Is a Fever for 3 days something to worry about?

Whenever a health person gets diseased, the body tries to overpower the disease of its own. It takes the disease head on. In the process it shows certain symptoms. Of many varied symptoms felt by a person, a fever or pain is the easiset on to detect by the person. According to Homoeopathy, fever for a day or a pain is not a disease. It is an indication by the body that something is wrong with the system (body). But Fever for three days is surely a cause of concern. Homoeopathy treats fever or pain as a symptom for an underlying disease. It will try to find out the underlying cause which is producing the symptoms of pain or fever. The Physician will ask the patient few questions what is known as case taking. He will refer to his Reportory to find out the medicine, which would be matching to his symptoms told to the physician during case taking. If the medicine is well indicated (that is rightly repotrised, an experienced physician does in seconds or minutes) that would be administered to the patient. The medicine will treat the underlying cause. And if the cause is removed, the symptoms (fever or pain or both) will automatically be removed.

How do you use friar's balsam?

Friar's balsam is a solution of benzoin resin in alcohol. You should avoid using it on wounds. The usual use is to remove oils so that bandages will stick. Since the questioner wanted to know if it was suitable for use on a small ulcer on his toe - diabetic on insulin, the answer is not to use this. Visit your podiatrist as soon as possible and take this seriously. A family member had a similar wound and after learning the process from the doctor, we used saline to wash it daily with medical grade saline, covered it with a saline soaked material (can't remember the name), put mesh with an oil emersion on it and then wrapped it in gauze. Since his circulation was bad, a pressure sock went over that. It took awhile to heal, but there was no infection. Another friend self-doctored his and ended up with MRSA. Again, visit your podiatrist as soon as possible and take this seriously.

Is a hot shower a good cure for a hangover?

Though taking a hot shower may help relax you, or a cold shower to wake you up, there aren't actually any definitive studies that prove showers will "cure" your hangover. Then again, some people truly swear by it... so to each, their own!

Can a homeopathic remedy show a false positive in a drug screening?

It's extremely unlikely, because of how homeopathy works (or, more accurately, doesn't work).

Homeopathic remedies (note that I am distinguishing them from "naturopathic" remedies, which in some cases can and do work) are made by taking an extract from ... something. It doesn't really matter what it is, because whatever it is is then diluted to the point that it may be statistically unlikely that even a single molecule of the original substance remains. Homeopathic "remedies" give concentrations like "10C". This means that the starting material was diluted by a factor of 100, and then a sample of that was taken and diluted by a factor of 100, and this was repeated 10 times for a final concentration of 100,000,000,000,000,000,000 times less than was in the original sample.

Couple that with the homeopathic belief that it works better the more dilute it is (many homeopathic remedies start off with things that are poisonous, so this belief is really a good thing ... it keeps homeopathy from actually killing people outright), and you should see why it's not likely that what is effectively sugar pills or water is going to cause a false positive for anything.

Even if the starting material was pure whatever drug is being tested for, it's unlikely that a homeopathic mixture with such a dilution factor would even register on the test, and even less likely than that if it was some other compound.

How bacteria are killed by homeopathic treatment?

They are not.


Possibly, some homeopathic medicines do actually have a physical effect. But most homeopathic medicines are placebos, they work through belief, it doesn't cure the infection but the person taking the medicine feels better because they believe that it is making them better.


Some homeopathic treatments are so diluted that they don't contain any active ingredient.
