treatment for chronic

Treatment for chronic in homoeopathy is not an easy job, because it involves so many norms - i.e.similia similibus curentur, principle; curing of the man, not the disease; writing of case history of the patient; careful repertorisation for the selection of indicated remedy; potency of medicine to be used; mininum possible dose; repetition of medicine; constitutional intercurrent or block, removing remedy, etc. Block-removers remove the obstacles to cure. All psoric, syphilitic and sycotic remedies remove the block. These block-removing remedies are used when after some relief, there is no further relief or cure of the disease. Psoric Sulphur, syphilitic Mercurius sol or sycotic Thuja is a block-removing remedy in 200 potency.
 Homoeopathy has a lengthy treatment for curing chronic eczema, gout, leucoderma and chronic bronchitis. 6 months to 3 years may require to cure such diseases. It is not possible to cure the patient with the same medicine that was selected in the beginning of treatment, and if it is continued for long time, then there would be proving of the medicine at one stage. After some time the patient shows some other new symptoms. Under such circumstance, a second repertorising is required for the selection of the second remedy, and so on. In order to avoid proving of one medicine, a trio plan of treatment is prescribed. 1st, 2nd and 3rd remedies are selected and repeated one after the other for 10 to 20 days in cyclic order.
 The investigation of the condition of the Patient, and the discrimination of the particular nature of the Disease, are evidently essential to appropriate treatment. It is therefore imperative that a work of this kind should contain such simple regulations on this head as may lead unprofessional persons easily and simply to a clear and positive resolution. Such an investigation may properly be divided positive resolution. Such an investigation may properly be divided into two distinct sections, namely: first, the general investigation of the patient, and, secondly, the particular investigation of the disease.
