Lung Cancer - How Can It Be Dealt With Homeopathy?

Lung cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in the world. While smokers and people exposed to chemical fumes and asbestos have a high risk of suffering from this type of cancer, it can affect anyone. Lung cancer can be described as cancer that develops in the lungs. In its early stages the tumor is restricted to the lung and chest cavity. If left untreated, it can spread to other organs of the body and can be life threatening. Thus it is essential to begin treatment for lung cancer as early as possible.

Treatment for lung cancer depends on the stage it is diagnosed at. This can involve surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and life style changes. In addition to this, homeopathy can also be beneficial. Homeopathy is a holistic form of medication that treats the root cause of the problem. This type of treatment takes into account the symptoms of the condition, the patient’s overall physical health, mental state, emotional state and lifestyle. Thus, each remedy is customized according to the patient. Homeopathy has negligible side effects but for this reason, self-medication is not advised. Homeopathic medicine can be given to children and adults of all ages and can be taken along with other type of medication.

Homeopathic medication for lung cancer is made from naturally occurring substances. The actual medication prescribed to a patient includes only a very small percentage of this substance. This medication could take the form of pills, powders, or liquids. In most cases a combination of two or more medicines is prescribed at the same time. As treatment progresses the dosage of these medications and the medication itself may be changed. Homeopathy takes time to act and hence it is important to follow the doctor’s prescription and take the medication regularly. Though homeopathy has proved to be beneficial in treating lung cancer, doctors do not advise restricting treatment to homeopathic medication. If surgery, chemotherapy or radiation has been advised, you must consider them seriously.

When taking homeopathic remedies for lung cancer it is important to take the medication at least half an hour before or after eating anything. If two or more medicines are to be taken at the same time, a gap of at least 5-10 minutes should be allowed between medicines. The best time to take your morning dose is immediately after waking up and the best time for the night dose is just before going to bed unless otherwise prescribed. In case you have a concern or query you can always consult an expert & get answers to your questions!
