Home Remedies for Enlarged Prostate

 Enlarged prostate or benign prostatic enlargement happens when cells in the prostate abnormally divide and multiply, causing the organ to increase in size.
 Enlarged prostate, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is a disorder that generally affects men 50 years of age and older. BPH is not the same as prostate cancer.
 The prostate is a small, muscular gland (in the shape of a walnut) in the male reproductive system. It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder and adds fluid to semen to allow sperm mobility.
With age, the cells of the gland begin to multiply, leading to an enlarged prostate. Although the exact cause is unknown, changes in male sex hormones with age may be a factor.
 It occurs when the prostate enlarges to twice or even three times its size, pressing against the urethra and resulting in restricted/ obstructed urine flow.
As a consequence of this obstructed flow, lower urinary tract symptoms manifest.
In Ayurevda, prostate enlargement is known as parush granthi shoth. This problem is mainly due to the imbalance of vata dosha. Imbalance of dosha occurs due to the consumption of spicy foods and other food products which can cause the aggravation of pitta dosha also.
Home Remedies for prostate enlargement are very effective to resolve this problem to a greater extent.

Common symptoms of BPH include:

needing to urinate more than eight times a day
being unable to delay urination
waking up frequently at night to urinate

Homeopathic remedies for cuts, bruises and wounds

 

Cuts and bruises is a common occurrence in any household. In most cases, they’re ignored and left to heal on their own. However, some injuries can take a while to heal. If you think about it, you’ll also notice that when you’ve injured yourself somewhere, you tend to keep hitting that spot against things and make it worse. Homeopathy is a form of treatment that has negligible side effects and is very effective at speeding up the healing process for bruises and other wounds.

  In homeopathy we have many remedies that can help with alleviation of pain and rapid recovery from injuries, as well as prevention of complications. For example Symphytum, Ruta, Ledum or Hypericum can help with the healing of bone fractures; remedies such as Hypericum, Hepar-sulph or Silica are often used in the treatment of wounds which have become infected, while the healing of injuries to joints, ligaments and tendons can be greatly helped by remedies such as Ruta and Rhus-tox
Without doubt, the most widely known and used remedy in accidents and injuries is ARNICA MONTANA. This amazing remedy is prepared from a little plant found high in the mountains all over the world, from the Alps in Europe to the Andes in South America. Its healing properties have been known in folk medicine for many centuries and millennia, and its use in homeopathic form has helped to extend further its sphere of action.
most important aspects-
 Pain, aching and soreness, due to mental and/or physical shock.
Physical trauma to soft tissues; for bruises and contusions accompanied by pain, bruising and swelling. These include: eyes, muscles, head – very useful in concussions of the brain. (For trauma to internal parts such as abdomen or breasts, Bellis perennis should be taken, if there is no improvement with Arnica.)
Sprains and strains caused by prolonged and unaccustomed exertion, such as a challenging session at the gym, or a long walk after a week of sedentary work in the office, or after an energetic session of house spring-cleaning.
Labour (=exertion) and trauma of delivery: Arnica 30, taken internally, one pill three times a day for 2-4 days will be of great benefit to the new mother.
After surgery or dental extraction, to prevent shock and pain and to promote quick repair of affected tissues. Excessive bleeding can also be prevented by taking Arnica as soon as possible after these interventions.
Arnica can be applied externally as an ointment or cream, or as a lotion made from one part tincture diluted to ten parts of water, but ONLY if there is no broken skin. Where there are skin abrasions or open wounds Arnica should be given only internally, as pills.

Homeopathic remedies for Tongue and oral cancer

In India, oral cancer accounts for one-third of all cancers. Early detection and immediate intervention can lead to marked reduction in the morbidity and mortality. In India, Ayurveda and homeopathy practitioners are distributed widely in rural and urban areas and are easily accessible. Until date, no assessment on their oral cancer knowledge and practice has been done.

Tongue cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the cells of the tongue, and can cause lesions or tumors on your tongue.
Tongue cancer can occur on the front of the tongue, which is called “oral tongue cancer.” Or it may occur at the base of the tongue, near where it attaches to the bottom of your mouth. This is called “oropharyngeal cancer.”
Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of tongue cancer. This type of cancer occurs:
· on the surface of the skin
· in the lining of the mouth, nose, larynx, thyroid, and throat
· in the lining of the respiratory and digestive tracts
All of these parts of the body are covered in squamous cells.
Tongue cancer is also more common in older men than in women or younger people. Oral cancers are most common in people over 55 years old.

Stages and grades

Tongue cancer is classified using stages and grades. The stage indicates how far the cancer has spread. Each stage has three potential classifications:
· T refers to the size of the tumor. A small tumor is T1 and a large tumor is T4.
· N refers to whether or not the cancer has spread to neck lymph nodes. N0 means the cancer has not spread, while N3 means that it has spread to many lymph nodes.
· M refers to whether or not there are metastases (additional growths) in other body parts.
The grade of the cancer refers to how aggressive it is and how likely it is to spread. Tongue cancer can be:
· low (slow-growing and unlikely to spread)
· moderate
· high (very aggressive and likely to spread)

Causes

The cause of tongue cancer is unknown. However, certain behaviors and conditions can increase your risk, including:
· smoking or chewing tobacco
· heavy drinking
· being infected with human papillomavirus , a sexually transmitted disease
· chewing betel , which is particularly common in south and southeast Asia
· a family history of tongue or other mouth cancers
· a personal history of certain cancers, such as other squamous cell cancers
· a poor diet (there is some evidence that a diet low in fruits and vegetables increases the risk of all oral cancers)
· poor oral hygiene (constant irritation from jagged teeth or ill-fitting dentures can increase your risk of tongue cancer)

Symptoms

In the early stages of tongue cancer, especially with cancer at the base of the tongue, you might not notice any symptoms. The most common early symptom of tongue cancer is a sore on your tongue that doesn’t heal and that bleeds easily. You might also notice mouth or tongue pain.
Other symptoms of tongue cancer include:
· a red or white patch on your tongue that persists
· a tongue ulcer that persists
· pain when swallowing
· mouth numbness
· a sore throat that persists
· bleeding from tongue with no apparent cause
· a lump on tongue that persists
