Stomach Pain and Homeopathy

While it is true that spicy foods can aggravate an ulcer, they certainly do not cause them. Helicobacter Pylori that is a gastro-intestinal bacterium is supposed to be the one causing it. It is believed to be spread by physical contact like kissing or by consuming food/water that is contaminated. Certain homeopathic medicines like Argentum Nitricum, Nux Vomica and Kali Bichromicum efficiently provide the most satisfactory results in treating stomach ulcers.

The rice water will act as a demulcent which can provide relief if you are experiencing stomach pain. A demulcent is a substance that provides relief from inflammation, by forming a soothing barrier over a membrane. When it comes to your stomach, it serves as a protective film over the lining of the stomach, providing relief from the pain. You can also add a small amount of honey to it before drinking. Homeopathic medicines like Colocynth, Magnesium Phos and Nux Vomica are also effective in providing relief from such stomach pains.

When you consume spicy, fatty and high-fibre foods, it naturally takes more time to digest. If the food does not break down in your small intestine, it will move on to the large intestine where the natural bacteria that are present there will break them down. This process gives rise to gas, that eventually leads to bloating and pain in the stomach. Pumpkins have a lot of vitamin A that prevents all of this and promotes proper digestion, thus relieving you from the stomach pain. Apart from this, homeopathic medicines like China and Carbo Veg are very effective in treating a bloated stomach.

There is a layer of one cell between your small intestine (which is also 60% of the immune system) and stomach. If this layer breaks (can be due to excessive use of antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs, stress, alcohol consumption and infection in the intestine), the immune system gets exposed to foreign particles. This can trigger an allergy, mood swings and disorders of the bowel system. The pathogenic bacteria will move into the small intestine and start fermenting the food you digest. This bacterial overgrowth is one of the main causes of IBS. The best homeopathy medicine for treating IBS is Nux Vomica. Taking the medicine 4 times in a day can provide great relief from the painful cramps and frequent stools.
