Stomach Pain - How Homeopathy Can Help?

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.

Just like your brain, the stomach is a highly sensitive part of the body. Suppressing any negative emotion like anger can cause physical pain. It may sound weird, but people with anger management issues often suffer from stomach ailments. When you are extremely angry, the body shuts down releasing chemicals that are required for healthy digestion, thus upsetting your system. Intense anger can also release stomach acids that eventually lead to constipation, diarrhoea or cramps. Chamomilla is a homeopathic medicine that can be used to treat spasmodic stomach pain caused by anger.

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.
