Cystitis refers to an inflammation of the urinary bladder that causes difficulty in passing urine owing to which it can completely throw life out of gear for an affected person. The common symptoms of cystitis are painful urination, burning during urination, a constant urge to pass urine due to an inability to control the bladder, increased frequency of urination, and foul smelling urine. In some cases, the condition manifests itself in the form of fever accompanied by nausea and vomiting. Some patients complain of pain in the lower back.
Homeopathy can help wonderfully in cases of cystitis. Homeopathic medicines can successfully reduce the inflammation of bladder and alleviate the associated signs and symptoms.

Homeopathy uses the body’s own defense to combat the infection in cystitis cases and eliminate it from the body. Initially it provides symptomatic relief and gradually with complete course of homeopathic treatment, its symptoms resolves completely. Besides treating acute cases, homeopathic medicines also play a great role in preventing recurrent episodes of cystitis.

After noting down all the symptoms, the case evaluation is done by a homeopathic doctor. After this, the medicines are prescribed in required potency in specific dosage for every case. This well selected medication brings about wonderful results.

Causes and Risk Factors
Cystitis mostly occurs from bacterial infection that tends to gain entry from the urethra. The most important bacteria that results in cystitis is E Coli (Escherichia Coli). The incidence of cystitis is higher in females owing to their smaller urethra which makes it easy for the bacteria to enter the bladder. Other sources of infection could be through sexual transmission, and use of contraceptives. Long-term catheter use, chronic dehydration, chemicals in certain personal hygiene products, bubble bath, diabetes, enlarged prostate, kidney stones chemotherapy and radiation therapy to pelvic area are some of risk factors for cystitis.

Dr. Sharma,
I am a 63 years old woman in excellent health. My BMI is 125, so I fell good about that. However, I was diagnosed 2-3 years ago with IC. I have lived with the pain everyday. There are some days with no pain, but constant urination. But very few days. I get up every hour at night. Get very little sleep.
My doctor said I also have ulcers in the bladder. He wanted to go in and stretch the badder. I decided not to do that because of the ulcers. Was afraid of a tear or hole. At times Sometimes, I can barely walk from the pain. I also feel pain in my vagina. I am trying to find a homeopathic doctor here in Phoenix/Scottsdale. Looking forward to your advise.
I am 38, suffering from severe pain in penis radiating to right thigh and
leg since 2 years. Consulted 4 urologists, 2 Neuro Surgeons, Homeopathy
and Ayurvedic with no result. I have constant pain (stabbing, tearing,
cutting), irritation and burning in penis with urgency and frequency.
Undergone MRI,Doppler, Sonography, Cystoscopy. The results are negative.
Doctors say (not sure) it might be Interstitial Cystitis for which there
is no cure.I am helpless. Please help me and advice me.
dear, dr. SHARMA, i have cystis on my liver , is there a cure or homepathic treatment thank you
I am suffering from burning in urine, while passing urine, since two months. Initially i consulted a urologist and on his advise i got the urine examination done,including urine culture tests. results did not indicate any bacterial infection. Ultra sound scanning was also done of KUB to see if the prostrate is enlarged or not or for any calcification. Even the prostrate is normal and no stones were detected.
Later I have consulted a homeopathic doctor. It is around two weeks since I am on homeo medicines. I do not know the medicine given to me. The problem is still persisting.
A few days ago I took too many oranges for a couple of days. Since then there is a difficulty in passing urine. Some times it is drop by drop. I take plenty of water because I also having high uric acid in blood. I suffered from gout in toe , knee and chondritis. Homeo helped get relief from uric acid problems but the urinary problem is creating a lot of problem.
Please suggest me a suitable treatment.
dear doctor, I know you are not a vet, but I am sure you could help me help my poor dog. He has been suffering from recurring skin rashes on his stomach and between the legs where skin touches skin. Red, inflamed, itchy, smelly. The vet keeps prescribing antibiotics and cortisone, which is not resolving the problem long term and clearly not good for my dog. What would the homeopathic cure be? I have most remedies and treat my family homeopathically most of the time. I am really at my wit’s end and cannot afford to go on like this. My husband now wants to put the dog down. He is only 18 months old and a wonderful dog in all other respects. He was a rescue dog to start off with, so had a bad start. I have already taken him off dog pellets and onto raw meat, but this is not helping.
I would take your dog to a holistic vet. My dog had something similar, except it didn’t seem smelly. It was a yeast infection. He also diagnosed my dog with a beef allergy. The anti-yeast spray he has me use is Zymox. It really seems to help.
