Health queries

Cardiac problem

My father is 68 years old and has been suffering from blood pressure for the last 15 years. He is under medication with good control. He had a mild attack two years ago and ever since he has developed swelling of the legs and feels breathless on exertion. Can homoeopathy help?

Ramesh

When the blood supply generated through every heartbeat is not enough for the bodily functions there is stasis in the areas of gravity like the lower limbs. While the medication he is under would keep high blood pressure and other parameters in normal levels, homoeopathic medicines such as Convallaria majalis, Strophanthus, Digitalis, Adonis vernalis help in improving heart muscle function and thereby clear swelling too. Consult a homoeopath.

Diabetes

I am a diabetic for the past 15 years and of late on regular check ups it has been found that there is loss of protein in the urine. My doctor it to the long-standing disease while the other tests for kidney function have remained normal. How would homoeopathy help me?

Narayan Rao

This disease does cause various side effects on the functions of the body over a period of time. But since the other parameters are normal it is good. Homoeopathic medicine has good remedies like Abroma augusta, Cephalandra indica, Gynmena sylvestra which can allay such side effects due to diabetes. Consult a homoeopath.

Fissure

I have pain while passing stool and it lasts for about five hours later also. I have a tendency for constipation. This problem gets worse on eating non veg foods. Do suggest a remedy for the same.

Ratanhia 30 three times a day for five days would give initial relief and a follow up with homoeopath would help you to prevent recurrence.
