Homoeopathic Treatment: Eradicating the cause is the basis of homoeopathic treatment. Treat the cause and the effect will disappear. This means, making the tissue healthy so that the immunity in the tissue increases and the tissue does not invite any bacteria or provide any nourishment to them.

How does Homoeopathy remove the cause? : Homoeopathy, is not just another method of treating diseases as in other therapeutic sciences like Allopathy, Ayurvedic, Herbal medicine, Chinese medicine etc. Homoeopathy is a science that does not depend on the diagnosis of the diseases. For most of the other therapeutic sciences treatment depends on diagnosis. Here the weightage is given to who is suffering, rather than what he is suffering from. This means when other sciences aim at treating Disease in Man, Homoeopathic science at the very inception, has been devised to treat the Man in disease.

What do we mean by treating Man in disease? : Any disease that occurs in an individual or for that matter any thing that occurs or exists in a person, is not without the permission of his genetic code. Whether it is the features on the face, the height, weight, physical structure that he develops over the years; whether it is the nature, behavior, mental attitude that he is supposed to express in face of difficulties and what he is supposed to like, dislike or not tolerate, virtually, every thing is governed by the blue-print on the genetic code. This also includes the diseases that he has propensity or predisposition to suffer. It goes without saying that certain predispositions may alter the metabolic activities and the defense mechanism within in such a manner that the individual throws up specific diseases. Contrary to the belief of contemporary science that Genes are responsible for only Genetic diseases (like Downs syndrome, Duchene’s muscular dystrophy, Thalasmic disorder) Homoeopathic philosophy strictly believes that even inflammatory disorders, growths or even destructions in tissues occur with the permission of the individual genetic code. Whether the inflamed tonsils are going to indurate and become large in size or ulcerate or have white casseous deposits, or pocceed to suppurate is governed by and dependent on the genetic code.

If the genetic code is so involved in the Physical Make-up, Mental Make-up, General Make-up and Disease Make-up of the person, then it is very logical that in order to eradicate a reccurent or chronic problem we need to address the genetic code. Thus in Homoeopathy we need to understand the patient as a whole if we have to cure diseases like chronic Asthma, Allergies, Hypertension, Diabetes, Thyroid problems etc. The limitations of the existing system of medicine that proclaims these diseases to be incurable (and only controllable), due to this very fact that it does not take into consideration the genetic source and give importance to Man as a whole. The effect is taken as disease and the effect is treated. In diabetes the treatment is aimed at controlling the sugar levels. In hypertension the aim is control of pressure. In high Cholesterol and Lipid levels or even uric acid levels the aim is to control the levels with drugs and diet control. Nowhere is the genetic tendency to increase in the levels considered. Thus they treat the Disease in Man and Homoeopathy Treats the Man in disease. That makes all the difference.

How do Homoeopathic medicines cure recurrent tonsillitis?
By improving the immunity or the resistance power of the patient.
