You dread winters! Because cold makes life hell for you – runny nose, sneezes, headache, stuffed-up feeling, and that cold damp feeling in the feet. Your defences are also too high, with a muffler wrapped around your head all day long, layers of woolens, more than a pair of warm socks, still nothing seems to keep you warm and if you thought that’s only the way to beat out your sensitivity, believe me you are totally wrong. Homeopathy may just be the right choice for you. A well-directed homeopathic treatment can actually help reduce and cure your sensitivity towards cold and disorders associated with it. In homeopathy we call it a “chilly constitution” and certain specific medicines are there for it. Medically speaking, slow metabolism is one of the main causes for cold intolerance. Some people (often very slender women) do not tolerate cold environments simply because they have minimal body fat and are unable to keep warm. General poor health, faulty diet and medical conditions such as anorexia nervosa, hypothyroidism, AIDS and other chronic illness can also lead to intolerance. Be it the lack of warmth in the body or symptoms that sensitive individuals develop, homeopathic medicines such as Silicea, Calcarea Carb offer a big promise in their treatments. Personally, I would rank Silicea ahead of other medicines in treating cold intolerance. Silicea is an invaluable constitutional remedy, and is indicated in the over-sensitive, imperfectly nourished (generally), not for want of food, but because of imperfect assimilation. There are …

Coccydynia refers to pain in coccyx (tailbone), which is the last bone at the bottom of the spine. Any injury or strain to the coccyx, pelvic bones, or the surrounding muscles and ligaments can lead to this pain. Further factors that can cause coccydynia are fall on the coccyx, repetitive strain from certain sports, stretching of ligaments and muscles around coccyx during childbirth, poor posture, prolonged sitting for long hours, being overweight or underweight, and age-related wear and tear. Less common causes may include bony growth on the coccyx, the coccyx being too flexible or too rigid, and arthritis. Other causes for tailbone pain are fractured bones (broken tailbone or tailbone fracture), sciatica and sacroiliitis. Less commonly, it may result from piles, pilonidal cyst and rarely it may occur from a tumour near tailbone. Homeopathy offers a very safe and natural treatment for cases of coccydynia. Homeopathic medicines for coccydynia help manage the condition by providing symptomatic relief in pain, tenderness, stiffness, and tightness across the coccyx area. Though painkillers given in conventional mode give instant relief, they provide relief for a short period and can have side effects with prolonged use. Homeopathy aims to provide a permanent cure rather than short-term relief along with the best part that these medicines have zero side effects. Homeopathy gives long-term results in cases of coccydynia by addressing the root cause behind it. In the beginning of homeopathic treatment, the acute pain is relieved. After the regular use of homeopathic medicines for the …
