Homeopathic medications are highly safe and very effective for ulcers. They not only reduce the severity of the symptoms,
they even reduce the frequency of the symptoms in cases of acute pain. Homeopathy heals the sores in the stomach and prevents
them from becoming chronic. Medications depend upon the severity of the ulcer, the constitutional setup of a person and the location
of the ulcer. Here are a few medications prescribed by practicing homeopaths.
- Argentum nitricum
- Arsenic album
- Geranium
- Lycopodium
- Graphites
Sores on the skin or mucous membrane and subsequent disintegration of tissue present can be considered an ulcerative formation or simply ulcer. Ulcers appear mostly on the skin of
the lower extremities and in the gastrointestinal tract. An ulcer has the appearance of an inflamed tissue surrounded by an area of reddened skin. Ulcers can become infected leading to pus formation.
Ulcers can be categorized as acute ulcers or chronic ulcers, the latter being more painful and long-lasting.
Ulcerative formation can also occur on the cheeks, soft palate, the tongue and/or the oral mucosa.
Diabetic patients need to exercise caution with ulcers, lest it leads to diabetic neuropathy.
