The US faces a threat from a disease that has spread to many countries across the world. Homoeopathy can help in curing and preventing chikungunya.
We could be eventually facing another mosquito-borne disease soon that is
much more serious than the West Nile Virus ever was. It is called Chikungunya. It is a form of viral fever caused by an alpha virus. It is spread by mosquito bites from the Aedes aegypti mosquito, though recent research by the Pasteur Institute in Paris indicates that the virus has mutated and can now be transmitted by the Asian tiger mosquito. It is now a global threat as the Asian tiger mosquito is found in Asia, Africa, Europe, the Americas, Australia and New Zealand. In the United States, the mosquito species tends to live in southeastern regions east of the Mississippi but has been found as far as Texas, Minnesota and New Jersey.
SYMPTOMS
Symptoms are pain of small joints such as at the knee, ankle, hands and feet. The pain is described as debilitating and can be crippling. There is often a fever up to 102.0 degrees followed by a rash involving the limbs and trunk. There is sometimes nausea and vomiting. There can be headache, insomnia and extreme fatigue that can last several weeks. There have been reports of sublingual (under the tongue) hemorrhage and ecchymotic (bruising) spots on the skin.
HOW DIAGNOSIS IS MADE?
The diagnosis is made through blood tests. Specialized serology testing is necessary in order to distinguish it from the plague and dengue fever.
HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT
Homeopathy may offer remedies, which may help. These include: Arnica, Belladona, Bryonia, Cedro, China, Influenzinum and Rhus-tox. Many homeopaths consider Eupatorium Perfoliatum as a possible preventive remedy.

HOMEOPATHY & CHIKUNGUNYA – SUCCESS STORY
ReplyDeleteThe history of my dad’s chikungunya attack dates back to our holiday in India (Kerala) during this Jul-Aug 2009 .
Symptoms (From 5th August): High grade fever, severe joints pain, ocular infection, severe body rashes, burning sensation in joints (ankles),insomnia, lack of appetite.
Allopathic medicines prescribed: Panadol,Prednisolone 4mg thrice daily,eye drops, pain relieving injections, chloroquine phosphate,cataflam 50mg and olfen 50 tablets
We reached Bahrain exactly 19 days after the disease onset. The pain worsened in intensity. We visited 2 local hospitals where more pain relievers were given and blood tests conducted for uric acid checks. The results were normal. He resorted to a walking stick and his structure became stooped or bent rightly the meaning of the disease in Swahili language.
He started passing blood through stools a result of abuse of his stomach lining with all these steroids and pain relievers he had during the last month. The ankle pain, his finger joint and morning stiffness became worse and on September 3rd I happened to read about the effectiveness of Homeopathy in curing chikungunya and our immediate thoughts were directed to Dr.Raaj Swetta in Bahrain with whom we were acquainted eversince my first child’s birth.
When Dr.Raaj visited my Dad for the first time, there was inflammation on the ankle joints, a crushing bone pain, feeling of twisted leg and burning sensation on all these painful areas. The joint pain had progressed to all critical areas (knee, shoulder, stiffness of the neck etc). The patient was suffering from the worst insomnia attack, with sleep duration of ½ hour to 1 hour per night. With all the toxic allopathic pain killers and steroids consumed till then, his response to the treatment course was slightly delayed.
The burning sensation was the first to vanish, followed by reducing pain in the joints, bowel movements gained control. Exactly a month after the commencement of the treatment, both the ankle joint pain has been cured completely and the last area of concern was his hands (finger joints, elbow and shoulders which was concentrated during early morning improving during the course of the day.The patient’s gait, posture and speed of walking is now normal. Sleep pattern is qualitative. Along with medications the patient has also practiced a safe and nutritious diet advised by Dr.Raaj who has visited us regularly at home and devoted personalized attention to every detail, accessible round the clock to our family. As a result in almost 40 days from the start of the treatment we are able to see the results of his sincere efforts on the case. We will be ever grateful for the dedicated and diligent approach he has adopted towards this case. Truly he was God sent in our crucial situation.
