روزہ دار کی صحت کے مسائل اور ہومیوپیتھی (3) – نظر کی کمزوری، دھندلاپن اور چکر آنا – حسین قیصرانی

رمضان کریم میں کھانے پینے، سونے جاگنے اور زندگی کے اکثر معاملات میں واضح تبدیلی ہو جاتی ہے۔ بعض روزہ دار خواتین و حضرات کو صحت کے وقتی مسائل عبادات کی بجا آوری میں مشکلات کا باعث بنتے ہیں۔ گزشتہ چند دنوں میں جن تکلیفوں کے مریضوں نے زیادہ تعداد میں رابطہ کیا اُن کی مختصر ترین علامات اور ہومیوپیتھک دوائیں ایک سیریز کی شکل میں سلسلہ وار پیش کی جائیں گی۔ ویسے تو یہ دوائیں ان مسائل کے علاوہ دیگر بے شمار بیماریوں کے علاج میں بھی استعمال ہوتی ہیں۔ یہ وضاحت بہت ضروری ہے کہ یہ دوائیں صرف خالی معدہ یا روزہ دار کی تکالیف میں مدد دے سکتی ہیں اگر دوائی کے ساتھ درج علامت بھی مریض میں موجود ہو گی۔ عام حالات میں یا اگر مسائل پرانے(Chronic) ہوں تو ڈاکٹر کے مشورہ سے ہی کوئی دوائی read more [...]

Homeopathic Remedy Silicea terra (sil.) سلیشیا – The Essence of Materia Medica (George Vithoulkas)

The key idea describing Silica patients is that they are YIELDING. It is a kind of shyness or timidity, but not really a cowardice (like Lycopodium or Gelsemium). It is a submissiveness that arises out of a lack of energy to insist upon his or her point of view, even though it may be strongly held; They are quite agreeable and mild, easy to get along with. Silica patients are intellectuals, but not aggressive or critical like Lachesis; They have highly refined sensibilities, and they are very intelligent. If you try to impose an opinion upon a Silica person, she will not oppose you. She is sensitive to impressions and therefore takes into account your point of view. She understands very well where you are right and where you are wrong but she holds her opinions to herself. Unlike Pulsatilla, she has an opinion of her own, but she does not want to go to the trouble to impress it upon the world. Thus, Silica appears mild and reserved – but not at all like Staphysagria, Ignatia, or Natrum mur. It is not an isolation. They are capable of freely talking about themselves when circumstances permit, and they make friends easily. They would never become dependent or demanding of the read more [...]

Calcarea Phosphorica – Homeopathic Remedy – Materia Medica Viva George Vithoulkas

Calcarea phosphorica Calcium Phosphate. Phosphate of Lime. Tricalcic Phosphate. Ca3 2PO4 . A mixture of the basic and several complex calcium phosphates - produced by adding dilute phosphoric acid to lime water. Trituration. The essential features Calcarea phosphorica is a deep-acting remedy with a wide range of symptomatology. Unfortunately, it is often confused with several of our polychrests, the most frequent of these being Calcarea carbonica, Chamomilla, Phosphoricum acidum, Phosphorus and Tuberculinum. A more thorough understanding of this remedy will enable the practitioner to better distinguish it from the others mentioned above. There are three primary causative factors for the development of a Calcarea phosphorica case: bad nutrition bad news bad weather Deficient or poor nutrition is required to produce the classic Calcarea phosphorica picture, especially on the physical level. This picture encompasses the basic structural and developmental pathology described in earlier texts, whose symptoms include: rachitis; emaciation; bone diseases; the non-union of fractured bones; anaemic states; slow or difficult convalescence after acute diseases. Specifically in babies: read more [...]

Homeopathic Remedy Kalium Carbonicum (kali-c.) کالی کارب – The Essence of Materia Medica (George Vithoulkas)

Kalium Carbonicum (kali-c.) As mentioned by Kent, Kali carb. is a remedy which is difficult to perceive in its essence both in the patient and in the Materia Medicas. The primary image of the patient is not readily available from provings, so it is known mostly by experienced homoeopaths possessing the skill of careful, systematic observation. It is very important to understand, however, because Kali carb. is a profoundly deep and long lasting remedy when prescribed early enough to prevent progression to an incurable stage of pathology. The Kali carb. patient has a distinctive personality; committed dogmatically to strong sense of duty to an inflexible, rigid degree. It is an uptight state in which the mind maintains iron control over experience, behavior, and emotions. Such a person is compelled to see the world in terms of black and white, right and wrong, proper and improper. In his appearance and behavior he is correct, uptight, proper. He, or she, will be stoic, uncomplaining, dogmatic, by the book. In the field of psychology, the Kali carb personality would be the epitome of the "anal-retentive" type To such a person, life seems to be solid, clear, immutable, functional. Such read more [...]

Homeopathic Remedy VERATRUM ALBUM (Verat.) – وراٹرم البم – وریٹرم البم – The Essence of Materia Medica George Vithoulkas

Veratrum album (verat.) The Veratrum influence is constant activity. This is not s much violence or aggressiveness, except in the most extreme state. It is rather a driven, ceaseless energy compelling the patient to be busy all the time. It is likely to be activity for its own sake, without purpose – constantly stacking books or chairs, endless cleaning. In the hyperactive child, it is unceasing drawing, painting, singing, playing, but unlike Stramonium, it is not breaking things or destructive. Such a person may be a pest, demanding attention by sheer energy, but not actually destructive. The Veratrum patient has a profound confusion about his identity. He thinks he is Christ or John the Baptist, or a chosen person to save the world. This is the street corner preacher who, day in and day out, exhorts people to repent, repeating over and over the same righteous message, often at the top of his lungs. Unlike Stramonium, the actual physical strength is not increased, but rather there is surprising stamina. The person seems never to run out of steam. In Stramonium, we see an eruption of the unconscious about what is happening to him. In Veratrum, the person does not SEE delusions read more [...]

Carcinosinum – Homeopathic Remedy – Materia Medica Viva George Vithoulkas

Carcinosinum   Cancerinum A nosode from Carcinoma   Historical background The first to mention and use Carcinosin, the cancer nosode, was James Tyler Kent. He called it 'Carcinoma', and this is how he prepared the remedy: 'The preparation of Carcinoma which I have used, for years, was taken from a mammary cancer. The patient had continual seeping of clear, colourless, watery discharge from the open cancer. A small quantity of this fluid was saved and potentised, and has served satisfactorily, in many cases of advanced carcinoma.' He used it as a palliative in cancer cases: 'Carcinoma relieves the sharp, burning tearing pains. With this remedy (nosode), patients have been kept comfortable, for many years, when cure was impossible and the cancerous development continued. The malignant process was delayed, and sufferings usually accompanying the condition were avoided' (Kent, New Remedies, Lesser Writings, Clinical Cases, Aphorisms and Precepts, p. 523f). The English homeopath James Compton Burnett and his well-known colleague J.H. Clarke were the next to do research and practice in the field of cancer nosodes. They used Scirrhinum primarily, which is said read more [...]

Carbo Vegetabilis – Homeopathic Remedy – Materia Medica Viva George Vithoulkas

Carbo Vegetabilis Vegetable Charcoal C (impure).  Trituration.   The essential features If there is a one word that characterizes the pathology of this remedy, the word is emptiness. It is a feeling as if life has gone and left an empty space, a shell without life, an empty sack. Such are the feelings of the typical Carbo vegetabilis patient: totally devoid of energy and he will feel this way in both acute and chronic conditions. If we want to generalise grossly about such pathology we can say that it is the result of imperfect oxygenation of the blood and sluggish circulation. The oxygen that keeps life going cannot reach the brain cells in sufficient quantity any more, so even death may seem to be imminent. It is a remedy we must think of in cases where the patient confirms that the present state has originated after a specific stress, be it a common cold, or a more severe acute disease, after a fall, an accident, any sort of loss of blood, a night of overeating and consequent indigestion, or due to drinking too much; in general it appears wherever the organism, under a particular stress, has fallen into a chronic state that has disturbed him for years without read more [...]

Carbo Animalis – Homeopathic Remedy – Materia Medica Viva George Vithoulkas

Carbo Animalis Animal Charcoal. Made from charred ox-hide. C (impure). Contains Calc. phos. Trituration.   The essential features The Carbo animalis patient is a burnt-out individual lacking self-confidence, without stamina, and with a lot of fears, anxieties and delusions. He has almost all of the characteristics of someone who has lost the ability to fend for himself, and so is burning himself out fast and furiously. Anybody can ask him for whatever they want and take it from him; Carbo animalis has no power to resist, to say, "No, I am very tired now; I cannot do that." He no longer notices the needs of his own body, but only pays attention to the demands of others and feels obliged to fulfill them even at the cost of his own further exhaustion. He does not perceive the danger signals his body is sending him. A Carbo animalis person feels weak and prostrated. He simultaneously feels that he does not count, is nothing at all, is a non-entity, lacks an ego. He believes that others do not take him seriously, though others actually feel that he is a very sweet person, very kind, very giving, and one who will give in to their demands In my experience, read more [...]

Capsicum Annuum – Homeopathic Remedy – Materia Medica Viva George Vithoulkas

Capsicum Annuum Cayenne Pepper (South America and West Indies) O. Solanaceae Tincture of the dried pods.   The essential features The constitutional Capsicum individual is usually obese, flabby with a red face (especially a red nose) and has varicose vein conditions. On close examination, it becomes clear that this red appearance of the face is due to a fine interlacing of dilated capillaries such as may be seen in drunkards. The end of the nose is red, as are the eyes and cheeks. This remedy appears more frequently in males than females. The Capsicum individual is plump and round and lacking stamina; he is in a sluggish and tired state and has a lazy constitution. The whole organism is sluggish, flabby and slow. This low vitality is due to faulty assimilation. Capsicum's abdomen feels like a flabby sack with heavy intestines that drag him down. The Capsicum flabbiness is rather unique, though it may be confused with that of Kali bichromicum, Calcarea carbonica or Ferrum. Ferr. differs from Capsicum in that the redness of the cheeks is circumscribed and the face pale. When Calc. is given to Capsicum patients, it tends to make them even more obese. The Capsicum read more [...]

Cantharis Vesicatoria – Homeopathic Remedy – Materia Medica Viva George Vithoulkas

Cantharis Vesicatoria Cantharis vesicator, Lytta vesicatory. Blister-beetle, 'Spanish fly'. N.O. Insecta, Coleoptera. Tincture or trituration of live insects.   The essential features As is well known from our materia medica, remedies generally prefer a specific system, organ or area of the body and express their action there, although their action is by no means restricted to this location. Cantharis' preference is definitely the urogenital system, and it usually involves in its action both the urinary and the sexual spheres simultaneously. In Cantharis cases, when we have an inflammation of the urinary system, especially of the urethra and bladder, we see, at the same time, an excitation of the sexual drive. The more the inflammation of the urinary tract the more the sexual excitation, which can reach such a degree that it almost assumes the form of sexual frenzy. The first key-note of this remedy is a sensation of excessive burning, a burning pain which runs through all of the picture. It has been shown by external applications of Cantharis as well as by provings where the remedy was orally taken, that the remedy produces such burning of the mucous membranes read more [...]
