In this article, I given an account on this disease and cited a case treated homeopathically.

Background: The various levels of severity are defined on the basis of adaptive functioning, and not IQ scores, because it is adaptive functioning that determines the level of supports required. Moreover IQ measures are less valid in the lower end of IQ range. Mental retardation is a disability characterized by significant limitations both in intellectual functioning and in adaptive behavior as expressed in conceptual, social, and practical adaptive skills. Although MR is not treatable, many associated impairments are amenable to homoeopathic intervention and therefore benefit from early identification. Objectives: 1. To study different clinical presentations of mental retardation. 2. To evaluate the usefulness of homoeopathic medicines in the improvement of adaptive behaviors of mentally retarded children. 3. To evaluate the usefulness of homoeopathic medicines in the improvement of IQ of mentally retarded children.

As we know, skin is the mirror of the soul! This understanding forms the basis of homeopathic management of skin disorders. In modern medicine, warts are understood to be caused by an infection with the human papillomavirus. Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) under the Papillomavirus family are common agents for producing skin warts in adults; as well as in children, throughout the globe. As a principle, homeopathic treatment is based on understanding of the patient as a whole. Homeopathic science believes the there is an internal propensity to diseases along with external virulence. Warts can be categorised under local maladies which signify those changes and ailments that appear on the external parts of the body and as mentioned in aph. 189 and aph. 193, local maladies cannot arise persist or even grow worse without some internal cause. So, for the treatment of these affections, an internal medicine should be selected on the basis of totality of symptoms. Chronic diseases are classified into three main categories of miasms, namely, psora (itch), sycosis (condyloma), and syphilis (chancre or bubo). Warts come under sycosis miasm.The ultimate goal of every homoeopathic prescriber should be to achieve the cure by any mean but cure should always be based on the fundamentals of homoeopathy and regulations of organon of medicine. Objectives: To find out the commonest type of wart prevalent and to find out the common homoeopathic remedies prescribed for warts.

Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic primary pain syndrome characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, cognitive dysfunction, and psychological distress. It is classified under ICD-11 as nociplastic pain and represents the second most common rheumatic disorder. The condition often coexists with other chronic overlapping pain syndromes such as irritable bowel syndrome, temporomandibular disorder, and chronic headache, implicating central nervous system dysregulation in its pathophysiology. Diagnosis relies on the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria, revised in 2016, which emphasize the Widespread Pain Index (WPI) and Symptom Severity Score (SSS). Conventional management includes analgesics, antidepressants, and muscle relaxants, though these are associated with significant side effects. Homoeopathy offers individualized treatment options, with studies demonstrating improvements in pain, tender point count, quality of life, and mood. Remedies such as Rhus toxicodendron, Arnica, Cimicifuga, Bryonia, Ruta, Kali carbonicum, Kalmia, and Gelsemium are highlighted for their efficacy in addressing fibromyalgia symptoms. This review underscores the importance of holistic management approaches, integrating homoeopathy to improve functional outcomes and patient well-being.
