Curing Ulcerative Colitis With Homeopathy

ULCERATIVE  COLITIS

Ulcerative colitis is the inflammatory condition of the digestive tract. It is also classified under the inflammatory bowel disease. Ulcerative colitis is marked by inflammation in the large intestine (colon) and the rectum.It affects the innermost lining of the large intestine and rectum, producing ulcers. Loose stools mixed with blood are characteristic symptoms of ulcerative colitis.Weakness caused by recurrent bloody diarrhoea seriously affects of one’s quality of life and can also lead to life-threatening complications.

Homoeopathy has an effective solution for ulcerative colitis. It can (in the long run) control and cure even the severest forms of ulcerative colitis.An additional benefit with homoeopathy is the safety of the treatment; carefully prescribed medicines for ulcerative colitis do not produce any side-effects.The symptoms produced by ulcerative colitis depend upon the area in which it affects. When ulcerative colitis affects only the rectum (terminal part of the intestine), rectal bleeding may be the only sign. Some may experience a constant desire to pass stool (also known as tenesmus).

When ulcerative colitis affects the entire colon (also known as pancolitis), it
produces bouts of bloody diarrhoea, abdominal cramps, fatigue, weight loss
and night sweat.The most dangerous form of ulcerative colitis is called fulminant colitis. This is a rare but life-threatening complication. It affects the complete colon and can produce severe pain the type of diarrhoea. That can lead to dehydration and shock.Another complication that can occur in this type of ulcerative colitis is that the colon can rupture and produce what is called toxic megacolon.This occurs when the colon becomes severely distended. In all forms of ulcerative colitis, the chances of developing anaemia are high, as diarrhoea and blood loss is regularly present.

It is not clear how ulcerative colitis occurs, but researchers believe that our immune system has a lot to do with its occurrence.They believe that there could be two ways in which our immune reactions causeulcerative colitis.First, the immune reaction targets a bacteria or a micro-organism in our gut, and ulcerations are a fallout of the immune cells destroying the micro-organisms.The second could be a purely misdirected immune reaction where the cells that line our colon and rectum get targeted (by mistake) by the defence cells.

Homoeopathic medicines can be of great help in treating ulcerative colitis. As it is a symptom-based system of medicine, the choice of medicine for ulcerative colitis depends totally on the individual symptoms of the patient.The most commonly used homoeopathic medicines in the treatment of ulcerative colitis are Merc Sol , Merc Cor, Nux Vomica, Sulphur, Phosphorus, Hamemelis, Ferrum Phos and Ferrum Metallicum.Merc Sol leads the table and is very useful for a classical case of ulcerative colitis; where the symptoms are of bloody slimy stool with a strong and constant desire to pass stool and the “never get-done” feeling is present.Hamemelis is useful in controlling the bleeding aspect of the disease. Ferrum phos and ferrum metallicum are useful for correcting anaemia ( low hemoglobin levels in blood). Medicines should, however, be used only under professional guidance.

    Sir, I called you a few days ago about my son who is almost about 12 years old. He has had a full analysis of his condition and it has been confirmed that he has ulcerative colitis. He goes 2-3 times to the toilet everyday and passes a slimy and bloody stool with mucous. He has no pain but can you please recommend a homeopathic cure to stop his frequent visits to the toilet and his bloody stools. He has not taken any medicine for 3-4 months now if this helps.

    my husband is having a colitis (Proctitis) ulcer flare up. He is going to bathroom 6 to 8 times per day. There is blood like fresh blood in his stool. I am giving him mer cor 200 & nux vom 200 But he is not improving. Please help.

  21. Dina Kesmodel says:

    Dr. Sharma-

    Please let me know if I am giving my 10 yr. old , with left sided colitis the correct treatment. During a flare up, her symptoms are as follows:
    *watery stool with blood and sometimes mucus
    *joint pain in the legs mostly, even at times when her stool i fine
    *just recently, a first time occurance of severe pain in her left him socket/joint

    We have discovered that oranges and apples, (we think strawberries and bluberries, although we have not tested these two), cause her to begin bleeding, from a period of remission, upon ingesting.When she does begin to flare, we usually cut out wheat and other suspicious culprits from her diet, though she can eat wheat/gluton and not BEGIN bleeding when eaten in an already remissive state.

    That said we have been treating her with the following:
    *high intake of probiotics
    *fish oil
    *homeopathy: phospherous, ferum phos, and others with antiinflammatory components/benifits.

    A main concern of mine is that we only treat with homiopathic meds when flaring, and actually dwindle from the others when in remission also…

    -SHOULD I BE GIVING HER THE TREATMENTS IN OR OUT OF FLARE/REMISSION?? AND
    -WHAT MORE SHALL I ADD OR TWEAK GIVEN HER SYMPTOMS?? FINALLY,
    -DOES HER DIET PLAY AN EXTREME ROLE(though I do believe it does), and WOULD IT BE BENIFICIAL TO FOLLOW A BLOODTYPE DIET??

    Please help me to cure her and become another one of your success stories.
    Much love and gratitude.

    sincerely,
    d. Kesmodel
