be taken for the three days prior to departure and for the duration of
the trip.
NUX VOMICA– Remedy for overindulgence in food and drink that brings on nausea headache and chilliness.
ALONG WITH THIS I HAD ALSO MADE LIST OF FEW EMERGENCY MEDICINE
The thing about emergencies is that you never know when one will arise.
So it is best to always be prepared, especially in this ever
changing world we live in. Having only a little homeopathic knowlege and
some basic remedies can make a huge difference in self care and the
care of others. In most emergencies the very first thing to do is ask
for help. This means offering a silent prayer for help from
divine sources as well as calling for help from ambulance, fire or
police.

selected for the intensity of conditions that may warrant the use of the
remedy. The 30C being acute and the 200C being a slightly stronger
expression. I have found these potencies to be the most useful in any

Common Health Issues for Travelers to India
Common Health Issues for Travelers to India
today every one wish to see India because of his variety of culture and spiritual aspect .travelers always face some kind of health problem As India is a developing nation, visitors need to
take special precautions against illnesses not normally encountered at
home. A trip to a doctor or travel clinic is recommended well in
advance of your departure date to ensure that you receive all the
necessary immunizations and medications. In particular, the following common health issues should be addressed.
1. Diarrhea
This very common travel ailment is encountered by many travelers and usually results from the consumption of contaminated food and water.
Some people also find that their stomachs and intestines don't
appreciate the change in diet or spicy food. It's a good idea to always
carry Oral Rehydration Salts, as well as anti-diarrhea medicine (such as
Immodium) in case you have to travel and won't have access to a toilet.

Preventative measures: Only drink bottled water. Avoid
buffets and only eat freshly cooked food that’s served hot. Be careful
of eating washed salads, fresh fruit juice (which may be mixed with
water), and ice. Meat eaters should avoid food from cheap restaurants
and railway station vendors.

2. Malaria and Dengue Fever
Both of these
diseases are transmitted by mosquitoes and are most problematic in areas
where there is stagnant water for mosquitoes to breed, particularly
during and just after the monsoon season.
They can produce some very nasty flu-like symptoms and fever. The
mosquitoes that transmit the diseases are different types — malaria carrying ones usually bite at night, while the dengue fever carrying "tiger striped" mosquitoes bite during the day.

Preventative measures:
As malaria is a bacterial disease, it can be prevented by taking
anti-malarial drugs. Dengue Fever, being a virus, is best avoided by
taking precautions against mosquito bites, such as wearing a strong
repellent containing DEET, as there is no vaccine currently available.

3. Hepatitis A and B
Hepatitis
is virus that affects the liver. Hepatitis A is contracted by ingesting
contaminated food and water, while Hepatitis B is spread through blood
and bodily fluids.

Preventative measures: Both Hepatitis A and B are preventable by a combined needle stick vaccination.


4. Typhoid
This
bacterial disease is usually transmitted by food or water that’s
contaminated with the feces of an infected person. It produces extremely
high fever, sweating, vomiting, and diarrhea.

Preventative measures: Typhoid is preventable by oral or needle vaccination, and treatable by antibiotics.

THATS COMMON PROBLEM WHENEVER U R COMING HERE . enjoy traving india with homeopathy .

HOMEOPATHY for Urticaria
Urticaria is not a very pleasant thing to have. patients are taking long allopathy treatment with steroids and all and when they come up to homeopath for it we have perfect treatment plan for it

LETS SEE what it is

URTICARIA
Synonyam
Nettle rash; Hives ; Weals.
Definition
Urticaria is a commonly seen clinical condition where there is a transient eruption of raised and circumscribed erythematous or oedematous swellings of the superficial dermis, associated with itching
There are a variety of its clinical variants seen, two of which are:
· Angioedema (angioneurotic oedema, giant urticaria, Quinke’s oedema) Consists of transient swellings in the deeper dermal, subcutaneous and Submucosal tissues. Urticaria and angioedema often occur together and for practical purposes are similar processes. However, the form of pure angioedema that is caused by CI esterase inhibitor deficiency shows some differences clinically and in response to treatment.
Systemic anaphylaxis is an acute life- threatening condition induced by an IgE- medicated allergic reaction. It consists of a combination of symptoms and signs including diffuse erythema, pruritus, urticaria, angioedema, hypotension and cardiac arrhythmias. A similar clinical picture from non- allergic causes is called a systemic anaphylactoid reaction.
Classification & Etiology
Urticaria can be broadly classified in terms of ‘duration’ or its ‘trigger factors’.
1. In terms of duration, Urticaria can be divided into acute and chronic forms. Acute Urticaria is usually self- limited and the weals commonly resolve within 24 hours, but may last up to 4- 6 weeks. In chronic urticaria the weals continue daily or on most days for longer than 6 weeks. Acute urticarias are more common in young adults of both sexes, whereas chronic urticarias are more commonly seen in women, in their fourth or fifth decades. A cause or trigger factor can be easily found in acute urticaria, as compared to the chronic form.

2. When classified in terms of trigger factors, it can be divided into:

a. Nonimmunologic or nonallergic or ordinary urticaria:

These are caused by degranulation of mast cells and hista-mine release by mechanisms not involving antigen- anti- body reaction. The most commonly seen causative factors of nonallergic urticaria are:



* Drugs: Anesthetics, angiotensin converting enzyme in- hibitors, aspirin and other non- steroidal anti- inflammatory drugs, codeine, morphine, penicillin, cephalospor-ins, sulfonamides and other antibiotics, diuretics, iodides, bromides, quinine, vancomycin, isoniazid and antiepileptic agents.

* Food: Chocolates, eggs, fish milk and products, nuts, pork, shellfish, strawberries, tomato, and yeast.

* Food additives: Hydroxybenzoates, salicylates, sulhites, and tartrazine.

* Inhalants: Animal danders, grass pollens, house dust, mould spores, new perfumes.

* Infections: Pharyngitis, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, respiratory, fungal (e.g., scabies), HIV and parasitic infections (e.g., ascaris, strongyloides, schistosoma, and trichinella).

* Systemic disorders: Amyloidosis, carcinoma, hyperthy- roidism, lymphoma, polycythemia vera, polymyositis, rheumatic arthritis (RA), and SLE

* Physical: Cold, exercise, friction, perspiration, pressure, and sunlight.

* Miscellaneous: Contact with nickel (e.g., cheap jewelry, jean stud buttons), latex, nail polish or rubber (e.g., gloves and elastic bands); emotional or physical stress; pregnancy (usually occurs in last trimester and typically resolves spontaneously soon after delivery); and recent use of new clothes, creams, detergents, or lotions.



b. Immunlogic or allergic or idiopathic or autoimmune urticaria: Genes

tend to play a role in a few urticarial conditions, where a strong personal or

family history of atopic disorders can usually be found. Angioedema and a

few rare urticarial variants can be of a hereditary type occurring due to a

CI esterase inhibitor deficiency.



Clinical Features

The urticarial lesions begins as itchy erythematous macules, which develop into weals consisting of pale-pink or red, oedematous, raised skin areas, of varying shapes and sizes, often with a surrounding flare. These usually transient and migratory lesions can form linear, annular (circular) or actuate (serpiginous) patterns, and can occur anywhere on the body in variable numbers. These wheals are generally very itchy, especially at night, but the patients tend to usually rub the part, rather than scratch and thus these lesions resolve leaving a normal skin surface, without any excoriation marks. In a number of cases, these weals are seen to get worse in the evenings or nights and also usually before menses. Urticarial vasculitis should be suspected if the lesions last for more than 24 hours.

Half the cases of urticaria are associated with angioedema, where large, non-pruritic or slightly itchy, non-pitting, pale or pink, diffuse swellings occur, especially on the face, affecting the eyelids, lips, tongue, pharynx and larynx, hands, feet, genitalia,ears,and neck. These lesions may last for several days.



In a few cases urticaria or angioedema can be associated with systemic symptoms like malaise, fever, headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, arthralgia, feeling of a lump in the throat, hoarseness, wheezing, shortness of breath, and syncope, and in its most severe acute from with anaphylaxis.



Diagnosis

Specific laboratory studies are not generally indicated. Instead a detailed personal and family case history is taken in suspected clinical cases, especially as regards to pervious attacks, and an attempt made to find out the trigger factors, through in more than half the cases no particular cause can be traced.

In few cases a fluoroimmunoassay may help in detection of food allergies undetected by routine examination and testing.



Differential Diagnosis

* Anaphylaxis.
* Erythema multiforme.



Treatment

Education on avoidance of the suspected offending allergen is essential.



In cases of angioedema or anahylaxis, timely emergency care needs to be taken in a hospital setting, with checking of vital statistics and checking for air flow in the respiratory passage, and if needed administering oxygen. In a few cases, intubation or even tracheostomy may be required, where there is laryngeal obstruction due to angioedema.



Homeopathic Approach to Urticaria

Homeopathy has maximum scope in the above condition, as modern medicine has nothing more to offer other than antihistaminics.

The following pattern should be observed most meticulously whilst treating the patient:

* Confirm whether the lesions fits into urticarial rash. The typical lesion should include a rosy – red, erythematous macule with edematous weals. The erythema fades on pressure.
* Time of aggravation. I have found a night aggravation more common.
* Dose urticaria alternate with any other complaint? Especially asthma or rheumatism.
* Always ask whether urticaria is preceded by any other symptoms like nausea, chill, menses, etc.
* Inquire as to which season the patients develops urticaria and at what temperature e.g. hot room, cold room, open air, near the seashore, etc.
* The most important factor that helps us to eliminate majority of the drugs is the patient’s feeling of wellbeing after an application of heat or cold.
* Try and find out which particular foodstuff aggravates the condition, especially shellfish, sweets, meat, chocolates, etc.
* Has the patient got any emotional stress?
* I have seen many patients of urticaria who have a history of worm infestation. Therefore one should inquire for any history of worms. Also history of insects bites or contact with any plants or ingestion of drugs like penicillin or salicylates.
* Sometimes physical factors especially exposure to sun, excessive physical exertion and exercise lead to urticaria.

All the above should be thoroughly scrutinized to get the maximum data. In very rare cases, patient may develop swelling of face with laryngeal obstruction. At that time the patient should be shifted to a homeopathic hospital and his airway should be kept clear with endotracheal intubation and oral drugs like chlorum, etc. should be administered

The treatment consists of not only giving the indicated homeopathic drugs, but to eliminate the offending agent e.g. eliminative diet, withdrawal of causative drug, treatment of parasitic infection, correction of the existing physical stress. During an acute attack the patient should be kept on a bland diet- alcohol, tea and coffee are preferably avoided. Finally reassurance should be given to the patients who have chronic urticaria.

Homeopathy For Freckles
Freckles are flat, irregular spots that develop randomly on the skin,
particularly on the cheeks. They vary in color but are always darker than
the normal skin around them. They are more prominent in persons of fair
complexion.
Causes of development
There are many different causes of freckles but one main cause is repeated
and prolonged exposure to sunlight. The exposure increases the production
of pigment melanin that gets deposited in certain areas of the skin making
them look darker but this does not happen to everyone because every person
is not equally sensitive to sunlight. Generally, persons with fair
complexion are more sensitive to sunlight than dark-skinned persons but
this does not mean that all fair-skinned persons are very sensitive or all
dark-skinned persons are completely immune to the effects of sunlight.
Anyone can develop freckles depending on personal sensitivity whatever be
the complexion. Nutritional imbalance and genetic factors may also cause
uneven distribution of pigment melanin resulting in freckles.

Risk factors
Freckles have a great cosmetic value particularly when they are on the
cheeks otherwise they are harmless and pose no danger to general health.
At times, however, they might be mistaken for another skin disease.
Therefore, one should have them checked and evaluated by the dermatologist
to be sure of what the spots are.
Prevention
Freckles are a fair indication of sensitivity of skin to sunburn and other
skin diseases of more serious nature. Those with hereditary tendency
should avoid prolonged and/or repeated exposure to direct sunrays. For
those whose nature of job does not permit this precaution should use
protective sunscreens to reduce the risk.
Treatment
There are plenty of products available in the market for external use,
which can reduce the pigmentation and lighten or even eliminate the
freckles.
There are products that can hide them temporarily but hiding the
freckles is not the answer. They must be treated properly.
Freckles can also be effectively and conveniently treated by internal use
of homeopathic medicines. This is one of those conditions that can be
easily treated in a few weeks.
Some of the commonly used homeopathic
medicines to treat freckles are graphite, kali-carb, lycopodium,
muric-acid, natrum-carb, phosphorus, sepia, sulphur etc.
but you must
consult your homeopath to choose correct medicine, its dose and potency
for you.

HOMEOPATHY FOR ACNE ROSACEA
What is rosacea?

Rosacea is a skin disease that affects the middle third of the face, causing persistent redness over the areas of the face and nose that normally blush -- mainly the forehead, the chin and the lower half of the nose. The tiny blood vessels in these areas enlarge (dilate) and become more visible through the skin, appearing like tiny red lines (called telangiectasias). Pimples can occur in rosacea that resemble teenage acne. In fact, rosacea is frequently mistaken for acne and is also referred to as acne rosacea.
Is rosacea like acne?

Rosacea is basically different than acne. Unlike common acne, rosacea is not primarily a plague of teenagers, but occurs most often in adults (ages 30 to 50), especially those with fair skin. Different than acne, there are no blackheads or whiteheads in rosacea.
Rosacea strikes both sexes. It tends to be more frequent in women but more severe in men.
What causes rosacea?

The cause of rosacea is unknown. Rosacea is more common in people who blush easily. Furthermore, rosacea tends to affect the "blush" areas of the face. Emotional factors (stress, fear, anxiety, embarrassment, etc.) may trigger blushing and aggravate rosacea. A flare-up can be caused by changes in the weather like strong winds or a change in the humidity. Sun exposure generally aggravates rosacea.
A mite sometimes found in hair follicles may play a role in the development of rosacea. The bacteria Heliobacter pylori (that is associated with stomach ulcers) and medications like vasodilators (that cause blood vessels to widen) have also been thought possibly to bring out rosacea.
What are the signs and symptoms of rosacea?

Rosacea typically causes inflammation of the skin of the face, particularly the forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. When rosacea first develops, it may appear, then disappear, and then reappear. However, in time the skin fails to return to its normal color and the enlarged blood vessels and pimples arrive. Rosacea rarely reverses itself. It lasts for years and, if untreated, it will worsen. Rosacea does not cause the blackheads and whiteheads that are in common acne.
What happens to the nose?

Untreated rosacea can cause a disfiguring nose condition called rhinophyma (ryno- fee-ma), literally growth of the nose, characterized by a bulbous, enlarged red nose and puffy cheeks (like the old comedian W.C. Fields). There may also be thick bumps on the lower half of the nose and the nearby cheek areas. Rhinophyma occurs mainly in men. Severe rhinophyma can require surgical repair.
What happens to the eyes?

Another complication of advanced rosacea affects the eyes. About half of all people with rosacea feel burning and grittiness of the eyes (conjunctivitis). If this is not treated, a serious complication that can damage the cornea, called rosacea keratitis, may impair vision.
How is rosacea cured?

Rosacea cannot be cured but it can usually be controlled with the proper, regular treatment.
What about using acne medicine?

Over-the-counter medications for acne can be a hazard; they can irritate the skin of rosacea.
What is used for rosacea?

Treatment involves both oral and topical medicines. Oral antibiotics (such as tetracycline) are commonly prescribed; the dose may be initially high and then be tapered to maintenance levels.
A topical (skin) antibiotic cream such as metronidazole (Metrocream) is useful to reduces the inflammation and the redness. Other topical antibiotic creams include erythomycin and clindamycin (Cleocin).
Short-term topical cortisone (steroid) preparations of the right strength may also be used to reduce local inflammation. Some doctors are trying tretinoin (Retin-A) or isotretoin (Accutane), prescription medications also used for acne, or permethrin (Elimite) cream, which is used for the mites that cause scabies.
What should be avoided?

Smoking, food (such as spicy food) and drink (such as hot beverages and alcoholic drinks) that can cause flushing should be avoided.
Exposure to sunlight and to extreme hot and cold temperatures should be limited. That will also help relieve symptoms of rosacea.
Potent cortisone medications on the face should be avoided because they can promote widening of the tiny blood vessels of the face.
How should I care for the skin of my face?

Rubbing the face tends to irritate the reddened skin. Some cosmetics and hair sprays may also aggravate redness and swelling.
Facial products such as soap, moisturizers and sunscreens should be free of alcohol or other irritating ingredients. Moisturizers should be applied very gently after any topical medication has dried. When going outdoors, sunscreens with an SPF of 15 or higher are needed.
