Rheumatoid Arthritis & Homeopathy treatment
Treatment for sustained relief and prevention of RA relapses, without any side effects. Courtesy: Dr. Anish Vaknalli
The precise mechanism which causes Rheumatoid Arthritis is unknown and is widely believed that a faulty immune response in which the immune system attacks the joints and organs causes the degeneration and destruction of the joints.
Our advice: opt for homeopathy as soon as possible
- Stabilize your immune system which causes RA
- Make your RA antigen test become negative
- Cure and prevent joint inflammation and stiffness
- Ensure better tolerance to triggers of RA
- Help in preventing frequent relapses
Rheumatoid arthritis is also a chronic form of arthritis, the cause of which is unknown. It usually manifests bilaterally, affecting joints on both sides of the body. Rarely, RA may occasionally affect the skin, eyes, lungs, heart, blood, nerves or kidneys. The disease onset, progression and duration vary considerably among those affected.
Viral affection and numerous environmental, hormonal, emotional and genetic factors are considered as triggers of the immune system. Approximately 2 million Americans have RA with a higher incidence among women.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) homeopathic treatment
Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic form of arthritis affecting the joints in the spine and the sacroilium in the pelvis. Larger joints like the knee can also be affected. It is initially characterized by pain and stiffness of the lower back, followed by severe rigidity of the spine due to fusion of the spinal vertebrae (bamboo spine). The pain may radiate from the lower back to the buttock or the back of the thighs in its early stages and generally increases on rest, and improves with physical activity.Causes: Ankylosing spondylitis is considered to be an autoimmune disease though the responsible autoantibody has so far not been pin pointed. App. 90% of people with Ankylosing spondylitis have a gene called HLA-B27.
Diagnosis: Approximately 90% of individuals express HLA B27 genotype. An x-ray or MRI will show changes in the spine or sacroilium. During acute attacks there is usually an increase in CRP (C - reactive protein) and ESR
Other symptoms: Inflammation of the white of the eye (iridocyclitis) causing eye pain and generalized fatigue are some common symptoms associated with Ankylosing spondylitis.
Stages of AS: Ankylosing spondilitis is regarded as an autoimmune condition in which inflammation of the ligaments and joints of the spine and sacroilium results in deposition of bone tissue. The tissue overtime fuses the bones causing rigidity and immobility of the spine and hip joints. The Joint degeneration and fusion is a chronic process and if appropriate measures like exercise, proper posture and homeopathic medicines are introduced early, the condition can be prevented from worsening.
Role of Homeopathy: Homeopathy plays a vital role in preventing progression, controlling the immune responses and ameliorating pain and stiffness as evident from the cases treated at our centres. Optimum results are achieved in mild to moderately affected patients, prior to excessive bone fusion. Most patients treated here were slowly weaned off their conventional medicines like NDAIDS, Naproxen, Sulphasalazines (SAAZ), Indomethacin etc as they were able to sustain either without them or on a very low dose regimen.
There are numerous homeopathic medicines indicated for AS some of which are: Kali Carbonicum, Radium Brom, Rhus Toxicodendron, Calcarea Phosphoricum, Aesculus hippocastanum etc. However, these are symptomatic remedies and will help in palliating or temporarily relieving the symptoms and may be used as the case demands. An ideal approach will be to prescribe a remedy on the basis of the totality of all the symptoms the patient presents with as the goal of the treatment is to correct the possible faulty immune response. This holistic or constitutional approach yields positive results in most patients treated at our centres and is strongly recommended for anyone suffering from this condition.
