Can homoeopathy help me in loosing weight?
Obesity is not just a cosmetic issue but a complex medical problem of appetite regulation and energy metabolism that can lead to many serious illnesses including diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. Besides, it can also cause alterations in the activity of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Shortness of breath and back pain are also not uncommon.
Homoeopathic treatment coupled with adoption of strategies for achieving and maintaining a healthy weight can help a lot.
Antimon. crudum, Calc carb, Graphites, Fucus ves, Capsicum, Ferrum, Ammon. mur, Phytolacca, Pulsatilla, Sulphur, Thuja, Lycopodium, etc., are some of the leading homoeopathic remedies which can help shed excess fat from the body.
Please consult a competent homoeopath in your city. He will prescribe a homoeopathic remedy best suited to your type of obesity. Show the above list by way of suggestion. The homoeopath may select one of these remedies or he may select a different one as the above list is not at all exhaustive.
Can homoeopathy do something about the bed-wetting of my sons, aged 5 and 7?
Up to five years, bed-wetting is quite common. Even up to seven years, if the number of episodes is two or three per month, it should not be taken as a problem needing homoeopathic help. Boys seem to be more affected than the girls. Causes vary. It may be triggered by psychological trauma, such as the arrival of a baby, or by physical ailments, such as a kidney or bladder infection.
Whatever the cause, homoeopathy can help remove the problem usually within less than a fortnight. This condition should be treated homeopathically under the care of a professional. The multi-ingredient medicines freely available under the garb of homeopathy for this problem should be avoided as such medicines are not prepared according to the strict principles of homeopathic pharmacy and therefore have the potential to cause harm.
Does homoeopathy have an effective cure for shortness of height?
Several factors are involved in determining the height of an individual. A person, for example, can be short because of hereditary factors: children of short parents tend to be short themselves. Poor nutrition or chronic disease can stunt a child’s growth. There are several types but the most common among Pakistanis is: proportionate dwarfism which often results from a hormonal deficiency due to underperformance of the pituary gland which makes growth harmone.
Constitutional homeopathic treatment along with specific homoeopathic remedies can help gain normal or at least near-normal height. Patent medicines being advertised and marketed under the garb of homeopathy should be avoided.
I have been diagnosed with low sperm motility. Is there a way in homoeopathy to increase sperm motility.
Sperm motility can be brought to normal or near normal under homeopathic treatment. See a competent homeopath, he will take full case and prescribe a course of treatment carefully attuned to your condition. In the meantime, try to see if there are other factors that are causing low motility. Firstly, too frequent intercourse may mean too few or immature sperms. Job and personal stress affect sperm motility as do fatigue and overindulgence in tobacco.

I have a tendency to get warts. I have tried several methods, including cauterization and freezing with liquid nitrogen but they come back. Does homoeopathy have a solution?
Yes, by the grace of Allah.
Thuja, Dulcamara, Acid nit, Causticum, Natrum sulph, Sabina are a few of a long list of homoeopathic remedies used internally to effectively remove and prevent recurrence of warts.
There are several types of warts - common, flat-surfaced, filiform, plantar, etc. Depending upon the type and locality, a homoeopath can prescribe a specific remedy for their removal. But please keep in mind, that not all warts are vulnerable to homoeopathic treatment. Some types are as defiant to homoeopathy as they could be under any system of medicine.
Homoeopathic mixtures available over the counter should be avoided as they rarely help and often complicate the problem.
I have acne/pimples. I wonder, if you could help me. I live in the USA and do not have a homoeopath nearby. What should I do to receive your treament?
Thank you for your interest in homoeopathy. In a great number of cases, homoeopathy has not only successfully treated acne but also removed the scars left by it to the delight of the sufferer. However, the law of individualization also applies here. The best medicine for any condition, as also stated somewhere else, differs from case to case as the remedy is not selected for the disease name but for the patient as a whole taking into account the striking symptoms and modalities of his/her problem(s) as well as personal characteristics. In one case of acne, Antimonium crudum may work but in the other it may not do any good and Kalium bromatum may help. Yet in the third case, the patient may not benefit from any of the two and may need Causticum, Echinacea, Sepia, Sulphur or Pulsatilla or any other remedy according to the particular indications and personal characteristics.
You may like to consult me through e-mail. If so, I can send you details about what I would need to know about you and your complaint in order to prescribe a suitable remedy.
What is the best medicine for arthritis?
The best remedy for a given disease differs from case to case in homoeopathy as the remedy is not selected for the disease name but for the patient as a whole taking into account the striking symptoms and modalities of his problem(s) as well as his personal characteristics. In one case of arthritis, Bryonia alba may work but in the other it may not do any good and Rhus toxicodendron may help. Yet in the third case, the patient may not benefit from any of the two and may need Causticum or Pulsatilla or any other remedy according to the particular indications and personal characteristics. So in that sense, there is no best remedy for any disease in homoeopathy. The medicine that works in a given case is the best for that case ONLY.
Could you kindly prescribe a good medicine for my cough of six months' standing?
I am afraid, I can’t because, as has been stated elsewhere, like any other medical problem, there are several medicines for cough. If you have had cough for such a long period, it needs to be investigated. Please consult a good homoeopath in your city.
What prospects does homoeopathy hold for the treatment of MND?
My mother has recently been diagnosed with the disease and we have been told, there is no treatment. Could homoeopathy help?
MND or motor neuron disease is a chronic disease of motor neurons which are responsible for carrying messages from the brain along the spinal cord to the muscles of the body. For unknown cause, the nerves of the brain and the spinal cord begin to die, disconnecting the communication channel between the brain and the particular part of the body they communicate with as a result, that particular part first becomes paralysed and later begins to waste away.
Symptoms vary from condition to condition. Some of the common symptoms are weakness, tightness and spasms, wasting of muscles, general fatigue, etc. Usually hands, legs or arms are the first to be affected. Muscle weakness causes difficulties with performing tasks like undoing a bottle top or holding heavy objects, or with walking or climbing stairs. At some stage, there can be problems with swallowing and speech. The symptoms are usually progressive - so that wasting or weakness first seen in one part of the body will spread to other parts with time.
First thing to do in case of your mother is to prevent development of bed-sores – something quite common in bed-ridden patients. A nurse can take care of her hygienic needs. Twice a day (forenoon and night) session with a physiotherapist in conjunction with homoeopathic treatment may help in slowing down the progress of the disease and, possibly, reversing the damage. MNDs do not usually offer a good prognosis and homoeopathy can just provide symptomatic relief as and when needed and that should be under the personal care and vigilance of a good LOCAL homoeopath. Consultation through e-mail is certainly not an option in such cases.
