Oral cancer also known as mouth cancer
Any cancerous tissue growth located in the oral cavity,it may rise as a primary lesions originating in any of the tissues in the mouth, by metastasis from a distant site of origin or by extension from a neighbouring anatomic structure such as nasal cavity.
Oral cancer may originated in any of the mouth and may be of varied histologic types teratoma from the tonslar or other lymphoid tissue or melanoma from the pigments producing cells of the oral mucosa.
There are several types of oral cancers
Mouth and lips tounge,it may also occurs on the floors of the mouth, cheeks,lining gingiva ( gums) lips or palate( roof of the mouth) most oral cancers look very similar under the microscope and are called Squamous cell carcinoma but less commonly aller types of oral cancers.
Causes
Tobacco usage
Alcohol excessive.
HIV
Diagnosis
CT scan and MRI scan.
Cancer of the tounge
It is important that the Physician should be able to diagnose Cancer of the tounge from Syphllis.The whole tounge may become very much enlarged. In taking the tounge between your thumb and finger it will feel hard and indurated, bleeds easily and has sharp lancinating pain that extends to the throat and base of the skull.
When there is well marked thickening of the tounge, I have given liquid Phytolacca in teaspoonful doses after each meal and added five grains iodide potassium.
Tincture Semervivum 7drops daily once .

Cancer of mouth and Throat.
In cancer of the mouth, the growth Will usually be found in the inside of the cheek or on the roof of the mouth.
In cancer of lips the disease may extend into the mouth From the lips.Cancer upon the cheek will sometimes destroy the tissue and make an opening through the skin into the mouth the disease then spreads over the inside of the mouth upon that side of face.
Cancer of the throat is curable if the glands of the throat are not much involved, if the patient is able to swallow food and medicines.if u place your fingers over the throat you can feel the swelling of the glands and size of them
.there is sharp shooting pain in the throat difficulty in the swallowing the breath is foul the tounge is coated a dirty yellow, underneath the yellow coating the body of the tounge has a dark red (  beefsteak)
Color .It is not difficult to diagnose this condition..I have met with a good many cases of this form of cancer, but many instances I have been consulted too late to render the patients any assistance.
Unfortunately our homoeopathic medical colleges do not teach the students how to diagnose the different forms of cancer when they see them .
Tobe contd.

Oral cancer 2

Oral cancer.  2.    Contd.
Doctor should be honest with his patients, and if he does not know what a thing is and cannot cure it should be manly enough, be honest enough to say so.The patients will respect such a dr.ten Times more than the man who guesses about what disease is, or tries to device his patients as some Drs.do.A Physician in a general practice sees but very few cases of cancer in a lifetime, therefore his opinion should be taken for just what It Is worth.When some of the leaders in the profession make such sad blunders In the diagnosis of cancer, what can you expect of the rank and file ?

Tiredness

Tiredness.  
Tiredness is disturbing because often it can not be explained, sometimes, however one, knows the reasons. Chronic tiredness may have underlying chronic diseases like anaemia, hypoglycemia (low bl sugar threshold) ,thyroid gland disorder or Diabetes or even major illnesses like Tuberculosis and malignancy. Once we know the cause it is much easier to tackle the problem.
Tiredness can't be termed a disease but a reflection of symptoms from within the body. There can be many reasons for it. Some physical and other mental. Being tired has killed no one,through it does prevent one from enjoying good health. Chronically tired people lack the  energy to do the things they enjoy doing.Hence they are irritable most of the time..
Once we know that there is no major disease causing the lethargy, then before starting any medicene the following action should be taken.
Fittenes diet.
Ten to twelve glasses of water should be consumed at different intervals, so also lots of vegetables, seasonal fruit, grams, peanuts a few almonds, oats porridge in the morning with milk or water and one or two glasses of skimmed milk. Eat small quantities at short intervals. Remember don't fill your stomach completely because in order to digest the food the blood supply to the stomach increases and you may, as a result, feel drowsy and lethargic and want to sleep.
Skipping meals doesn't help reduce wait effectively. People who skip breakfast are less agile and slow in their work. A well balanced healthy breakfast produce stamina.
Avoid or minimise the intake of high fat food like chocolate, fried food, sweets and too much meat. The intake of coffee and tea should be controlled because they contain toxic waste products like urea, Uric Acid, cholesterol and triglycerides which bring down the sharpness of body and mind.
This is potent weapon to combat tiredness. Walking, jogging, cycling, running and swimming are very effective aerobic exercises They help in increasing your blood circulation which brings nutrients and oxygen to the muscles and other organs of the body and sweeps away fatigue causing waste products such as Carbondioxide and lactic acid. Exercise not only evens out blood sugar levels, it also strength the body's energy generating machinery and recharges the mental processes..
You wake up one morning with a nameless pain in the calf, foot or any other part of the leg. It hurts more when you stand or touch it. You think you might have knocked it aganist some object, a table or another piece of furniture without knowing it,or you may have walked or worked much more than your normal practice. This may even be your daily morning complaint of feeling pain In some part of the body accompanied by general tiredness. Your body feels bruised and sore as if you have been beaten up and you just want to lie down and rest.
If you know your next day's programme is going to be hectic with more physical activities than your normal routine, take Arnica 200 , 5 pills four times a day. Take it one day prior to the busy day, on the day itself and the following day. This will help in keeping your physical fatigue under check, and even if you feel tired it will be bearable
Hard work and study cause burning along the spine with a dull throbbing headache. Such headache start From the base of the brain, going along the spine. The slightest excitement or mental exertion brings on the headaches, burning along the spine and weaknesses in the legs and the back. Picric Acid. This has proved to be one of the best medicine for brain fag. Picric Acid 200 C 5 pills four times a day is the treatment.
Fear causes tiredness
Fear causes tiredness, for example in students the Very thought of exams causes it, This fear brings on nervousness trembling, a feeling of dulnness , lethargy and drowsiness.
The student just wants to lie down and complains of extreme. sleepiness with a dull headache every time he wants to study.give Gelsemium 200 five pills four times a day, the fear subsides.
So does low blood sugar
Hypoglycemia means abnormally low blood sugar, for diagnostic purposes the blood sugar level is supposed to be less than 40mg per cent, but this figure is arbitrary. You may,in fact, experience symptoms of hypoglycemia even when the blood sugar is somewhat higher. The symptoms are exterme tiredness a low feeling, hunger, dull headache and a dry mouth. This can happen to a diabetic who takes insulin regularly, or if you have gone without food or drink for many hours. Certain drugs like sulphas, oral antidiabetic agents and aspirin can also cause these symptoms, so can large amounts of alcohol.
Treatment.
Take small meals more frequently, specially of complex carbohydrates like oats, bran Poha, fruits, vegetables and proteins, drink lots of water. Avoid sugar directly or indirectly in sweets, chocolates, etc, Saccharum off30, five pills four times a day, regularises the blood sugar level.
Arnica after mental fatigue
Dr. Margaret Tyler writes that a dr friend of hers was overfatigued mentally and physically and lost interest in his work. His usual self confidence disappeared, so that he began to doubt his prescriptions and wonderd, he had prescribed too much or even the wrong medicines he was never sure whether he had shut the door or had turned off the lights and had to go back to make sure By nature he was keenly alert and his change of mentality worried him. Arnica 1 m put him right in a few days, restoring perfectly both his memory and his self confidence.

Gallstones and kidney stones discussion

Gall stone or kidney colic Discussion.
In any case of gall stones or kidney colic you cannot tell if there will be more stones. When the stone has been formed, it is separate from the patient. When the patient is under the influence of pain, it is the spasm from the stone in the ureter, clutching of the muscles. The remedy that fits the Constitution has a tendency to prevent the manufacture of more stones and relieves the spasm that occasions the pain.
After the remedy there may be an outpouring of stones either renal or gall stones. In one case a teaspoon of stones were discharged in one or two days. The fibers were relaxed and the kidney was emptied of stones. This the remedy does when aimed at the patient. Often Belladonna' is indicated, it is not deep enough for the patient, but it is complemented frequently by Calc Carb or Calc Phos. When the picture is of Belle,will relieve the suffering but does not meet the condition. Nat Sulph will often fit the Constitution and relieve the acute trouble.
Nat Sulph or the Constitutional remedy, whatever it is, induces healthy bile formation. You cannot promise there will be no more colic if you fit only the condition. So long as stones are there, they may be passed. The Constitutional remedy is the best thing for the patient. It will set the kidneys to manufacturing healthy urine. There is no more to say about it, but it takes time.
You will not cure all old liver and kidney cases. The patient may be incurable and such will continue to manufacture stones They have too low a vitality. Sometimes the carefully selected remedy will hold the patient but ten days or so. Then the chances are against cure, and the surgeon can do no better. If the remedy hold long in a steady improvement and rouses reaction, he can be cured. The reason cancer and consumption cannot be cured in some patients is that the reaction does not hold up.

Do you talk in your sleep?

The medical term for sleep talking is somniloquy or parasomnia which, when translated means abnormal behaviour that occurs during sleep. The causes could range from harmless to serious health disorders and genetics. The talk can be a conversation with self or at times articulate speech.
Sleep time for rest and rejuvenation. IT is the time our body and mind takes to process, digest and recalibrate. While the conscious mind is resting, subconscious is awake. During sleep voluntary activities like the body like walking,stop but involuntary activities like the beating of heart continue.
The some causes.
Sleep deprivation when you haven't slept enough u need deep sleep to make up for the lost hours and this can lead to talking in your sleep.
Health issues long term illness especially fever makes you more prone to it.
Emotional problems an introvert nature combined with loneliness increases anxiety levels raising the possibility of expressing thoughts while being a sleep.
Stress it could be work related or personal but immense stress can trigger this problem.
Weight Those who suffer apnoea or those with nocturnal sleep related eating disorders ( where the sufferer might eat whilst in a state of sleep) show high incidences of sleep talking.
How to deal with it
Talking in a sleep isa natrul way of cleansing negative thoughts or suppressed emotions trapped in the subconscious mind says experts. It would help if the person experiencing this can talk to a partner or friend about their feelings without any risk of negative consequences, maintaining a sleep diary which helps in treating the condition. The diary should have details like time of to going to bed time of drifting off to sleep the time when u wake up.food and drinks consumed in the evening after maintaining this diary for at least 24 weeks a sleep pattern can be interpreted a family member can help with the sleep talking pattern .
When kids talk in their sleep
Parents finds their children talking in their sleep they are eager to find the cause for the same there is getway in the brain that shuts down when we sleep we don't walk talk or eat in our sleep.this gateway closes by the time a child is 3 to 4 years.however if the brain for some reasons keeps this getway partially open , it is receiving input that the mind and body are awake. The child experiences this if he is in a hyperactive state of mind or has not been able to express certain emotions during the day , however parents should know that sleep talking is not a medical or abnormal condition. Anyone be it a child or grown-up can go through this
However for parents who are anxious about their children being affected by this here are few tips .
Reduce intake of sugar for the child post ,7 pm since glucose makes them more energetic and alert.
Give the child your time focus, and energy through the day , talk to them beyond academics so that they can express themselves.
Teach children to clear their mind before going to sleep by throwing in an imaginary waste basket.under an expert Homoeopathic physician's guidence treatment.
If the Sleep talking is accompanied by night terror then Homoeopathy is the answer.
