In a recently completed study, Dr Edward Chapman of Boston?s Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital demonstrated that homeopathy significantly lessens the symptoms and improves the functioning of individuals with mild chronic head injury.
For what is now backed up by research are what homeopathy, for the last two centuries, have been trying to advocate ? that neurological problems arising out of injuries, either recent or remote, can be effectively treated with homeopathy. Not only does homeopathy help in treating the long-term effects of injury, but also it can help in stopping internal hemorrhage (bleeding) if the injury is fresh. It can also reduce swelling in the brain.
Assault on the head
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a term used to describe a sudden physical assault on the head that causes damage to the brain. It occurs in two types: closed and penetrating. A closed head injury occurs when the head suddenly and violently hits an object, but the object does not break through the skull (e.g. head hitting the dashboard in a car accident). A penetrating type is like a gun shot wound.
An injury can also occur in response to the shaking of the brain within the confines of the skull, an injury called “countercoup”. Shaken baby syndrome is a kind of a countercoup injury that is caused when the baby is violently shaken and the brain sustains injury due to the sudden violent shaking.
What kind of damage occurs?
As brain controls the whole body functions, the possibility of the damage that it can cause engulfs a wide spectrum of disabilities. Loss of consciousness, loss of motor power and/or sensation, loss or decrease in one?s cognitive abilities (the process of knowing in the broadest sense, including perception, memory and judgment) and loss or decrease in one?s speech, swallowing, etc, are usually the most common ones.
The impact of the injury causes the brain to move back and forth against the inside of the bony skull. The frontal (front) and temporal (side) lobes of the brain, the major speech and language areas often receive the most damage in this way because they sit in pockets of the skull that allow more room for the brain to shift and sustain injury. Because these major speech and language areas often receive damage, communication difficulties frequently occur following closed head injuries.
It is often very difficult to predict the damage or the nature of the damage in the first week, as the freshly injured brain undergoes swelling and bruising, and it is only after the swelling has subsided that the real residual abnormalities are detected.
The wonder of arnica lies in treating brain injuries, recent or remote, in the most natural and effective way. It is more of a head injury panacea. It helps in first controlling the bleeding in the brain and also in reducing the swelling in the brain. It has been found useful when years after the brain injury, symptoms related to it start appearing.
Neurological effects of injuries
The degree to which a homeopath can help is governed by two factors: by the extent of the damage , and the function of the brain that has been compromised.
Although quite a few of the effects can be handled by Arnica alone, the residual abnormalities do have a wide range. Homoeopathy has in its repository other effective medicines that are specific to certain conditions that arise from brain injuries. For example, there are separate groups of medicines for epilepsy, paralysis, memory and speech loss, etc, occurring after brain injury.

Hello,
My Father had suffered TBI on 15h FEB. He had undergone craniotomy on 16th Feb. he had subdural hematoma along left temproparietal convexity. He had his cranioplasty on 9th May. But all of sudden since last one month there has been a fluid leakage from the injury site. Epidural fluid collection(EPC) is seen in CT scan reports.. The neuro surgeon is suggesting for removal of graft . My father was on homeopathic medicines before and after his carniotomy since last 10 years. My query is there any option in homeopathy where in we could stop the epidural collection of fluid. The main fear is the pressure should not increase due to EFC

Hello my 17 year old son was in a car accident ,hit by an eighteen wheeler, on July 31st. He suffered a TBI and two separate hematomas deep in the center of his brain requiring two separate brain surgeries. Swelling continued and due to clots, he suffered several massive strokes in the brain stem. He then underwent a craniotomy to prevent the brainstem from herniating. He was comatose for six weeks, then sent home in a persitive vegetative state for recovery. He now is fully concious, eyes can open, can laugh, (right side doesn’t lift normally as the left) is fully aware with intelligence, personality, and memory intact. He can communicate yes by blinking rapidly. He is very slowly recovering movement, but basically paralyzed requiring complete care. He is starting to vocalize a little, can swallow a little, but only liquids. He is starting to be able to hold his head up for short times when sitting up. He has also recently been experiencing seizures which coincided with his skull and facial structure shifting noticably due to his always turning his head one direction. For the past month ,he has had difficulty urinating, with much straining and pressure and pain to the point of tears. Tests have ruled out any sort of infection or stones, and I believe it to be a urethra stricture from scar tissue due to the catheter or perhaps a tumor from all the radiation from the hospital stay. He did not have it until recently and it seems to be getting worse. I just ordered thiosinaminum 30c for that while we are waiting for an appointment with a urologist. Is there anything that can speed his recovery, help with brainstem healing and paralysis,and seizures and headaches? Please help.
