The ABC Homeopathy Forum
Swelling & Pain in Joints
I need help to remove the pain in my legs and hands joints. A little about my background. I have birth to my son in 2005 in India. After the C-Section the doc gave me 12 bottles of IV . This made me sick. When I got up the next day my body was all swelled up. After 3 months I climbed few stairs and the next day my entire body was aching. I came back to Us. gave birth to another child in 2010.I still have swelling in my elbows and knees and it pains when I do some work. Is it water retention? if yes, can you please suggest some medicine for me?
Thank you very much for the help

Dear Doctor,
I conceived very late. My first child was born when I was 39 years ago. Second child 2 years after that. By the grace of God both are healthy.
During the first pregnancy I noticed that my hair started becoming grey very fast. and also I had severe shortness of breath. Shortness of breath is not there now but hair is all becoming grey fast.
Severe body pain because I was breast feeding my son for 8 months with out taking calcium. I am taking calcium now.
But what worries me is the swelling in my elbow and in my knees. No swelling elsewhere.
Thank you for reading my post

When was the last time you got a complete physical check up. Do you have blood test CBC report.
How much milk/dairy do you take daily and how much time do you spend in sun daily.
If there is an underlying problem due to lack of balanced eating, no amount of medicine can correct it. So lets first make sure you are eating right, getting enough sleep and rest.

Dear NishaLA,
Just to make clear, posters should know who they are talking to.
You can do that by clicking a posters name and see their
profile. Fitness is an engineer, self taught in homeopathy.
The Moderator has posted a line at the top of the forum saying
Posts are not from Medical Professionals. Actually there are
no real MD's on this forum. There are some real Homeopathic
doctors. It gets confusing when people start addressing people
as doctors as other people then think those people are
real doctors.

To select a homeopathic remedy for any health problem, the patient has to be like an open book. As if talking to oneself and alone. Explain with detail what your problems are. Example answers are given in front of the questions. Please take guidance from these examples and reply in detail accordingly.
1. What are the symptoms of your health problem (example answer: Swollen & painful joints of elbow, knees and wrists. All others ok)
2. What makes the problem better or worse (the swelling gets less when I sleep or eat meat, it gets more when I walk. The pain gets worse when I massage or apply heat. The pain & swelling gets better when I .)
3. How do you feel emotionally (I feel sad & depressed. Think about all bad things happened in the past. I like to be alone all the time. I like to be with friends ..)
4. Describe your personality (I am a headstrong person, very suspicious of others, very strict about discipline . OR I am a messy person, not interested in cleaning. Dont bathe for many days ..)
5. What occupies your mind mostly (I do a lot of daydreaming, I think about romantic getaways all the time, I keep making plans for things and never do them .)
6. Do you normally feel hot or cold (normal but I like winter more. I keep wearing light clothes in winter even ..)
7. What foods you love & hate (I like fried foods and hate slimy foods. I like sweets more than anything else. I hate chicken and love eggs .)
8. How is your thirst (I am thirsty all the time and even after drinking ice cold water remain thirsty)
9. Any coating on tongue (some white coating on edges only)
10. Any skin problems (not now but all my life I had eczema on my arms for which I used allopathic creams)
11. Any problems with respiration (nose, chest, throat) ( I snore a lot when sleeping and sleep with open mouth)
12. Any problems with stool/urine (I have severe constipation and the stool is always like balls )
13. Any sexual problems (I have no interest in sex, I have late periods always and are painful, with a lot of backache.)

Hi Nishala
A few more questions:
1. Does the joint pain get substantially better when you are moving about. I gather from your post that its worse at the start of motion. Also how does the pain respond to warmth and cold and massage.
2. Why do you have disturbed sleep. I see no mention of your husband in any of your posts?
3. Do you feel homesick when you say you miss your parents.
4. What taste in food you like, salt, sweet..?
5. How is your thirst? a lot or very little or normal.
6. Explain urge to go to bathroom. Is it for stool or urine.
7. Were your periods on time or late or early. Any clotting. What is a uti device, are you referring to iud contraceptive?
8. Where do you get cramps while doing physical activity.
Thanks

You have to follow one person. Two people do not work together on

Good advice indeed.
She has to see who has thoroughly reviewed the case and then given any advice :)
And, give the basis of repertorization so that every homeopath & novice can see the reasoning of how to do it right!

i will have to log in to observe the progress of all the cases you will deal with to gain more experience,with your repertorization and the line of treatment you take. i will become wiser,and hope to get rid of problems in a jiffy.hope you dont mind.
♡ anuj srivastava last decade
I too am learning for the last 20 years or so.
The only difference is, I am open and fully transparent.
My prescriptions & their basis can be judged by anyone at this forum and i can justify the reasons in a logical debate.
To do this, you must first have the confidence in your skill set and be willing to be challenged.
Unfortunately, some of the posters feel threatened by this approach.

then why dont you exercise your intelligence in repertorization,a word with which you are obsessed with to take up new cases and prove your skills to the very intelligent people out here..
♡ anuj srivastava last decade
Nisha,
this has nothing to do with your actions. Most people who
come on here and have multiple advices think that those
people are collaborating.
Actually, no two homeopaths really ever come up with the same
prescription. And this is an open forum, anyone from anywhere,
can pop in and say things on your thread. So you have to
decide who you are going to follow and then do that.
