the latest researches, advances and invention of extremely affordable medications, the current scenario of asthma is not very convincing. Probable reasons include ignorance, people being unaware of the situation, undiagnosed cases or patients receiving sub-optimal treatment. About 50% of the asthmatic population fails to adhere to the regular medication protocols.

Asthma, a chronic obstructive respiratory disorder is known to occur as a result of heightened immune response to a particular allergen. The disease is marked by episodes of severe breathlessness causing wheezing and cough with a sensation of oppression in the chest occurring as a result of an exposure to a stimulant. Common triggers include dust, pollen, changes in weather, molds, pet animals, chemicals in air or food, tobacco smoke, strong emotions, etc.

When different systems of healing have provided a symptomatic relief, homeopathy promises a lasting cure for a disease like asthma, which inspite of repeated efforts is evoked back by the slightest of a trigger.

Reasons why Homeopathy works:

• Homeopathy essentially focuses on the man in disease rather than the man’s disease.
• Homeopathic physician takes a detailed history of the patient including the intricacies of his life situation, paying more emphasis to find the causative, aggravating and ameliorating modality.
• Homeopathy investigates for any history of suppression especially through the skin.
• Homeopathy discovers the familial tendencies and predispositions.
• Homeopathy effectively works on patient’s immune system and normalizes the susceptibility. Thus, Homeopathy brings about a normal reaction to a particular allergen to which a person was previously hypersensitive.

After a detailed case history, Homeopathic physician prescribes a remedy that covers the symptoms of the disease as well as the characteristics of the patient. Many a times, after administration of a simillimum (the most suitable homeopathic remedy), physician notices amelioration in the asthmatic symptoms but reappearance of the previously present skin eruption thereby suggesting two things:

1. The Homeopathic remedy given is working in accordance with the Hering’s Law of cure.
2. There has been a history of suppression of a skin disease interiorizing itself to the deeper organs.

Asthma and Suppression

 As the treatment commences, a homeopathic physician may witness

• The intensity of the attack reduces
• The frequency of the attack reduces
• As the patient keeps on improving with Homeopathy, the attack stops and patient feels healthy
• Complete desensitization to the allergen by Homeopathy ensured by no symptom manifestation on exposure to the known allergen

Did you know?

• Homeopathic drug Sanicula has fish-brine odour in the mouth just before an attack of asthma.
• Homeopathic drug Bovista has cutting pains in the tongue before an attack of asthma.
• Veratrum album, a homeopathic remedy has congestion of liver with asthmatic complaints.
• Homeopathic remedy Phosphorus has itching in the shoulders with asthmatic complaints.
• Homeopathic remedy Borax is suitable for cases manifesting spasmodic convulsions before asthma.
