HOMEOPATHY FOR SPONDYLOSISOur spine is made up of
a number of bones known as vertebrae. Between two consecutive
vertebrae is present a cushion like substance-what we call intervertebral
disc. After the age of 20-25 years some changes start occuring
in the spine eg. some tiny growth on the vertebrae, increase or
decrease in the vertebral disc space, protrusion of the disc etc. These
changes may or may not cause any symptoms. But when they cause symptoms
like pain, tingling, numbness, stiffness, slipped disc the illness is
called spondylosis. Spondylosis can occur anywhere along the spine
but common sites are neck (cervical spondylosis) & lower back(lumbar
spondylosis). The symptoms occur mainly because the changes that take
place in the spine may cause compression of nerves. Symptoms are
mainly seen in people with faulty postures, people with long hours at
the desk or also due
to stress.No medicine can prevent the changes occuring in the spine
nor revert the changes that have taken place.What can be done however,
is treatment of the symptoms. Allopathic medicine mainly consists of pain-relieving
tablets which are very harmful in the long run if taken for a prolonged
period or repeatedly. They could cause acidity, ulcers, blood pressure
or even kidney damage.Homeopathy cures the symptoms without any side-effects
or damage. Along with homeopathy hot fomentation, shory-wave diathermy
& traction done by a physiotherapist could be very helpful.In cases
of slipped disc bed rest for a few days or weeks as advised is an absolute
must. Besides, the benefits of regular exercise need no mention.
Some of the common homeopathic medicines / remedies for spondylosis are: Arnica,Cimcifuga, Bryonia, Rhus tox, Hypericum, Calcarea fluor etc |
