Oral mucoceles are non-cancerous cysts filled with mucus that frequently develop in the oral cavity, primarily due to the rupture of minor salivary glands caused by trauma or obstruction. Traditional treatment methods generally involve surgical excision or incision and drainage; however, these approaches often lead to a high recurrence rate. This case report illustrates the effective management of an oral mucocele through homeopathic treatment. A 33-year-old patient presented with a painless swelling in the lower lip, which was identified as an oral mucocele. The patient received a constitutional homeopathic remedy, resulting in noticeable improvement and gradual reduction of the swelling, with no recurrence noted during the follow up period. Homeopathy has proven to be a reliable treatment option in various surgical cases with underlying causes. This case highlights the potential of homeopathy as a holistic and non-invasive method for treating oral mucoceles, providing a viable alternative to traditional surgical interventions.

Telogen effluvium is a scalp disorder characterized by diffuse, non-scarring shedding of hair. The term ‘telogen effluvium’ was proposed to differentiate it from excessive shedding of normal club hair. Various hypothesis is put forward regarding the pathophysiology of Telogen effluvium. Headington proposed that there are five different functional types of Telogen effluvium based on alterations in particular phase of follicular cycle. Whiting defined chronic telogen effluvium as an idiopathic disorder. Telogen effluvium is different from the hair loss disorder called alopecia areata. Large amounts of a person’s hair might fall out, but it is often temporary, and the hair usually grows back. Research question: Is there any difference in action of Arnica Montana mother tincture and Wiesbaden mother tincture when given as local application with Individualised Homeopathic medicine for hair fall in females of 18-45 years of age? Aim: To study the difference of effectiveness between external application of Arnica Montana Q and Wiesbaden Q with Individualised Homoeopathic medicine in management of Telogen effluvium. Objectives:Primary: 1) To find reduction in hair fall. 2) To study the effectiveness of local application of Arnica Montana mother tincture along with Homeopathic Individualized medicine. 3) To study the effectiveness of local application of Wiesbaden mother tincture along with Homeopathic Individualized medicine. Secondary: To compare the effectiveness of external application of Arnica Montana Q and Wiesbaden Q along with Individualised Homeopathic medicine for Telogen effluvium in females. Method: With the help of pull test & Daily Hair Count criteria we screened approximately 50 People, out of which 46 were selected. To conduct study we made two group, group A (Arnica Q) & group B (Wiesbaden Q) along with Individualised Homoeopathic medicine. The selection of mother tincture for the selected patient was done randomly. Result: Reduction of hair fall was observed according to Pull test. In Paired t test, calculated t value for group A is 7.03 (table value is 2.07) and calculated t value for group B is 6.04 (table value is 2.07) both t value exceed table t value.

Cold-related illnesses pose significant health challenges, particularly affecting the respiratory, cardiovascular, and musculoskeletal systems. Exposure to cold leads to bronchoconstriction, vasoconstriction, and immune suppression, increasing susceptibility to respiratory infections, cardiovascular diseases, and rheumatic conditions. Conventional treatments provide symptomatic relief, whereas homeopathy offers a holistic approach, addressing both the exciting cause (cold exposure) and constitutional susceptibility of individuals. This systematic review explores the pathophysiology of cold-related illnesses, their classification under the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), and homeopathic therapeutic strategies. Key remedies such as Aconitum Napellus, Rhus Toxicodendron, Dulcamara, and Gelsemium are frequently indicated based on repertorial data. The review also highlights the role of exciting causes in homeopathic case-taking, repertorial rubrics related to cold exposure, and Materia Medica references. Despite its clinical application, homeopathic treatment of cold-related illnesses lacks large-scale, systematic validation. Most studies are case-based rather than randomized controlled trials (RCTs), underscoring the need for standardized trials with well-defined protocols. Future research should focus on RCTs comparing homeopathy with conventional treatments, developing clinical guidelines, and investigating the molecular mechanisms of homeopathic dilutions in cold-induced conditions. This study aims to contribute to evidence-based homeopathic practice for managing cold-related illnesses.

Tinea infections, caused by dermatophytes, affect the skin, hair, and nails, leading to various clinical manifestations like itching, scaling, and inflammation. This review explores the pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnostic methods, and treatment options for tinea infections, with a focus on Tinea corporis, the most common form. The pathogenesis involves the invasion of the epidermis by dermatophytes, triggering an inflammatory immune response, with factors such as host immunity and environmental conditions influencing disease progression. The review also highlights the different types of tinea infections, their clinical presentation, and the factors increasing their prevalence, particularly in tropical regions. Diagnosis is mainly clinical, supported by dermoscopy, microscopic examination, and fungal culture. Standard treatments include topical and systemic antifungal therapies, though resistance and treatment failures remain challenges. Additionally, the review examines the potential role of homoeopathic remedies in managing tinea infections, offering individualized treatment options based on patient symptoms and constitutional characteristics. This comprehensive analysis provides insights into both conventional and alternative approaches to managing dermatophyte infections effectively.

Background: Neck pain ranks among the leading causes of disability globally, particularly affecting young adults. Neck pain ranks 4th in disability causes, affecting 6-20% of the workforce with a 50% lifetime prevalence. Annual rates vary from 15% to 50%, peaking in middle-aged females. GBD Study data shows a 21% increase in pain lasting over 3 months from 2006 to 2016. Despite its significant burden, research efforts remain limited, with only 0.12 trials per million disability-adjusted life years and a total of 30 million globally. Its nonspecific form, often multifactorial in origin, diminishes quality of life, productivity, and socioeconomic status. Effective management strategies, including drugs, surgery, and conservative therapies, remain pivotal, yet the optimal approach is uncertain. Yoga, a burgeoning complementary therapy, shows promise in alleviating musculoskeletal pain, though its specific impact on chronic non-specific neck pain remains underexplored. Homeopathy, known for its individualized approach, offers potential relief for neck pain, yet its efficacy in chronic non-specific cases warrants investigation. A comparative study is thus imperative to discern optimal treatment modalities.

Background: An impairment of memory manifested by a reduced ability to remember things such as dates and names, and increased forgetfulness. Memory loss can be caused by many things such as medications, alcohol, tobacco, smoking, depression and stress , nutritional deficiency, cancer treatments, injuries to brain, many pathological conditions (like tumor, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, dementia etc.) , psychological diseases , etc. To bridge the gap in knowledge regarding homeopathic approach to cognitive enhancement, paving the way for more comprehensive and personalized treatment in the field of memory health. Aim and Objective: Primary Objective: To study the effectiveness of indicated homoeopathic medicines in improving memory in the people with memory complaints. Secondary Objective-To study the frequently prescribed medicines in the cases of memory complaints. Material and methods: The patients were included in the study on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria and on the assessment of MCS. Total 45 patients selected from Motiwala national homoeopathic medical College and hospital OPD and peripheral camps. The patients who were selected underwent detailed case recording and case processing as per the format of our study. Further regular six follows were taken at a regular interval. In the last follow up again the MCS score was taken to assess the outcome of the study either changes. After that result was drawn with the help of statistical analysis. Result: Total 46 patients were assessed we found 40 (88.8%) cases were improved and 5 (11.11%) cases were not improved. As per consideration of people with memory complaints we have concluded that homeopathic indicated medicines are effective in treatment of memory complaints. Significant difference (t- 0.05 = 2.02, < t = 5.49) using paired t-test. Was observed at the end of study. Natrum muriaticum, Phosphorus, Lycopodium clavatum, Sulphur, Calcarea carbonicum were found to be the most useful medicine in treating memory complaints.

Dental caries is a prevalent chronic condition globally, impacting individuals of all ages, with children being particularly susceptible. It arises from bacterial fermentation of dietary sugars, leading to acid production that gradually erodes tooth enamel, dentin, and cementum, eventually causing cavities and tooth decay. The prevalence of dental caries varies across countries due to differences in oral healthcare programs, lifestyles, and socioeconomic status. Dental caries not only affects oral health but also poses significant challenges to overall well-being, including difficulties in eating, sleeping, and school attendance.
