SIDDHA MEDICINE IS "SAFE"

• There is a common question "whether treating with Metals & minerals are safe??????"
• No doubt, it's 100% safe whether administrated by a proper person.
• In modern medicine, each and every medicine prescribed by a doctor treat the patient safely,and the doctors care a lot about the dosage and the adverse effects of drugs for the well being of people.
• If a person takes self-medication in modern medicine, no doubt it will severely damage his Kidney or Liver.
• IN SIDDHA MEDICINE, 'properly prepared medicine', when administered by a SIDDHA EXPERT, heals patient without any harmful effect.
• It gives harmful effect to a person, when administered in a wrong way like SELF MEDICATION, WRONG PRACTICE,IMPROPER PREPARATION etc.
• "SIDDHA SYSTEM OF MEDICINE"IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE CRITICAL PROBLEM.

"SIDDHA CURE" IN 'LEUCORRHOEA' AND 'PELVIC INFLAMATORY DISEASES'

• Leucorrhoea or leucorrea, vaginal discharge is a universal problem of all women.
• Usually the normal secretions are slimy and slightly sticky. It is something like nasal secretion.
• The vaginal secretions varries throughout the menstrualcycle peaking at ovulation and also increasing when under emotional stress.
• In most of the cases it is not significant.
• It should be noticed if the discharge is 'blood stained' or yellowish in colour.
• 'Blood stained' discharge indicates pelvic inflamatory diseases or some serious malignant diseases.Yelloish discharge indicates some infection.
• Itching in the external genital region and offensive odour in the vaginal discharge also indicate some infection in the tract.
• Any way thorough investigation should be done in certain conditions.
• Untreated excessive vaginal discharge may lead to Pelvic InflamatoryDisease(PID) which is a chronic Utrene problem.

IN MY CLINICAL PRACTICE

• Lot of patients,with excessive vaginal discharge of different age groups are being treated in my clinic.
• First of all they are grouped in to Infective and Non-infective cases.
• Usually non-infective type is easily treated by special Siddha formulations.
• Siddha cooling agents,Haemetenics,Immuno modulators,Health promoting agents are administered accordingto the condition in non-infective cases.
• In Infective cases and PID cases,strong anti microbial agents are administered as per Siddha literatures.
• Both of the cases respond very well in Siddha treatment,but longer duration of medication is needed in the chronic infective cases.
• They may need 3 to 6 months duration for a satisfactory result.

ADVICE TO THE PATIENT

• Patients are adviced to take enriched timely food.
• Foods like 'Dry fish','Pickle' and hardly digested items are to be avoided.
• Personal hygene should be maintained without fail.
• Patient should avoid exposure to un-hygenic water like drowning in the rivers and ponds.

OUTLINE ABOUT "DANDRUFF"

• Dandruff is a common hair problem characterised by itching & scalling of white skin peals from the scalp.
• Dandruff is made up of small pieces of dead skin that peel from the scalp as a result of the effects of metabolism.
• The sufferers feel discomfort in the public placesand among friends as an 'image problem'
• There is still controversy in the modern research scholers whether dandruff is caused by 'fungus' or by 'excessive sebum production of the scalp'.
• Exact reason for this problem is not declared yet.
• Hormonal imbalance, poor health,poor hygiene,lack of rest,emotional stress,excessive consumption of sugar, fat, starch,improper nutrition,heredity predisposition are all said to be the cause for DANDRUFF.
• In fact, there is no established relationship between dandruff and loss of hair.
• Dermatologists treat dandruff with shampoos and some anti allergic drugs.
• Anti-Fungal agents and antibiotics also be used in secondary infections.

IN SIDDHA SYSTEM

• There is no specififc literature evidence about Dandruff in the Siddha system.
• But Siddha medicine plays very good role in treating dandruff.
• Internal as well as External medicine both are essential to treat dandruff.
• Siddha medicine respond very well and reduces the incidents of recurrances.

''KIDNEY STONES'' -A MEDICALLY TREATABLE DISEASE IN SIDDHA MEDICINE

• Kidney stones are small, solid masses formed when salts or minerals normally found in urine become solid crystals inside the kidney.


• Kidney stones are one of the most common disorders of the urinary tract and most painful condition of the urological disorders.


• They are usually painless when in the kidney but can cause severe pain as they travel from the kidneys to the bladder.


• An attack of this pain is called renal or ureteric colic.


• Kidney stone is a chronic disorder.


• It is usually silent for many years and suddenly causing it's typical pain which is excruciating.


• The clinical signs include-severe pain in the back,sudden abdominal spasms of pain,blood with urine,cloudy urine,increased frequency of urine,burning urination,fever and chills.


• The symptoms related Kidney stones differ with the location whether the stone is situated.


• The stone may be in the KIDNEYS,URETER,BLADDER,URETHRA etc.


• Calcium stones,Uric acid stones,Cysteine stones and Phosphate stones are commonly seen.


• Men are more prone than women, and around half of all people who had a kidney stone previously, will develop another stone within five years.


• Drugs like ''diuretics'',''antacids''and ''thyroid medications'', may induce kidney stones


• Eating a very high protein diet,Not drinking sufficient oral fluids,Regular dehydration(starvation also excessive sweating),Prolonged bed rest are also play important role in the stone formation.


• Treatment for Kidney stones in modern medicine include the following procedures such as Extracorporeal shock wavelithotripsy (ESWL),Ureteroscopic stone removal,Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).


• All of the above are done in the surgical theatres.

IN SIDDHA.....!!!

• In Siddha system of medicine Kidney stone is called as ''KALLADAIPPU NOI''.


• Siddha literature deals a lot about the origin of the disease and it's treatment.Preventive and curative treatments are separately dealt in the Siddha texts.

IN MY CLINICAL PRACTICE.......!!!

• I have treated a lot of Kidney stone patients successfully by Siddha medicine.


• 5mm size to 14mm stones were treated.


• Each and every patient is investigated thoroughly.X-Ray(KUB),Ultra Sound Scanning(USG) of abdomen and pelvis,Urine analysis,Blood Tests, and relevant investigations are done in the patients and then treatment is given.


• After a course of at least 3 months, Ultrasound test is repeated and the other tests are carried as per the condition.

RESULTS:

• In all of the cases, even in Grade-2 or Grade-3 'hydronephrosis'- rapid symptomatic relief is got within 3 to 5 days.


• Hydronephrosis become normal within 20 days in majority of cases.


• USG was repeated in 20 days in such cases with hydronephrosis and the clinical findings were observed closely to prevent serious complications like Uraemia etc.


• All of the cases were successfully treated and 'totally free' from their previous complaints.


• USG revealed normal reports in the later studies.


• It's a amazing truth....!!!


• I was failed in one patient out of all.


• The case,had stone in the lower Pelvis with 8 mm stone....which was not able to come out even after 5 months of treatment.


• But the good thing is that the patient have not suffered due to further pain attack.


• All of the patients were advised to take plenty of water (3 to 4 Ltrs/day) in their routine life to prevent further stone formation.

It's my kind advise that PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW the success rate of this case in SIDDHA and when ever surgery is indicated in such stones,don't neglect to try Siddha Medicine.......!!!

TREATING ALCOHOL ADDICTS with ''HERBAL'' ALCOHOL DE-ADDICTION DRUG.Doctor's Diary!!!

• This is my own experience in treating alcohol addicts with Herbal De-addiction drug at my clinic.
• I am sincerely sharing you about the drug action and the changes observed in my patients.

MODE OF ADMINISTRATION:

• The drug is in the form of ''powder'', and administered by mixing the drug with food particles,with or without the knowledge of patient.
• The patients who come voluntarily to stop alcohol by themselves,are getting very rapid results.
• They are advised to take the medicine regularly in the morning with milk or any health drink.
• ''Curry'',''Chudney'',''Coffee"' & ''Tea'' are the common vehicles for administration usually in the patients who are taking the drug without their knowledge.
• No taste or smell is felt in the drug and it is the only great advantage in the cases who are being treated indirectly.
• If the patient consume alcohol during treatment,vomiting or some unpleasant feeling occurs.
• The family members or the person who is responsible to the patient is already explained about this difficulty.
• After few days of drug administration, the patient use to leave their alcoholic friends and get a tendency to go their home in time.
• This tendency is observed mostly in all of the cases.
• Gradually in a short period of 7 to 10 days,the patient withdraw alcohol completely.
• In this time, patient feels very tired and seek the reason for tiredness.Actually the reason of tiredness is due to the absence of alcohol in the circulation.
• The patient is advised to take additional foods like FRUIT JUICES & VEGETABLE SOUP to maintain the energy balance.
• The respondent of the patient is strictly advised not to open the secret of giving drug to him.It will collapse all the above positive results.

• It is advised to take the medicine as prescribed without fail.
• If the medicine is properly administered,NO DOUBT WE WILL GET 100% RESULTS.

PREVENT HEART DISEASE??? - DON'T MISS TO DIAGNOSE RHEUMATIC ARTHRITIS!!!!

• Untreated childhood joint disease such as Rheumatic arthritis is one of the major cause for many heart valve surgeries in our country.
• Rheumatic Arthritis is a bacterial disease which can occur followed by an untreated Group A streptococcal (bacterial)throat infection.
• Usual victims are children aging 6 to12 years.
• In acute attacks pain is severe,and the patient is not able to walk even to the toilet.
• After a severe painful attack, a period of full recovery is felt by the patient for some months or years and even some patients forget their previous severe painful attack
• .In this silent period,the disease is developing within the body and slowly damages HEART mainly the valves.
• During the first pain attack,patient consult the near by hospitals.
• The patient is managed conservatively and advised for a blood test named 'ASO-Titre'to confirm whether the problem is due to "streptococcal infection". Erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),C-reactive protein, Total Leukocyte count & ECG are the relevant investigations.
• Unfortunately some patients miss to look for the investigations as per the advice of Physician.
• Lack of awareness in our country on this disease may be the cause for the negligence.
• The careless persons meet serious complications in their heart valves later.
• Since after 1960 this disease has been controlled in Western countries by the wide usage of antibiotics.
• Childhood deaths due to this disease was arrested in a short period by the western system of medicine.Continuous use of low dose antibiotics (such as penicillin, sulfadiazine, or erythromycin) use to prevent recurrence.
• In Siddha system of medicine this disease is described as "வளி-கீல்-வாயு".
• Diagnostic methods are clearly mentioned in the ancient Siddha literature.
• Various medicines are told in siddha literature, to treat the Painful conditions related with Rheumatic arthritis.
• Powerful medicines also told to prevent it's complications.
• SO, EARLY DETECTION IS VERY ESSENTIAL TO PREVENT SEVERE COMPLICATIONS RELATED WITH RHEUMATIC ARTHRITIS.
