Dr Prriya Thakkar's Homeopathic Clinic

Hi friends!

Myself Dr. Priya Thakkar. We are going to talk about the most common problem that everyone faces, that is- Constipation. The frequency of stools varies from person to person. It could be one for somebody it could be 3 for some other. Even then it could be called normal. Constipation we would define only when the frequency of stool is less than 3 per week, the stools are dry, hard and difficult to pass. The most common cause for constipation is lack of fibre. With so many pasta and pizzas around, we are going to have constipation. Second is poor water intake. Third is the lack of activity or sedentary lifestyle. Fourth, certain drugs say painkillers, diuretics, certain antacids. These medicines also cause constipation. Fifth is pregnancy, which is one of the common cause in women. Due to hormonal changes as well as pressure which the enlarged uterus causes. That also causes constipation.

Then you have certain systemic condition like hyperthyroid, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, spinal injuries etc. These conditions also have one of the presenting symptoms as constipation. Next is certain bowel diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome or wherein you have cancer involving the bowel itself. These conditions also present with constipation. Last but not least is aging. Aging per se causes the muscle movement of the bowel to become slow, that again causes constipation. Now once we have looked into the causes of constipation, let's go into the solution. How can we handle it? What we need to do is- correct the causes.

That is you add fibre to diet, you have a lot of water in your diet. Then, you add a lot of activity in your daily routine. These things are must get the constipation corrected. With that, if you have some illness say if you have Hyperthyroid, get it treated. Anemia is also one of the common causes where you have constipation. If you have anaemia, get your anaemia corrected, the constipation will improve. So friends, unless and until you correct the cause, the presenting symptom is not going to get corrected. Now let's come to an important point that is why do I recommend homeopathy as compared to other alternative medicines that you have for constipation. The advantages with homeopathy are when you take homeopathy medicine say you have hyperthyroidism and you are taking homeopathy medicines, it will correct your hypothyroidism at the same time it will correct constipation.

And in certain cases wherein you have patient who have many other health issues definitely get off-medicines and at the same time off-disease. If you are having anaemia, you take supplements, you take homeopathy medicine, you get corrected with anemia as well as constipation. So homeopathy has that added advantage wherein the medicine doesn't continue. Once you are taking the medicine you are correcting the improper imbalance that is there in the system. You get off-medicine. I had this patient who is in his late 70s army man. He's been suffering from constipation for years together. In a month time, his constipation got corrected, his hearing got improved and he's off-medicines. So that is the benefit you have with homeopathy. So friends, if you have any issues, get back to me. You can contact me through Lybrate.

Thank You!

Hi friends!

Myself Dr. Prriya Thakkar. I’m practicing homeopath at Vashi, Navi Mumbai.

Today we would talk about homeopath and respiratory tract problems. Respiratory tract can be divided broadly into upper respiratory tract involving the throat and the lower respiratory tract involving the lungs. Respiratory tract problems normally present as nasal discharge, nose block,throat pain, cough. They can be allergic or infective. Allergic problems normally get aggravated with change of weather exposure to strong odors, smoke, things like that. Whereas infective problems they can come up any time. But one associated symptom is fever. This is more or less present in infective conditions. Once the word fever is uttered panic strikes the patient as well as the patients. They normally want to back out getting treated with homeopathic. But friendslet me tell you homeopathy works wonderfully with fever conditions as high as 103- 104degrees. Today I have some presenting videos which would explain to you how wonderful homeopathy works in this high fever cases. First is a girl child, she first came to me when shewas 2 years of age, she has recurrent tonsillitis and her condition was so bad that she was not getting well even with allopathic medicines. Even high doses of antibiotics were not working for her and she was advised to undergo tonsillectomy.as a last try she came to me to try homeopathy, if that wouldn’t work she would give up. This patient she recovered perfectly with homeopathic medicines. The another video is of two siblings, brother and sister both, the boy was 9 months old when he came to me and the girl was 3 and a half years old. Both of them again having fever as high as 103-104 always. But in the girl she always had upper respiratory i.e. the throat involvement followed by the chest involvement so she would present with freeze and things like that. Both of them are doing wonderfully today after so many years. There’s one more case which is allergic, this child is 2 years of age she came to me with constant cough for almost 2 months. Her mother tried everything under the son but the cough wasn’t good. This was an allergic presentation and she recovered totally well with homoeopathy. So friends any of your respiratory illnesses you can definitely contact me at Lybrate.

Hi friends,

This is Dr. Prriya Thakkar, I am a practicing homeopath at Vashi, Navi Mumbai. Friends this is my first interaction on this particular platform.

So I would like to start with something which is most commonly as to a homeopath. People come across and ask me mam, homeopathy kis cheez mein de sakte hain, kaun si problem mein de sakte hain, this is the most common question we come across. So friends, let me tell you homeopathy is a beautiful science, it can be used anywhere you like meaning in any of the disease conditions what varies is the role that it plays, say for example you have conditions like skin diseases, hair fall, respiratory problems, like cough, cold, fever, asthmatic conditions, GI disturbances, hair fall etc. these are the conditions wherein homoeopathic medicines can be used as a sole curator meaning it would be the only medicine which can be used to cure the condition. Then there are other conditions, like cancer you talk of Diabetic foot ulcer or you talk of accidents, cuts and bruises. Let me tell you about a case there was a young child boy of around 12 to 14 years of age, he just with his friends and one of his friend just pushed him and he bang into a pillar, now he injured his eye the eyelid on the outer end and he had a cut which needed I think around 1 or 2 stitches. Coincidently I was around the place and we applied local homeopathy medicines. There was no oral medications given whatsoever and he was dressed only with homeopathy medicines for a week and the cut just disappeared it were hard even to find where the injury had taken in the first place. So friends this is how homeopathic works, let me describe about one more patient this was again a boy of 10 years and he met with an accident, wherein he had a deep injury on the right lateral side of his leg at the knee joint and he had a real deep cut which had to be sutures around 17 to 20 sutures would given in that particular area. Then as the norm goes off all the painkillers, antibiotics and dressing were advised by the concerned surgeon. This patient again was a relative of mine, so what we did was we gave him some oral medication for the pain relief and healing and he was dressed only with homeopathy medicines. Within 15 days he required no painkillers no antibiotics whatsoever and the wound heal beautifully with minimal scarring. You have bruises say you have a bad fall with an injury you can create them with homoeopathy. Similarly accidental cases, cases of accident where you have fractured a particular bone you definitely need to go undergo plaster, you definitely need the initial mode of line of treatment given by orthopaedic surgeon but with that but you can do is you can give homeopathy medicines which help the fracture to heal faster, this is our homeopathy helps and plays a parallel role. Let me describe one more case, this is a patient this is was this was my first cancer patient which I handled this was a lady of 72 years old, she was diagnosed with Cholangiocarcinoma, the stage which was diagnosed was very late and she being a diabetic which was not under control doctor advised against chemotherapy radiation she had nothing whatsoever which we could do in that particular case. So the doctor suggested let us get a stenting done of a common bile duct, so that she doesn't develop jaundice and other complications, that was the only help they could give. They did that this patient for more or less throughout for a year in the hospital on a IV fluids, after a while she developed nausea, vomiting and lot of vertigo. Now the patient being known to me when to a homeopath and to a senior homeopath practicing somewhere in Mahim I was the moderator in between, she was under him for a while but the case was not improving and she was still suffering. Finally somehow the case landed up in my hand and I gave her a few doses of homeopathic medicines, the patient really improved when in terms of nausea and vomiting which stopped her vertigo, though she was in the bed she just couldn't turn around not even move her head and that also subsided. After a while say a period of around 2 months or so again this patient now she developed Ascites, Ascites is a condition where there is a lot of fluid accumulation in the abdomen and the only solution that you have is to aspirate this particular fluid from the abdomen, which is called the peritoneal tap. She underwent 3 sittings of peritoneal tap each time that tap being down around 2 to 21/2 litres was aspirated. Again I was called in, we gave her a couple of doses of homeopathy medicines and she was posted next day for the tap again. So next day she was again posted for peritoneal tap to the at a surprise of a gastroenterologist there was hardly any fluid which was aspirated say around 3 to 400 ml, that was it and friends I am glad to say that was the last peritoneal tap which underwent till that time she died.

So a friend this is how a homeopathy works, it is really wonderful how well you use it is all that matters.
