Homeopathic Cure For Bone Lesions

A two-century-old system of medicine, homeopathy involves diluted vegetable, animal or mineral remedies. Based on the "Law of Similar," remedies mimic symptoms associated with an illness or condition, thereby stimulating the body's natural healing process. Homeopaths believe that the more a remedy is diluted, the more potent it is. Remedies prescribed by homeopaths are typically diluted to the point that the molecules of the active substance are no longer present in the formulation.


Treatment








Decide whether your homeopathic treatment will involve self-treatment or professional guidance. A visit to a homeopath would entail an interview concerning lifestyle factors, such as diet regimens and sleep patterns, to identify the best remedy for the specific type of bone lesion that you have, followed by treatment instructions. Depending on the individual's familiarity with homeopathy and the severity of the illness, a supervised treatment regimen may be recommended.


If you've decided to seek professional guidance to treat a bone lesion(s), the International Foundation for Homeopathy, North American Society of Homeopaths, American Homeopathic Medical Association, National Center for Homeopathy and American Holistic Medical Association have searchable directories that can aid you.


Bone Lesion Symptoms


Bone lesions are also known as bone tumors. Some are non-cancerous while others are cancerous. Primary bone cancer begins in the bone and is different from cancer that begins somewhere else in the body and spreads to bone (secondary bone cancer).


Symptoms can include swelling, pain, weakness or fatigue, and in some cases, there may be no symptoms. In order to start homeopathic treatment, it is necessary to identify the symptoms associated with the bone lesion.


Remedies


Homeopathy remedies are symptom-specific. As a result, in order to find the best remedy, an individual's symptoms related to her bone lesions must be identified. There are two main bone lesion treatment approaches--the first is to target the illness as primarily a bone disease, while the other approach is to treat the cancer.


Asafoetida is a remedy for bone-related symptoms, which include discharges, soreness and dull throbbing pain, while Calcarea fluorica treats bone enlargements such as that experienced following teeth extraction.


Meanwhile, Cadmium is a cancer remedy. Cadmium Metallicum specifically treats bone cancer symptoms such as severe joint pain, gastrointestinal issues, headaches and numbness of hands and feet.
