HOMEOPATHY FOR RENAL STONES (KIDNEY STONES)There
are many theories as to the cause of kidney stones. It could be due to
infection following which some pus cells & bacteria etc clump together
to form stones, or some disorders which cause the amount of calcium &/or
phosphorus in the blood to increase, or prolonged periods of bed rest
due to illness or parathyroid disease. It is difficult to say which theory
is the most accurate. However there are 3 types of renal stones
namely calcium, phosphorus & uric acid stones. They could be
asymptomatic & exist for years without the patient being aware of
them or cause symptoms in the form of severe pains extending
from the back to the lower abdomen in front with painful urination &
at times there is only a dull pain at the back overlying the region of
the kidney. Their diagnosis is confirmed on Urine test & sonography.
They could be very small to begin with, but over the years could
enlarge considerably affecting the kidney function & causing a portion
of the kidney to be swollen or enlarged besides leading to an increase
in blood pressure. They could even cause repeated episodes of severe
pain & blood in the urine. Hence it is best to treat them when
they are small & can be excreted through the urine. Once
the complications set in, the treatment is either surgery or lithotripsy
wherein the stones are broken into small pieces by laser so that they
can be excreted throught the urine. However the possibility of recurrence
is always there. Allopathy offers no treatment in the initial stages when
the stones are still small. But homeopathy has a very good scope
of dissolving them & preventing recurrence.
Common homeopathic medicines / remedies for kidney stones are: Cantharis, Berberis vulgaris, Lycopodium, Lith carb, Oxalic acid, Colchicum, phosphoric acid etc. |
