Attention Deficit Hyperactive disorder ADHD
It is estimated that about 3-5 percent of all kids, have this disorder. Also the most unfortunate thing is that in many cases this disorder goes totally undiagnosed .The child is often mistaken as hyper-energetic kid or as just being more playful, but the reality is that many such kids suffer from a medical disorder known as Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder or ADHD.
It is a common belief that only kids showing signs of physical hyperactivity have some problem related to this disorder. Well, this actually it is not the complete truth. Symptoms of consistent inattentiveness are also associated with this disorder. It is characterized by hyperactivity (physical), inattentiveness, and impulsivity
ADHD is a medical disorder which usually becomes evident in the preschool years or early school years. It is characterized by hyperactivity (physical), inattentiveness, and impulsivity
Kids having ADHD usually depict either of three patterns of behavior. Either they are more of the hyperactive type, which means that they are more physically hyperactive (constantly moving jumping running fidgeting squirming, having difficulty sitting in one place etc) or the ‘inattentive type’ (having difficulty in concentrating, easily distracted) or the ‘combined type’ (having symptoms of hyperactivity and inattention both).
Not all children who run and jump too much suffer from ADHD. It is very important to realize that for a child to be diagnosed with ADHD, certain criterion has to be met with also called as the DSM criteria, before a child can be said to be suffering from it.
Nobody exactly knows what causes ADHD. Recent researches point out the causes could be either neurobiological or genetical. Certain chemical levels in the brain have been found low (dopamine -a chemical that sends messages to the part of the brain involved in attention, movement and motivation). Increased levels of heavy metals (lead) in the body is also seen in some kids .The kind of parenting given to the child has no role in the causation of this disorder, although bad parenting can influence the severity of this disorder.
Implication of ADHD can have far reaching effects, with the schooling of the child taking the biggest hit. Poor performance in school due to ADHD can lead to a hampered self esteem in the child .ADHD can also lead to learning disabilities, defiant behavior ,conduct disorder(anti-social behaviour,stealing ,fighting), anxiety disorders and depression .
Severe forms of ADHD are difficult to differentiate from milder forms of autism, a careful approach is necessary in diagnosing and treating such forms. Such severe forms affect the child?s normal mental development .for example speech and cognitive skills can be markedly affected in such cases.
Homoeopathy for ADHD
Homoeopathy for treatment of ADHD is now being considered as an effective form of treatment in the western society where the prevalence and awareness of this disorder is much more. This is more so because of the great side effects produced by the medicine used in conventional system.
The safety and the lasting effects of homoeopathic medicines is what makes it as an effective choice. Homoeopathic medicines do not produce any sedating effect on the child. Also the improvement gained during the treatment is lasting. While treating the symptoms of hyperactivity and inattentiveness, homoeopathic medicines promote the overall brain development too. Another important aspect in homoeopathic treatment is that homoeopathy sees every case of ADHD as an individual case .This means that the medicine prescribed would be on the basis of the individual symptoms shown by the child. This approach in homoeopathy, gives it an advantage of treating the disorder naturally and effectively.

Hello Dr. Sharma
My son (Ehsaas) is going to be 7 years old in end Dec 2017. He is in Grade 2 right now. He is an intelligent and a caring boy but I always get complaints from the school that he is distracted and does not complete his class work. On the other hand, when I sit with him for his homework , he will do it nicely but I have to keep repeating the appreciation and praise him. He scores above average in his tests but cannot focus in the class and all the teachers have been giving the same feedback. However, he is very emotional and needs attention and praise all the time. From the childhood, he has been a bit negative about things and mostly talks or reacts pessimistically. He will just cry for simple things ( like if we say no to him for a sweet , toy or playing on the screen) I am a very positive person and have been through many hardships in life and have been strongly able to manage my life and also sure that this problem will also get sorted with little effort.
When I am working with him at home , i notice he is playful and gets distracted easily, and I need to continuously praise him to get the work done out of him( especially studies). He is fond of cars and video games, likes to clean and cook in the house( although , I dont allow him much). FYI, I have a daughter who is 3+ and very crisp and confident in her approach.
Please can you guide on how to increase his focus and how to remove this tag of a distracted child from him.

Hello Dr. My son seems to have some difficult issues that have been going on for a few years now. He stutters, says I’m sorry repeatedly as well as cries when I even mention homework. His Dr diagnosed him with ADHD but I don’t see it. Yes I think there is a learning disability but I don’t see the hyperactivity. I am desperate to know what is wrong with my son & if you think your product will help him. I would appreciate your prompt reply.
