Fungus Disease And Its Homoeopathic Approach Using Homoeopathic Repertories

Abstract

Fungal infections, commonly referred to as fungal diseases, are caused by the overgrowth of fungi in the body, leading to a variety of symptoms depending on the affected areas. These diseases can range from superficial skin infections to life-threatening systemic diseases. Conventional treatments, typically involving antifungal medications, can be effective, but they often come with side effects and can result in drug resistance. As a complementary or alternative treatment, Homoeopathy has garnered attention for its individualized approach to disease management. Homoeopathic treatment is based on the principle of "like cures like" and aims to stimulate the body's innate healing processes by selecting remedies that match the symptoms and overall constitution of the patient. Homoeopathic repertories serve as a key tool in this process, enabling practitioners to identify the most appropriate remedies for fungal conditions. This article explores fungal diseases and their impact on human health, followed by an overview of the homeopathic approach to these diseases, focusing on the use of repertories in selecting suitable remedies. The article also discusses key homoeopathic remedies for fungal diseases and provides a systematic framework for understanding their applications.
