Gout

*Gout and Its Homeopathic Management* 

Gout is a type of arthritis characterized by sudden, severe attacks of pain, redness, and tenderness in joints, often at the base of the big toe. It's caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood, which can form sharp urate crystals in joints. These crystals trigger inflammation and intense pain.

 *Causes and Risk Factors* 

 *Diet :*  intake of purine-rich foods such as red meat, seafood, and alcoholic beverages can increase uric acid levels.

 *Genetics:* Family history plays a role in the predisposition to gout.

 *Medical Conditions:* Conditions like obesity, diabetes, and hypertension increase the risk.

 *Medications* : Diuretics and drugs containing salicylate can elevate uric acid levels.

 *Age and Gender:* Men are more prone to gout, though the risk for women increases post-menopause.

 *Symptoms of Gout

Intense Joint Pain:* 

Commonly affects the large joint of the big toe but can occur in feet, ankles, knees, hands, and wrists.

1. Lingering Discomfort: After the severe pain subsides, some joint discomfort might last from a few days to a few weeks.

2. Inflammation and Redness: The affected joint becomes swollen, tender, warm, and red.

3. Limited Range of Motion: As gout progresses, it may limit the range of motion in the affected joints.

 *Some commonly used homeopathic remedies include:* 

 *Colchicum:* 

 Effective for acute gout attacks with severe pain and swelling in the big toe, especially when the pain worsens with movement or touch.

 *Ledum Palustre:* 

Used for gout affecting the feet and joints, particularly when the pain is better with cold applications and worse from heat.

 *Urtica Urens:* 

 Beneficial for treating gout with high uric acid levels, especially when the pain is associated with red, swollen joints.

 *Benzoicum Acidum:* Useful for gout with dark, strong-smelling urine, and when there is swelling and pain in the big toe.

 *Lycopodium:* 

 Indicated for gout in the knee or big toe, particularly when symptoms worsen in the evening and there is a craving for sweets.

 *Rhus Toxicodendron:*

 Suitable for gout with stiff, swollen joints that are worse in cold, damp weather and improve with heat and movement.

 *Lifestyle and Dietary Recommendations* 

In addition to

 homeopathic remedies, lifestyle and dietary changes are crucial in managing gout:

1. Hydration: Drink plenty of water to help flush uric acid from the body.

2. Diet: Avoid purine-rich foods like red meat, organ meats, and seafood. Incorporate low-purine foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy products.

3. Limit Alcohol: Reduce or eliminate alcohol consumption, particularly beer.

4. Maintain a Healthy Weight: Obesity increases the risk of gout, so weight management through diet and exercise is beneficial.

5. Regular Exercise: Engage in regular physical activity to maintain joint flexibility and overall health.

Otitis

Earaches can make life miserable. At times, the pain gets so intense that it throws life in jeopardy. This is where homeopathic medicines come as a huge relief. Earaches of different origins can be effectively treated with homeopathic medicines.

*  Chamomilla:  Chamomilla is the best homeopathic relief for people suffering from excruciating earache. The pain usually aggravates at night. The maddening pain leaves the person mentally very agitated. The medicine is equally helpful for children who get agitated and irritated due to the unbearable pain.

*  Pulsatilla:  At times, the earache is accompanied by a thick (mostly greenish) discharge from the ear. As a result, the ear feels quite heavy. A person might also experience difficulty in hearing. The darting pain is at its worst self at night. Such earaches and associated symptoms are best treated with the homeopathic medicine, Pulsatilla.

*  Hepar sulph:  It is an excellent remedy for earaches triggered due to otitis, cold or any other upper respiratory infections. It quickle releives the earpain of children.

*  Sometimes, even a little exposure to cold air can result in earaches. Worse still, there is pus like discharge from the ear and fever. The ear is very sensitive to touch. Hepar Sulph is an ideal homeopathic remedy under such circumstances. Psorinum is mainly used when the pus like discharge has a very unpleasant odour.

*  At times, dental problems and throat infections can result in severe earache. Homeopathy has a solution for all. Plantago is an excellent homeopathic medicine to treat earaches resulting from toothache. Merc Sol is effective against earaches originating from dental problems. In such cases, there may be blood or yellow discharge from the ear. The pain gets unbearable at night. 

Lachesis and Phytollaca are known to provide great relief from earaches resulting from throat infections. Lachesis is helpful when the throat pain slowly shoots up to the left ear. Swallowing of food makes the situation worse. Phytollaca, on the other hand, is the best medicine when the shooting ear pain is right sided. Belladonna helps to deal with severe and throbbing ear pain.

*  Infection of the Otitis Media (middle ear) is a common factor, resulting in earaches. There may be fever and pus like discharge. The hearing is also greatly impaired. At night, the pain reaches the superlative degree. Go for Hepar Sulph if the pain intensifies upon slightest exposure to cold air. Use Belladona in case the ear infection is at a very nascent stage. Pulsatilla is equally effective to treat such earaches.

*  Many a times, the ear pain can be of nerve origin. It is more of a facial pain, with the ear being affected. Verbascum Thapsus (Mullen Oil) can be of great help and can also be effectively used as an ear drop to provide some relief.

In case you have a concern or query you can always consult a specialist & get answers to your questions!

Infertility, Abortion / Miscarriage Homoeopathic Remedies for Common Problems associated with Pregnancy and Childbirth 

Sepia is considered to be a very effective treatment for infertility. The diagnosis for Sepia must not be based on the physical constitution of the patient alone. Unless the constitution of the patient exactly matches that of Sepia, it will prove to be of no use. If the constitution of the patient only resembles that of Sepia (rather then completely matching it), then Kali Phos will be found more useful than Sepia.

 Sexual weakness resulting from nervous tension as well as the tendency to abort repeatedly (habitual abortion), can be effectively cured with Kali Phos. If there is a risk of miscarriage in early pregnancy, then Viburnum Opulus Q, ten to fifteen drops dissolved in small amount of water, used regularly in the first and second month of pregnancy is considered to be more effective.

 

Sabina is given in the third month, while Kali Carb is given in the fourth and fifth month. Kali Phos can, however, be given every month.

 An abortion threatened by a fall or an accident must be treated with Arnica 1000 before the appearance of symptoms. The addition of Kali Phos to Arnica will be much more beneficial. Caulophyllum 200 also is very effective prophylactially. Once the bleeding starts (threatened abortion), then Ferrum Phos must be added to Kali Phos. Likewise, Millefolium and Phosphorus together can avert the abortion. 

Sometimes, the baby is malpositioned in the uterus, posing a threat to normal delivery; Pulsatilla is usually very useful in the correcting the position to normal. If it fails, then Kali Sulph, which is the chronic of Pulsatilla, should be tried. Kali Sulph strengthens the uterus against the tendency to abort. Kali Sulph is useful in every type of leucorrhoeal inflammation and burning sensation. Uterine prolapse, and pain and pressure in the womb are best treated with Kali Sulph, provided other symptoms of Kali Sulph are present.

 

In Kreosotum, the typical sign is bleeding. The slightest pressure, like the simplest touch during an eye examination, can cause bleeding. Likewise, the uterus tends to bleed easily resulting in continuous menstrual bleeding. 

In Ledum, the periods are frequent and profuse; the colour is bright red. If other symptoms of Ledum are also present, then Ledum alone can cure most of the problems related to the uterus. 

Lilium Tig is more useful in the treatment of women of hysterical and explosive nature, who have problems related to the uterus and the heart. Their mind is occupied by all kinds of doubts, fear and anxiety. They feel as if the uterus and other pelvic organs are prolapsing downwards, all of which they unknowingly try to support manually. In such patients, their periods begin before their regular time and are scanty and offensive, containing dark blood clots. The bleed intensifies on movement and subsides on resting and lying down.

 

The main features of Merc Sol are sharp stinging pain associated with burning sensation, excessive menstrual bleeding, pain in the abdomen, corrosive vaginal discharge (leucorrhoea). These symptoms are worse at night. There is morning sickness, scalding urination, feeling better by washing with cold water. Merc Sol will also be useful to avert the tendency to abort in early pregnancy due to the weakness of the uterus, by strengthening the uterus so that it may safely hold and nourish the foetus. 

After marriage, some women may develop irregularity of periods, pelvic pains and nervousness, and should be treated with Medorrhinum. 

Periods lasting much longer, pain and cramps in the lower part of the abdomen and excessive bleeding are the main symptoms of Millefolium. If all the three symptoms are found together, then Millefolium, by God’s grace, instantly relieves the condition, with rare exception. Likewise, Millefolium will allay the threat of abortion where bleeding starts due to slight movement and stops on resting. Millefolium is also very useful in treating varicose veins of the legs that develop during pregnancy. If Millefolium is given at this time, it will stop the progression of the disease. When a woman starts having fits of epilepsy and spasms due to the stoppage of her period, or the period starts due to excessive physical exertion, in this condition Millefolium is also useful.

 Kali Carb is very beneficial in treating a myriad of weaknesses that develop after childbirth. Natrum Mur is also very effective in the restoration of health.

 If a fever develops after childbirth, this (puerperal fever) can be treated with Sulphur and Pyrogenum combined. Pulsatilla helps in expulsion of the remaining placenta and blood clots. 

Irregular periods, the irritating type of leucorrhoea, premenstrual tension, the bearing down type of pain, heaviness in the morning and excessive burning in urination are all indications for Natrum Mur. 

Natrum Carb is ideal for the treatment of infertility resulting from chronic leucorrhoea. A Natrum Carb patient is of a cold constitution, has continuous leucorrhoea and cannot conceive. If these symptoms are found together, then through the Grace of God, Natrum Carb alone would be very effective in curing the infertility. 

Pulsatilla, Ashoka and Gossypium Q are also excellent remedies for infertility. Other appropriate remedies should also be employed, depending on the associated symptoms e.g. if the uterus feels as if out of place, then Natrum Phos could be useful. The hands of the patient of Natrum Phos, like that of Psorinum, remain very cold. In Natrum Phos, some symptoms also resemble Pulsatilla. During menstruation the hands and the feet are especially cold in the morning. 

                                      General Instructions Concerning Pregnancy 

                                       And the Facilitation of Childbirth

 

Ferrum Phos, Calcarea Phos and Kali Phos 6X started twice a day in the third or fourth month of pregnancy serve as a very useful tonic for both the mother and the baby. The treatment must be stopped for a week or ten days after every one to two weeks. Continuous use of these is not advisable. 

At the onset of labour pains, Kali Phos and Mag Phos 6X dissolved in warm water should be administered every one to two hours for eight to ten times a day. The first three doses should be given every half hour and then at prolonged intervals. 

One dose of Arnica 1000 should be given before delivery and one right after the delivery. For the fever developing after delivery, Sulphur and Pyrogenum 200 together must be given two to three times a day for the first few days. Once the fever starts subsiding, then once a day for three days. After that, once a day for two weeks. In my experience, there is no better treatment for puerperal fever than this.

 If milk is not being produced after childbirth, then Bryonia and Phytolacca should be given together once or twice a day. They work wonders. They may be given in potency 30, three to four times a day. 

Depression after childbirth (Post-partum depression) can be effectively treated with Ignatia 200 instantly. If however, the treatment falls short, then one dose of Natrum Mur 200 after Ignatia will make up for it.

 

For the phobia of going out, the treatment is Calcarea Carb 1000 once a week for three weeks.

 Weak and ineffective labour pains should be treated with Pulsatilla 30, three to four times a day. If the position of the child is breech (the reverse of the normal position), then give Pulsatilla 200, one or two doses. For the transverse lie (the child lying sideways), Arnica and Caulophyllum 200 combined, given once a day for a few days is very useful. This combination also produces wonderful results in a serious and potentially fatal condition, Placenta Praevia, in which the placenta is attached near the opening of the womb.

 Further reference concerning the problems related to pregnancy and childbirth are found under Kali Carb, Caulophyllum, Causticum and Gelsemium.
