HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT FOR FOUL BREATH

In the daily practice of medicine, complaints about offensive mouth odor are frequent. It mostly affects people who socialize with other people frequently. Most often, friends and relatives will notice bad breath, but occasionally the person with the bad breath will discover it on their own and visit the doctor. A lot of bad breathers experience sadness, which makes them withdraw from society and limits their activities.

The anaerobic bacteria in the mouth break down the protein in food waste. Bacterial activity can cause the release of some gases, such as hydrogen sulfide, skatol, and others, which can result in offensive odors. Bacterial growth is facilitated by the formation of a thin, sticky membrane on the tongue. Additionally, bacteria can be found in tooth cavities, dental pockets, tonsil crypts, and other places. foul breath is linked to various conditions such as dental caries, gingivitis, tonsillitis, tonsillar plaques, eating habits, water consumption, chewing tobacco, stomach and liver illnesses, and more.

German physician Dr. Samuel Hahnemann is credited with introducing the homeopathic medical approach. Instead of treating diseased organs or portions of the body, homeopathy treats the sick person as a whole. For a long-term cure, a person's social, emotional, mental, and physical well-being are taken into account. According to this philosophy, every person possesses an unseen force called vital force, which can become deranged and lead to ailments. The vital force preserves the balance of the mind, body, and soul in a healthy state. The man will have typical feelings and operations. Signs and symptoms are the exterior manifestations that occur when the vital force is disrupted. Unbalanced bodily activities provide foreign organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, etc.) with a place to live and multiply, leading to the development of diseases. According to homeopathy, the true reason for a sickness lies beyond bacteria and viruses, hence treating the underlying cause is necessary for a long-term recovery. Only the aforementioned secondary reasons are eliminated by the antibacterial and antiviral medications.

Toxic morbific agents known as miasms—dynamic effects that alter the vital force—cause diseases. Three main types of malaria are PSORA, SYPHILIS, and SYCOSIS. Although recognized by several medical schools, these three reasons go by different names.

names. Psora results in disruptions to function, syphilis leads to structural alterations in the form of ruins, and sycosis results in modifications in the form of overgrowth. These three miasms can function separately or in concert to cause various illnesses.

It is simple to treat foul breath with homeopathic medicine as long as the right remedy is administered at the right dose. There are 140 homeopathic medications listed for poor breath in Dr. Robin Murphy's homeopathic medical repertory. Therefore, treating foul breath with a single medication might not be effective. Our ability to accurately diagnose and treat a patient's condition depends on knowing their symptomatology. It is the entirety of a person's symptoms, encompassing basic mental, bodily, and specific symptoms, among others. One classifies bad breath as a general bodily symptom. Even though it originates only from a portion of the body, it impacts the person as a whole.

Physical general symptoms include those about thirst, hunger, bowel movements, and other areas.

Every indication and symptom (physical and mental) of the individual is recorded in detail. Information regarding past illnesses, family medical histories, dietary and bowel habits, sensitivity to climate change, constitution, and other topics are recorded methodically.

Physical signs and symptoms:

Examples include bodily composition, thirst, hunger, aversions, bowel movements, urination, sleep patterns, taste perception, and the ability to release unusual feelings such as pain, burning, temperature fluctuations, and so forth.

Odd and peculiar symptoms:

This is the homeopathic medical system's area of expertise. These symptoms are crucial in helping choose an appropriate treatment. The most frequent symptoms are those that virtually all patients experience.

specific/local symptoms and indicators:

This includes bodily part and organ-related indications and symptoms.

Examples of conditions taken into consideration are coatings on the tongue, the kind of mucous membrane in the oral cavity, tonsils, gums, teeth, ulcers, discolorations, etc.

Comprehensive and universal physical assessment:

Several systemic diseases can cause bad breath. Therefore, every system and part from the head to the foot should be checked, including the respiratory, digestive, neurological, and cardiovascular systems.

preliminary disease diagnosis: illnesses that are likely to occur are identified here. In homeopathy, the diagnosis of an illness is necessary for general care and prognosis but less crucial for choosing a remedy.

This covers laboratory testing as well as other techniques to identify any more serious conditions.

                                                                                                                          

Corrective diagnosis:

When it comes to homeopathy, this is the most crucial section. To do this, the chosen symptoms are ranked in a methodical order according to significance.

To determine the significance of each symptom for the choice of treatment, symptoms are analyzed. The selection of remedies is based on similarities. The fundamental tenet of homeopathy is "similia similibus curenter," which translates to "like cures like."A medication that causes certain symptoms in a healthy man may be utilized to treat a diseased person's symptoms. Every homeopathic medication is tested on healthy individuals, and the symptoms gathered during this procedure—drug proving—are documented in the material media.]

A procedure known as repertorization is used to identify appropriate solutions. Books referred to as repertories are utilized here. A repertory is a list of symptoms found in materia medica, or books that list pharmacological symptoms. These days, computer software is employed for theater repertory. Through this method, we will obtain the remedies that address all of the patient's significant symptoms.

Among these therapies, the best one is chosen by consulting several books and the patient's medical history. The chosen medication is administered at the right dosage and potency.

Protection Against Miasmatic:

Miasms are the primary cause of sickness, and appropriate anti-miasmatic medications should be used to remove them. If the symptoms are comparable, all drugs can eliminate the miasm. Anti-psychic, anti-syphilitic, and anti-psychotic medications are available. To finish the cure, an appropriate anti-miasmatic medication must be used after the miasm has been diagnosed.

Homeopathic medicines are made from a variety of materials, including minerals, plants, animals, poisons, sick tissues, etc. These materials are turned into medicines using a unique procedure known as potentization. Here, the insoluble chemicals are ground with milk sugar and the soluble substances are made more strong by diluting with spirit. The raw medicinal ingredient is first combined with a measured amount of spirit and then stored in water for a few days. Mother tincture (denoted as Q) is the extract that is extracted from this mixture. Potentization is used to create tincture dilutions from this mother. Potentization is a mathematical procedure wherein the original drug's therapeutic potency increases but its amount decreases. The various scales for this technique vary based on the ratio of drug component to vehicle (milk sugar or spirit). Every scale has a unique potency that represents the medicinal power. Example in 3x and 6x decimal scale. Potency is indicated after the name of each medication. 12x ect. in centisimal scale there are 30c,200c ect. in LM poteny there are 0/1,0/2,0/3 ect.]

The same medication is offered in several strengths. Appropriate potency is chosen based on numerous factors, including severity, depth of disease, patient condition, disease nature, symptom kind, patient age, and more.
