SIDDHA HEALTH CARE

Siddha Medical Science is one of the most ancient form of medical theraphy existing in this mordern world.As per siddha history the founder of this theraphy was THE LORD SHIVA.It was then conveyed to the great siddhars AGASTHIYAR & THIRUMULAR by NANDHITHEVAR the first decipile of Lord Shiva.It was then followed and carried on by the great 18 SIDDHARS.They determined diseases and treated them on the bascis of VATHA,PITHA & KAPHA.They read vatha,pitha & kapha through the pulse beat felt near the wrist joint.
According to them,this system of medicine not only treats the diseases in the human body but also purifies the mind and soul.Their vision towards the treatment was different from that of our mordern type of treatment.They used only natural medicine to treat diseases because they belived in one principle ie "NOTHING EXISTS AS IT IS,CHANGE HAPPENS EVERY MOMENT."So they knew that "nothing can be invented,every thing is discovered."So they tried to treat diseases using what belongs to this world,that is our natural resource.
So brothers and sisters lets turn on our way towards the most ancient natural healing system of medicine SIDDHA MEDICINE.

EVOLUTION OF LIFE

In the vision of siddhars the earth was formed thousands and thousands of years ago, from the burst out sediment of the Sun. Because of its self revolution and its revolution around the sun, it cooled down and the panchapoothas (soil,water,air,fire and space) evolved in earth.Due to panchapoothas natural affinity towards each other and its balancing effects, several types of single celled organisms were formed.They further got mutated and several stages of life evolved, ie, grass (monocotlyedons), trees(dicotlyedons), anthropods, etc, etc, were formed. At last the mammals evolved.Human beings evolved about 50 crores of years ago. Siddhars belived human form of life as the last stage of life.So the quest for the reason of birth begined. As siddhars belived in the theory of "nothing exists as it is, changes happen at every moment",they want to know the next stage of human life, the reason of birth or the "SECRET of LIFE".

SECRET OF LIFE

Each and everybody has a curiosity to know what happenes to man after death.Siddhars had a perfect vision about it. According to thirumular life exists in the atom.He explains this atomic principle simply using pathi pasu and pasam.He compares these three with neutron ,proton and electron and simply explains the secret of life.(Neutron - pathi ,proton - pasu ,electron - pasam.).As per modern science neutron and proton are situated in the nucleus and the electron revolves around the nucleus.Thirumular demonstrates it as pathi(the supreme power present everywhere in the universe) lies along with pasu(the soul) and pasam(maya) envelopes around both and prevents pasu to realise the truth about pathi.So according to thirumular life exists in each and every atom.Because of the effort of pasam, pasu is blindfolded and it slowly starts to get distracted from pathi and gets to expand or shrinks as per its will and starts to join hands with similar particles and increases its density.This is the first step for evolution and it continues until the sixth sensed human race is formed.Thats why I say human race is sacred.Only the humans can realise the almighty.This is the secret of human life.

THE TRUTH

The distraction of pasu from pathi transforms atom to humans.This called evolution.The human mind desires all the happiness in this world and stops thinking about the eternal truth.Pasam maintains it perfectly.It will always blind the pasu from realising pathi.At one stage the human mind gets tired and tries to think on its own.Now it starts to get detached from pasam(maya) and tries to understand this world.Now the question arises.WHO AM I? WHERE I AM? WHY I AM HERE?

BRONCHIAL ASTHMA

Due to various stimuli there is an increased responsiveness of the trachea-bronchial tree, which results in paroxysmal (sudden) contraction of the bronchial airways. (i.e. a sudden onset of difficulty in breathing ) This is known as bronchial asthma.
There are two types in it. They are Extrinsic (allergen, regain mediated) and Intrinsic (idiopathic) or precipitated by various factors. It can be explained briefly as below.
1. ATOPIC ASTHMA: This is the most common type of asthma occurring in majority of cases which is acute. This is mainly because of allergies due to environmental antigens such as dust, pollen grains, foods, etc often with a positive family history. These antigens entering the lungs create a IgE mediated hyper-sensitive reaction i.e. binding of the antigens by IgE coated mast cells. This leads to the release of certain mediators such as histamine, chemotactic factors, prostaglandin D2 cytokines, neuropeptides, etc. This mediators cause bronchospasam, edema, mucus secretion and recruitment of leukocytes (basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils, monocytes). This recruitment of leukocytes is the reason for the later phase of the reaction because of which the asthmatic attack is prolonged. It is characterized by persistant bronchospasm and edema, leukocytic infiltration and necrosis of epithelial cells.
2. NON ATOPIC ASTHMA( non reaginic): These are the other types of asthma caused by respiratory tract infection, chemical reactions and drugs. This type usually does not have a family history. There is no evidence of IgE mediated hypersensitivity. The primary cause of increased airway reactivity is unknown.
So in general for bronchial asthma in modern medicine they treat with medicines that suppress the IgE mediated hypersensitive reactions. Generally it is treated with antihistamines and steroids. Prolonged use of these cause several side effects including hormonal imbalance, which results in several complications.
In siddha system we can control the effects of asthma to a great extent. Even though the disease is not completely cured, we can control the disease to certain limits without side effects. There are several siddha medicines which effectively controls the bronchospasm in asthma without side effects.

GASTRITIS 100% CURE IN SIDDHA TREATMENT

Gastritis is defined as the inflammation of the gastric mucosa.



Acute gastritis: It is an acute mucosal inflammatory process, usually transient. The main factors that produce acute gastritis are



1. Heavy use of NSAIDs drugs, particularly aspirin

2. Excessive intake of alcohol

3. Severe smoking

4. Cancer chemotherapy

5. Uremia

6. Systemic infection

7. Severe stress

8. Ischemia and shock

9. Ingestion of gastric irritants like acid and alkali

10. Mechanical trauma following distal gastrectomy.



Any one of these factors above may cause an increase in the acid production or a decrease in the production of surface bicarbonate buffer in the stomach. This reduces the mucosal blood flow, which results in the disruption of the mucous layer and damage to mucous epithelium. Because of this moderate mucosal edema and hyperemia with entry of neutrophils into the epithelial layer happens. Erosion of this superficial epithelial layer and hemorrhage constitute acute hemorrhagic Erosive Gastritis, which causes acute abdominal pain with hematemesis.



Chronic Gastritis: Chronic gastritis is defined as the presence of chronic mucosal inflammatory changes leading eventually to mucosal atrophy and epithelial metaplasia. The main factors which causes chronic gastritis are



1. Chronic infections especially Helicobacter pylori

2. Alcohol and tobacco

3. Post-surgical radiation

4. Uremia

5. Amyloidosis



The main symptoms of chronic gastritis are nausea, vomiting, epigastric discomfort, abdominal distension.



We have very good medicines for this gastritis, which must be taken for a period of 40 days. It cures any form of gastritis and we strongly say that gastritis will never be remittent and it will never come again unless or until you adapt to the regulations said by a well-trained siddha doctor.

URINARY CALCULI - SIDDHA TREATMENT

Urinary calculi is nothing but the formation of stones in the kidney or its path due to the deposit of calcium salts.

This generally occurs for persons who are involved in road works, cookery, those who work near furnace or boilers etc which emit excess of heat, persons who drink less amount of water.

Generally the symptoms are radiating pain from the hip to groin, burning urination or difficulty in urination, increase of pain during urination, vomiting sensation, intolerable pain in the lower abdomen(stomach) etc.

Mostly it is treated with diuretics and antibiotics. If it is not responding then surgical remedy is only recommended.
In our system of medicine our Siddhars had written a lot about treating UTI and urinary stones successfully without surgery.

In my hospital we are taking special care in treating calculi patients. They are treated with specially prepared medicines as per the guidelines written by siddhars. They are also advised strict diet code so as to prevent further occurrence of this disease.

We have treated patients having stones to the size of approximately 10 to 12 mm with 100% success. 

DRAMATIC HEALING OF WOUNDS - SIDDHA MEDICINE

BEFORE TREATMENT

AFTER TREATMENT

Mr.Paulian, 75/M came to me with an infected abscess in his right hip region.
The wound was foul smelling with oozing pus.
There was a lot of unwanted tissue growth.
He was unable to walk due to pain and he had several sleepless nights.
He was fully exhausted and was out of faith as he was advised Skin grafting by a plastic surgeon.
He was in need of a treatment without surgery.
The initial treatment was by incision to remove the pus and unwanted tissue growth.
Then I treated the wound externally with our specially prepared traditional siddha medicines as per the rules and regulations of our literature.
He was advised to follow a strict diet code as per our literature to avoid recurrent infections.
There was a dramatic change in the healing process of the wound. The healing
rate of the wound increased steadily.
Now the wound has almost healed and he is able to do his duties on his own without any help from others.
This is a strong witness of the efficacy of our system of medicine and I am proud to be a member of it.

WHITE DISCHARGE - SIDDHA MEDICINE

WHITE DISCHARGE is the most common problem nowadays among the working women. This is generally because of their mode of work and restlessness due to work load. More than 90% of working women have this problem and they don’t even have time to look over it.

Generally white discharge is of two types. They are Infectious and Non-infectious.
White discharge caused by infections must be treated immediately without fail. If left untreated it will cause foul smelling cloudy discharge along with an itching sensation. Further the infection may spread to the internal organs like uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, etc causing severe backache, profuse bleeding along with white discharge etc.

Non-infectious white discharge is generally due to the mode of work, life style, tension, mode of diet, climatic changes, hygienic conditions, anemia, etc.

Generally non-infectious white discharge is difficult to treat.

As per my vision non-infective white discharge is somewhat tough to treat because of the non-cooperative mentality of the patients. It is so because it takes a lot of time to control it. A minimum period of six months is required for SIDDHA treatment. Generally ladies don’t have the mentality to take medicines for such a long period. But in this case it is a must to take medicine for a long period. Then only the total metabolic activity is regulated and the vatha, pittha and kapha in the body are maintained as it is so that full cure is attained.

According to SIDDHA principle non-infective white discharge is caused mainly due to stress and tension, sleeplessness, change in body temperature mainly due to the changes in pitha, change in eating habit, eating certain type of food stuffs that increase the body temperature, hygienic conditions, excessive heat produced by walking long distances in heat without using chapels, excessive intercourse, having sex with infected persons, etc.

Infective white discharge is mainly caused by yeast, bacteria and trichomonas. The major symptoms are itching, curd like or yellowish foul smelling discharge, lower abdomen (stomach) pain, painful urination, painful intercourse, etc.

As per my vision infective white discharge is easy to treat with SIDDHA medicine and a 100% result can be attained with a good co-operative patient. A 40 days course of medicine is enough to treat infective white discharge. In some cases it is a must to treat the partner also to prevent further infections.

Most of the patients are shy to express the major symptoms. They think it as a great sin and are afraid to discuss about this matter frankly. They keep it as a great secret until it goes out of control and make the treatment more complicated. If treated early it will be easy to treat and the results will be quicker. So ladies don’t be shy to discuss about white discharge. If present treat it as early as possible so that the treatment is simple and the results are quicker.

To stop recurrent infections follow the rules below.

1. Don’t use soap to wash the pubic area frequently. Just wash with mild hot water and dry it with a soft, clean and dry towel.

2. Try to avoid bringal and dry fish.

3. It is a must to clean and dry the pubic area after intercourse. ( without soap )

4. Try to avoid wearing silk panties. Cotton panties are preferable. Wear panties only when needed other times try to be free. Avoiding panties is advisable.

5. Try to avoid public toilets. If unavoidable wash with water cleanly after urination. It is a must.

UNKNOWN BITE - SIDDHA MEDICINE

About 75% of the world animal population is arthropods. In these a small number of species (spider, scorpion, bees, wasps, ants, etc) possess venom that causes morbidity and mortality when humans are bitten or stung.
These species have a venom apparatus such as a gland which produces venom which is injected into humans by means of bite or sting. Mainly these venoms consist of histamines. This is the main cause for the allergic reactions in humans. The main allergic reaction is pain in the site of bite or sting, skin reactions, pruritus, etc
If these symptoms are present then it must be treated at the earliest as possible with anti-histamines. If left untreated it will latter develop skin allergies like thickening of the skin, itching, etc, which will be tough task to treat by modern science.

As per siddha principle unknown bite is known as kaana kadi. Allergic skin reactions caused due to the bite of organisms such as millipede, scorpion, insects, bees, certain non poisonous snakes, etc come under this section unknown bite.

Generally the symptoms are thickening or hardening of the epidermis, color change in the skin, itching, etc.

Patients will have severe itching so that they will scratch until blood oozes from the spot. They can’t control the itch so they scratch until wounds are formed on the spot. Now too itching persists and they try to scratch around the border of the wounds which further aggravates the wounds, which latter becomes septic and makes the treatment more complicated.
In my practice section such complicated cases are treated with special care because if left untreated these wounds will never heal and they stay as a thorn in his flesh for a long time. So patients must be beware of it and must treat unknown bite as early as possible to avoid complications.

When treated early with both internal and external siddha medicines good results are shown and quicker remedy can be seen. In the complicated stage first medicines are given to heal the wounds first with both external and internal medicines and then only the medicines for unknown bite is given.

In my clinical practice unknown bite is treated by siddha medicine within a span of 40 days with good results. But in the complicated cases it is taking longer periods. But it can be cured completely.

There are certain food restrictions during the in take of this medicine. Dried fish, bringal, curd, pork, pickles, jack fruit, mangoes, egg, tomato as these food stuffs aggravate the symptoms .

Try to treat unknown bite as early as possible before it gets complicated and get good results with siddha medicine. Good luck.

DEGENERATIVE JOINT DISEASE(DJD) OSTEOARTHRITIS(OA) - SIDDHA TREATMENT

DJD is caused by the breakdown of articular cartilage mainly in the weight bearing joints, which leads to sub-chondral bony thickening and bony overgrowths. The cause for DJD is unknown, but most likely related to metabolic and bio-chemical alterations.
DJD mostly occurs in men in midlife, somewhat later in women. This frequency increases with age to about 80%. The relationship between age and previous injury is responsible for the genesis of this disease in majority of cases.Usually knees and hands are more commonly affected in women and hips in men.
Mostly DJD is asymptomatic. Generally the symptoms are morning stiffness of the affected joints, restricted movements, small effusions and crackling sound in the affected joints ( crepitus), reduction in mobility and increasing pain with joint motion.
Generally these types of patients are managed with kneecaps, painkillers and steroids. These may be helpful to certain extend. But in long run, these medicines are less effective and the pain increases again.
When the conservative treatments fail, these patients are advised for KNEE JOINT REPLACEMENT.
As per modern vision this disease can just controlled but can never be cured completely.
In SIDDHA literature it is termed as AZHAL KEEL VAYU. The causes written by SIDDHARS for azhal keel vayu are dryness of the joints which decreases the synovial fluid causing damage to the articular cartilage. Due to this, pain is felt in the joints.
The symptoms of this disease are pain in the joints, pain increases while walking, crepitation felt during movements, if left untreated the function of the joint is completely lost and the joint gets jammed. Mainly the knee joint is affected as per SIDDHA principle.
In my clinical practice i have treated a number of DJD with a high success rate with specially made SIDDHA medicines prepared as per SIDDHA literature. The medicine has two separate courses of each 60 days. Immediately after the first course, a pause of 7 days is maintained. Our medicines have no side effects when properly managed. It must be taken under the proper guidance of a well trained SIDDHA physician.

SINUSITIS IN SIDDHA MEDICINE

One of the major diseases in the tropical countries like India is sinusitis (inflammation of the sinus).

In general the symptoms are heaviness of head, eye irritation, pain in the fore head, discharge of mucus or fluid or blood with mucus from the nose.

Mainly it is treated with anti histamines and anti allergic drugs. The main investigation for sinusitis is blood sample test for increase in esinophils, X- ray skull for inflammation of the sinuses. If the inflammation is severe surgical correction is recommended.

According to our siddha system siddhars had told sinusitis as mookadaipu noi.

The common symptoms for mookadaipu noi told by siddhars are redness of the nose, sneezing, redness of eyes with excessive lacrimation, running nose, headache, discharge of mucus, pus or blood from the nose.

According to the great siddhars of siddha system this disease is mainly caused by drinking excessive cold water, going out in excessive cold air, inhaling smoke or dust dense air, inhaling particles that induces sneezing, taking bath in cold water when the body temperature is high, intaking excessive amount of cold food, drinking contaminated water, compulsory stopping of lacrimation and vomiting, high decibel excessive talking, increased or shortened sleep, and wrong practice of yoga.

The first symptoms of the disease are itching or burning sensation of the nose, excessive lacrimation, change of tone in speech, headache, difficulty in breathing, and running nose.

According to our siddha system siddhars had classified this disease as 9 types. They are

1. Vali mookadaipu
2. Azhal mookadaipu
3. Aiya mookadaipu
4. Neer mookadaipu
5. Kuruthi mookadaipu
6. Seel mookadaipu
7. Siraai mookadaipu
8. Mulai mookadaipu
9. Kaluthu mookadaipu


Of the above types we will discuss about the commonly occurring cases we come across in our clinical practice in our day to day life in our next posts.

ALLERGIC RHINITIS IN SIDDHA SYSTEM - NEER MOOKADAIPU

In a growing country like India nowadays the air is becoming more and more polluted due to heavy machineries, automobiles, fertilizers, etc. which causes several allergic reactions. One such allergic reaction occurring in humans is ALLERGIC RHINITIS.

Mainly this is caused by inhaling chemicals allergic to us, dust, pollutants, pollen grains, etc. eating foods that causes certain allergies, etc.

Generally the symptoms are non stop nasal discharge, heaviness of head, eye irritation, sneezing, and sometimes utricaria.

Generally this type is treated with anti histamines which are effective to certain extent only. Treating with decongestants relieve nasal congestion and itchy eyes. Antihistamine tablets relieve sneezing and itching, and can prevent nasal congestion before an allergy attack. Antihistamines cause drowsiness so it is important to avoid driving or working with machinery after taking them. Corticosteroid and nasal sprays reduce inflammation and are effective in treating ALLERGIC RHINITIS symptoms.

Immunotherapy (allergy shots) may be given to people over seven whose allergies are severe and do not respond to medication. Surgery may be needed for certain cases of mechanical obstruction, such as deviated septum or polyps.

In the SIDDHA system of medicine SIDDHARS had told about this disease more than 2000 years back and had successfully treated this disease. According to the great SIDDHARS of SIDDHA system allergic rhinitis is nothing but Neer mookadaipu noi.

They had told that this disease is caused by eating and drinking cold foods and drinks, taking bath in cold water, inhaling deodorants or scents that are allergic to us, inhaling certain dusts or pollen grains which can cause allergic reactions, etc. which are the main reasons for the out come of this disease.

Further SIDDHARS had described the main symptoms of this disease as non stop discharge of clear fluid from the nose, headache, fever, general malaise, and pain in the arms and legs.

In SIDDHA system SIDDHARS tell plenty of medicines to treat allergic rhinitis successfully without failure. In the early stages eating spicy foods like ginger, black pepper, etc will somewhat decrease the symptoms.

In my clinical practice I have come across several cases with success. Generally they come to me at the later stages only, when the anti histamines don’t work. These patients need a 90 days course of SIDDHA medicine. Early cases can be treated with a 41 days course of specially prepared SIDDHA medicines with complete success. Another important thing during this course of SIDDHA medicine is food restriction. Certain foods must be avoided during the course of SIDDHA medicine.

Dried fish
Cold foods
Soft drinks
Bringal and vegetables belonging to its family
Grapes
Orange
Chicken
Lemon juice
Spinach
Tender coconut
Banana
Pineapple

must be strictly avoided. If we stick to these food restrictions perfectly and take a course of 41 days specially made SIDDHA medicines allergic rhinitis can be cured completely.
So get rid of allergic rhinitis from your life with the safe and naturally made siddha medicines without side effects. Best of luck.

PILES OR HEMORRHOIDS

Piles or Hemorrhoids are the ectasia of hemorrhoidal  plexus present in the rectum.
It affects 5% of the adult population.
It is associated with constipation, venous stasis of pregnancy and cirrhosis (Portal hypertension).
Generally it is of two types.
They are
1. Internal piles and
2. External piles.
Ectasia ( dilation, expansion or distension ) of the inferior hemorrhoidal plexus below the anorectal line produces external piles or external hemorrhoid.
Ectasia of the superior hemorrhoidal plexus produces internal piles or internal hemorrhoid.
They may sometimes coexist.
Complications include secondary thrombosis, pain, strangulation, ulceration with fissure formation, bleeding, etc.
In Siddha it is called MOOLAM Noi.
According to siddha principle bulging or inflammation of any one of the veins present in the rectum or anus causes small finger like outgrowth along the anus which is called as MOOLAM Noi.
According to siddhars over eating spicy foods, elephant, horse, camel riding, excessive workout of yogic exercises, over holding of breath in pranayama exercise, crash diet, excessive sexual activities, stress, anger, etc are the main reasons for occurring this disease.
The major symptoms told by the siddhars are pain, itching, burning sensation, constipation, bleeding, fissures, etc.
According to siddhar uegi muni moolam noi (piles) is of 21 types. We will see these types in the latter posts.
Karunai kizlangu legiyam is a good medicine for it.
In our hospital we take special care in treating piles patients.A mixture of specially made siddha medicines along with karunai kizlangu legiyam is given for a period of 41 days or more according to the severity of the disease which gives a good result.
Foods to be avoided
Spicy food
Dried fish
Pickles
Very hot foods
Crab
Prawns
Chicken
Bringal
Beef
Mutton
Tapioca etc
Foods to be taken
Pork      
Ghee
Milk
Butter
Tortoise
Snail etc
Stick to the diet code to get best result using SIDDHA medicine. Have a painless good morning in the toilet. Have a nice day.

SIDDHA ASPECT OF ALCOHOLISM - KUDI VEERI NOOI


Siddha aspect of alcoholism
Kudi veeri noi
Excessive intake of alcohol, toddy, and fermented fruit juices causes this disease.
Generally it increases the body heat, stimulates the mind which catalyses to speak a lot and then hinders the movement and then collapses the body.
Mainly it is of four stages.
  1. Stage
Stimulates the body, increases the strength, increases appetite
Increases the memory power to recall certain lost memories
Increases libido (sexual desire)
Easily digests food
Makes to sing and dance beautifully
  1. Stage
Derails from the natural behavior
Indulges in fight, scolding, etc.
Increases sleep
                                        
  1. Stage
Wild behavior like a maniac
Will never respect anyone
He cannot recall what he is doing
Talks and do whatsoever is in his mind and will be true to his mind
  1. Stage
Loses his mind and body                      
Loses his strength and ability to walk
Falls down like a tree
Pulse rate decreases             
Increased perspiration, chilled hands and legs
Coma stage attained
Sometimes lethal (death).
General symptoms

In the initial stage increases strength and happiness, IQ etc.
In the later stages it decreases the strength, causes dizziness, tremor, blurred vision, and dryness of mouth, tachycardia (increased heart rate), dripping saliva from the mouth, dancing, singing, nausea and vomiting. Further it causes loss of consciousness with prolonged sleep and heavy snore. Then it increases perspiration, loss of sensation in the arms and legs, difficulty ion breathing and causes death.

Differences in the nadi
                      
Pitha nadi is increased which diminishes both the other nadis ( vatha and kapha ) and hinders them from doing their jobs. Increased pitha causes dancing and singing and running all over with joy, increased urination, then causes vomiting, abnormal breathing, increased perspiration, tremor, etc.

Stages and nadi

               I.      Stage              increased pitha
            II.      Stage              increased pitha along with vatha
         III.      Stage &
          IV.      Stage              increased vatha, pitha and kapha.

That means all the three nadis joined together are elevated from their normal routine.
This is very important in the practice point of view.

Treatment

In our hospital we give specially made siddha medicine for a period of 90 days. This may be given with or without the concern of the patient. Strictly counseling is required for both the person and the family. We treat chronic alcoholic patients with 100% success in our Hospital.
