Recurrent aphthous ulcer (RAU) is one of the most common painful oral mucosal conditions affecting a significant proportion of the population. The prevalence of aphthous ulcers is reported to be high worldwide, with studies indicating a prevalence of about 25% globally and approximately 50.3% in India. The condition is characterized by recurrent, painful ulcerations of the oral mucosa which may affect eating, speaking, and overall quality of life. Several predisposing factors such as stress, spicy food intake, gastric disturbances, lack of sleep, mechanical injury, and inadequate water intake have been associated with the occurrence of recurrent aphthous ulcers. The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the homoeopathic medicine Borax Veneta 30C in the management of recurrent aphthous ulcers in patients aged between 10 and 30 years of both sexes. This study was designed as a non-randomized, without control trial using a before and after study method. A total of 45 patients suffering from recurrent aphthous ulcers were selected from the outpatient department of MHMC based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study duration was six months and the effectiveness of the remedy was assessed using subjective and objective parameters such as intensity of pain measured through the Visual Analogue Scale, number of ulcers, recurrence of ulcers, and inflammatory signs. After administration of Borax Veneta 30C and follow-up observations, the results showed improvement in 32 patients (71.11%), whereas 13 patients (28.89%) showed no significant improvement. The analysis also indicated that stress was the most common predisposing factor for recurrent aphthous ulcers among the studied cases. The findings suggest that Borax Veneta 30C may be effective in reducing the intensity and recurrence of aphthous ulcers in a considerable number of patients. However, further controlled clinical studies with larger sample sizes are recommended to establish the therapeutic effectiveness of this remedy more conclusively.

Anaemia is defined as a reduced hemoglobin concentration in blood below the lower limit of normal range, for the age and sex of individual. Normal hemoglobin level of new born at the time of birth is 14-22 %gm/dl, and in infant it is 9.5-13% gm/dl, normal adult hemoglobin lies between 13-16 % gm/dl in males, 11.5-15 % gm/dl in females. The aim of study is to compare Ferrum phos 6x and its combination with homeopathic medicine with randomized controlled trial that homeopathy is somewhat worth for the treatment of anemia. So in this study the expected result was that the treatment of anemia with Ferrum phos 6x and Ferrum phos 6x along with homeopathic medicines will support in increasing Hb level by 1 gm/dl .

Enuresis also known as bedwetting is involuntary urination while asleep after the age at which bedwetting can become a cause of embarrassment for both chil ren and their parents.The symptoms and diagnosis of the disease have been clearly defined in medical research. Further the understanding of the somatopsychic effects could lead to better treatments and help to reduce prevalence through preventive measures. The prevalence of nocturnal enuresis for females is 10.6%, for males it is 16.9% and the overall prevalence is 13.7%, In preparing the dissertation on “SOMATOPSYCHIC EFFECTS OF NOCTURNAL ENURESIS IN PAEDIATRIC AGE GROUP AND ITS CORRESPONDING MATERIA MEDICA IMAGES”, I have observed and studied various causes and psychological impact for selection of homoeopathic similimum. MateriaMedica images of various drugs are formed with the help of conceptual image format. Bed wetting can possibly tarnish the self-confidence of the child developing a strong fear of being ridiculed by peers.

Breast health is an important aspect of women’s healthcare, and early detection of pathological conditions plays a crucial role in preventing serious complications. A community-based survey and medical camp on pathological conditions of the breast was conducted on 2 September 2023 in the selected area of Dhruv Nagar, Satpur. The program was organized by the Department of Community Medicine, Department of Repertory and Case Taking, and Department of Surgery with the participation of IV BHMS students under the guidance of faculty members. The main objectives of the survey were to screen for pathological conditions of the breast, create awareness regarding breast examination, and conduct a medical camp for the community. Prior to the survey, students were trained through a demonstration session on self-breast examination (SBE) to effectively educate women in the community. A structured questionnaire and Google form were prepared to collect relevant information. During the survey, trained students demonstrated self-breast examination techniques to participants and screened a total of 327 women from different age groups. An awareness campaign was also conducted to educate participants about breast health, risk factors, and the importance of regular screening. Several cases of early breast abnormalities were detected, and participants with suspicious findings were referred to Motiwala (National) Homoeopathic Medical College Hospital for further evaluation and treatment. The activity significantly improved awareness among participants as well as students regarding breast health and early detection practices. The survey highlights the importance of community-based health education and screening programs in promoting early diagnosis and preventive healthcare.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infections in children, especially in developing countries, following gastrointestinal and respiratory infections. Pediatric UTIs may lead to significant morbidity and long-term complications such as hypertension and impaired renal function if not managed properly. The incidence of UTI varies according to age and sex, with a higher prevalence in girls compared to boys. Common causative organisms include Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, Enterococcus, and Pseudomonas species. UTIs generally occur due to ascending infection through the fecal-perineal-urethral route. Clinical manifestations vary depending on age, ranging from fever, vomiting, irritability, and poor feeding in infants to dysuria, frequency, abdominal pain, and urinary urgency in older children. Diagnosis is primarily based on urine examination obtained through reliable methods such as catheterization or suprapubic aspiration, along with supportive investigations including complete blood count, ultrasonography, and micturating cystourethrogram when necessary. Homoeopathy, based on the principle “Similia Similibus Curentur,” offers a holistic and individualized approach for the management of UTIs in children. Several homoeopathic remedies such as Cantharis, Cannabis sativa, Petroselinum, Sulphur, Clematis, Equisetum, and Sabal serrulata are indicated according to the characteristic symptoms of the patient. These medicines, prepared from natural substances and administered in minimum doses, are considered safe and gentle for pediatric use. This literature review highlights the epidemiology, etiology, clinical features, diagnosis, and homoeopathic management of urinary tract infections in children. Further clinical research and well-designed studies are required to establish the effectiveness of homoeopathic medicines in the treatment and prevention of pediatric UTIs.
