• Status, spread & awareness of homoeopathy
• Development of homoeopathy by homoeopaths
STATUS, SPREAD & AWARENESS…
HISTORICAL EVOLUTION IN INDIA:
• Homeopathy entered India in 1839 when Dr. John Martin Honigberger was called to treat Maharaja Ranjit Singh, the ruler of Punjab, for paralysis of vocal cords and oedema.
• The Maharaja was relieved of his complaints and in return received valuable rewards and later on was made officer-in-charge of a hospital.
• Dr. Honigberger later on went to Calcutta and started practice there. This royal patronage helped the system to have its roots in India.
MILESTONES OF DEVELOPMENT OF HOMOEOPATHY IN INDIA…

• 1949: Homoeopathic Enquiry Committee report presented, whichrecommended constitution of Central Homoeopathy Council
• 1954: Homoeopathic Advisory Committee formed at the Centre, whichadvised the Govt. on all matters pertaining to Homoeopathy including education, research, regulation of practice, pharmacopeias, drug manufacture, hospitals & dispensaries, etc.
• 1955: Special postal cancellation on 10th April, to commemorate Bicentenary celebration of birth anniversary of Dr. Hahnemann, the father of Homoeopathy
• 1962: Nomination of Honorary Homoeopathic Advisor to Govt. of India .

• 1995: Department of Indian System of Medicine and Homoeopathy (ISM&H) formed under Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Govt. of India.
• 2002: National Policy on Indian Systems of Medicine and Homoeopathy formulated
• 2003: Department of ISM&H renamed as Department of Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani, Yoga & Naturopathy and Homoeopathy (AYUSH)
DEVELOPMENT OF HOMOEOPATHY BY INDIAN HOMOEOPATHS….
Indian Homoeopaths bring the homoeopathy to the next level not only in India also in International level.
Let us see about few such Indian homoeopaths…Here, I just try to give an outline about discoveries of some of our Indian Homoeopaths, its not the complete article about their Discoveries. Its just like a Menu card & not a meal.
DR. PRAFULL G. VIJAYAKAR:
• Founder & Director of school of 'Predictive Homoeopathy‘.
• President, Indian Institute of Homoeopathic Physicians, Mumbai (I.I.H.P.)
• Hon. Prof. & Head of Department, Organon, Kshirsagar Homoeopathic College, Beed, Maharashtra.
Dr. Prafull Vijayakar has been practicing Classical Hahnemannian Homoeopathy for over 30 years.
In spite of a massive practice , seeing around 200 patients a day, he has devoted a lot of time for research and study.5TH ,6TH & 7TH LAYER...

POINTS TO NOTE...
•D/S Symptoms in the lower 3 layers can be easily be removed by any Homoeopath.(even who prescribed only on mentals or with physicals)
•D/S symptoms of 4th,5th,6th stage can’t be > by wrong or specific prescribers.
•Lower stage disease symptoms are a result of dynamic disturbance in biochemical reactions, which can be altered easily eitherways.
•Higher stage D/s symptoms are brought about by a deviation of the genetic code. This can be cured only by a wholistic prescription.
•7th layer is virtually a point of ‘no return’. But on prescribing on totality normal functions can be restored,with sensation of ‘well being’,leading to peaceful ,prolonged existence inspite & despite of pathology. These are ‘compensatory cures’. In such cures,we don’t see the applicability of Hering’s law of cure.
•Dr.Vijayakar also explains about types of suppression, proof of similimum, 2nd prescription analysis in his book ‘Theory of suppression’.
DR.VIJAYAKAR’S GOLDEN RULE FOR A/C PRESCRIBING:
1. Be a minimum prescriber.
2. Be a single remedy prescriber.
3. Be a single dose prescriber.
4. Hunt for activity-thermal-thirst axis.
5. Know remedy-relationships.
6. Look out if the moon is a round.
7. Expect fevers , diarrhoeas or aggravations.
8. Know homoeopathic parameters.(improvement in generals)
BOOKS OF DR.PRAFULL G.VIJAYAKAR...
LETS GROW TOGETHER & LET US MARCH TOWARDS UNITY IN HOMOEOPATHY.
-DR.PRAFULL G. VIJAYAKAR
DR. RAJAN SANKARAN MD (Hom),FSHom (UK):
He started his Homoeopathic practise in 1981.
Dr.Rajan brought up the Homoeopathy to the next level.
His thinking & concepts helped the whole Homoeopathic community to grow.
He is reputed to be a clear and original thinker and is best known for his path breaking concepts in homoeopathy.
His understanding of disease as a delusion and then further delving into unraveling the essential and most fundamental experience of a patient, the vital sensation.
This method of unraveling this core experience of the patient, “the Sensation method” has resulted in a far greater predictability of results than ever before.
With the advent of this method, homoeopathic case taking has delved from a mere collection of symptoms to a system based approach thereby resulting in a paradigm shift in homoeopathy.
This method has made us more aware of the exact source language of the remedy. Described as the cutting edge in homoeopathy, the Sensation method has revolutionized the practice of homoeopathy in several parts of the world.
A VERY SHORT DESCRIPTION ABOUT SENSATION METHOD:(FROM DR.SANKARAN’S OWN EXPLANATION)
Common sensation the Vital Sensation as it is something deeper to the mind and body . Vital level is a step deeper than mental state.
As for example when a person says that he feels jealous or suspicious or expresses something mental and emotional then we might ask him for the experience behind that. He may feel he is being attacked and is frightened. In this way an emotional situation is perceived behind the mental symptom, which is good enough, but if you want to take it one step further you ask him how he experiences the attack.
At this point you come to the intersection or cross point where the mind and body meet. Here they may have the feeling that something is breaking or burning or twisting. This is the common point between body and mind (The Vital Sensation) and here he will describe his emotional symptoms and physical symptoms in the same terms. This is a very deep level and if you reach this point there is a much better chance of success.
Importance of the the chief complaint:
The chief complaint represents the crystallization of the Vital Sensation. Hence it is the best place to locate the Vital Sensation. It is the fountainhead where all the vital phenomena are expressed in their raw form.
Sensation & reaction:
Patient may express sensation directly or may express the reaction(which is exactly opposite to the sensation) or compensation.
(e.g) for sensation, reaction & compensation:
If the sensation is ‘caught up’ or ‘stuck’ the active reaction will be to want to move, the passive reaction will be being immobile or unable to move, while the compensation will be a person who is always on the move.
The modalities essentially speak the same language as the sensation. For example, if the sensation is of being caught the modality is better from movement. If the sensation is of being tightened the modality is better by loosening. In this way the modalities will also confirm the sensation.
The modalities essentially speak the same language as the sensation. For example, if the sensation is of being caught the modality is better from movement. If the sensation is of being tightened the modality is better by loosening. In this way the modalities will also confirm the sensation.
Dreams ,fears ,hobbies all has the same sensation. we can confirm the sensation by enquiring all those things.
CLASSIFICATION OF KINGDOM BY VITAL SENSATION:
If the key issue is
• sensitivity-Plant;
•survival –Animal
•structure-Mineral
Plant kingdom is explained in the book ‘INSIGHT INTO PLANTS-3 PLANTS’.
Animal kingdom is explained in’SURVIVAL-MOLLUSC & REPTILES’.
Mineral kingdom in ‘STRUCTURE-2 VOLUMES’
RAJAN’S CONCEPT OF MIASM:
The intensity, pace and depth of this sensation or how he copes with it indicate the miasm.
The miasm is the other component in the disease. So the disease has two components, viz. the type of the sensation and the depth of the sensation. The sensation and miasm together give the remedy.
(e.g) THE MIASMATIC SPECTRUM
ACUTE -Panic, (Aco.)
TYPHOID - Critical, (Bry.)
PSORA -Struggle, (Sulph.) Psorinum
MALARIA -Intermittent, (Chin.)
RINGWORM -Trying (Calc-s) Ringworm
SYCOSIS - Fixity , (Thuja) , Medorrhinum
CANCER - Perfection, (Nit.ac)
TUBERCULAR - Change, (Calc-p) Bacillinum
LEPROSY - Isolation, (Sec-Cor)
SYPHILIS - Destruction, (Merc.)
Acute miasm:
The feeling is of an acute threat and the reaction is strong and instinctive.Some remedies: Aconitum, Belladonna, Stramonium, Veratrum-album, Arnica, Croton-tig, Chocolate
Note: I had earlier classified Hyoscyamus as belonging to the acute miasm. With my further work on miasms I classified it as a typhoid miasm remedy.

Sensation: Sudden, intense, acute, violent threat to life.
Reaction: Violent, instinctive, strong , urgent.
Depth: Acute, critical.
Degree of desperation: Do or die! Critical
Pace: Sudden, rapid, violent.
Pattern: Comes suddenly, last short time, ends suddenly, either in death or recovery.
Attitude of the patient: Childlike, instinctive, violent.

Level 2
Local symptoms, Location, Modalities, Sensations
Practice at levels of symptom. If patient complains of congestion in chest, aggravated by movement then give Bryonia.
Practice at levels of symptom. If patient complains of congestion in chest, aggravated by movement then give Bryonia.
Level 3
Feelings, Concomitants, i.e. General effects of the Local symptoms.
Practise at level of emotions. If a patient has disappointment in love then give Ignatia or Natrum Mur.
Practise at level of emotions. If a patient has disappointment in love then give Ignatia or Natrum Mur.
Level 4
Delusions, N E I, Cravings, Sleep, General modalities
From the level of emotions I studied more deeper to the level of delusions. If a patient has fear of dark, ask him, so how do you feel like in dark?
I feel I am in a dangerous jungle in which there are animals, which will get me, and you give Stramonium.
So you are prescribing on imaginations, which seemed to me the deepest level earlier. Though the success rate increased drastically, but obviously that was not deep enough the level because there were still many failures.

Level 5
General sensations and affections.
Then came the idea of plants. In plants we couldn't connect the idea with remedies from same family just based on the mind symptoms. I couldn't find connection between Pulsatilla and Staphysagria, etc there had to be another level to make this connection and that was the sensation.

Level 6
General movements and patterns
But if we have failure even after that we have to look at one level deeper that is energy and that is what we should focus on now.
The Energy level is non-specific for kingdom and not specific for remedy, which means if you understand the energy pattern of a remedy, then that energy pattern is not just specific for that remedy only.
The energy pattern is not giving us the remedy but if you touch the energy then the sensation becomes very sharp and clear and everything opens up in the case.
THE REMEDY LIES AT THE LEVEL OF SENSATION..
NON-HUMAN SPECIFICS IN CASE TAKING:
In every level you will find nonhuman specific words or gestures. But at the level of sensation and energy, you will find ONLY that. At this level it is completely devoid of all human expression.Then it is most clearly visible, with complete clarity and completely exposedwithout any human clothes on it.
(e.g)
When we ask, what is your problem?
The patient says, he experiences some kind of sharp pain in his chest.
Sharp is not human specific.
A human being should not have to deal with sharp.
Sharp can be anything that is sharp.
When we ask, what is your problem?
The patient says, he experiences some kind of sharp pain in his chest.
Sharp is not human specific.
A human being should not have to deal with sharp.
Sharp can be anything that is sharp.
If u enquire more about sharp without using what the patient is not used you can get more non-specific human words & enquiry of this will lead to the sensation which is the core of the patient.
Proof of any method is success of that method. Many successful cases are given in his books.
Have to study all the books of Dr. Rajan to understand his system & to practise it successfully.
BOOKS OF DR.RAJAN..
DR. AMARSINHA D.NIKAM..
Before talking about Dr.Amar d nikam i would like to put few questions before you...
IS HOMOEOPATHIC HOSPITAL IS POSSIBLE???With out injection, saline, ICU/CCU,Surgery!!!!!
Is severe acute pathological conditions (like Myocardial Infarction, acute appendicitis) can be managed with homoeopathy??(without aid of allopathy)
Is chronic diseases where severe pathological changes occur(even organs failure) can be cured with homoeopathy??
ANSWER for all above is YES,CAN!!!.
I didn’t say it by my blind confident upon homoeopathy...
When you go through the books of Dr. Amar d nikam you can get the explanation...
When we understand the homoeopathy as it is..when we understand the each words of Hahnemann...when we understand our material medica..when we understand the concept of MIASMS....Its possible!!!
Is general medicinal subjects like pathology, medicine, O.G, Surgery are necessary to homoeopathy??This is the question in the mind of most of the students of homoeopathy...we can get the importance of those things in homoeopathy through the experience of Dr. Amar d nikam.
Unique & only existant Homoeopathic Hospital worldwide’Aditya homoeopathic hospital and healing cener’ is an innovative establishment of Dr.A.D.Nikam.
He cured lot of chronic pathological state with a classical homoeopathy. He used single medicine , only 30 potency that too in minimum amount & repetition in his 30years of successful practice.
He presented lot of cases in his books. He cured many cases of liver cirrhosis where the patients are advised to transplant the liver by allopaths.
He cured many cases of renal failures, AIDS, Wilson’s d/s, diabetic gangrene etc.
‘Congenital defects are beyond the scope of homoeopathy’!!! Dr.A.M.Nikam disproved this too...
He cured the cases of congenital cyanotic heart disease & Ventricular septal defect.
These are just an examples..there are lots of examples in his books.
WHAT IS THE SECRET BEHIND HIS PRESCRIPTION??
Nothing just a Hardwork of 20 yrs to understand the homoeopathy..
He gives importance to totality including pathological changes. He finalise the remedy with the help of thermals&miasms.
For Selection of a proper Homoeopathic medicine thermals are very important part of totality of symptoms.Totality is inadequate& incomplete without the thermal modalities.
‘SIMILIA SIMILIBUS CURENTUR’
CHILLY PTàCHILLY MEDICINE
He explains about thermals of a 284 drugs in his book’RESEARCH IN THERMAL MATERIA MEDICA.’
IF THE PATIENT IS THERMALLY HOT, THEN DON’T EVEN THINK OF CHILLY REMEDIES.
MIASMS...
He explains about miasms in ‘THE NEW RESEARCH IN MANIFESTATION OF MIASM ( IN D/S,MEDICINE & MIND).
Miasm of a disease is depend upon the stage of disease & the pathological change in that stage.
INDISPOSITION:
False presentation of disease like symptoms expressed by vitalforce when the system is overloaded.
(e.g)bodyache due to overexertion.
PSORA:
An effect of psora doesnot create structural changes or severe pathological changes in the human body.But it creates abnormal functional changes.(e.g)scabies.
SYCOSIS:
Manifestation of abnormal contraction, abnormal dilatation, induration ,abnormal tissue growth or abnormal hypertrophy.(e.g)Mitral stenosis.
SYPHILIS:
All types of destructive pathological diseases are the symbolic expression of effect of syphilitic miasm. Before doing destruction,syphilis will represent inflammation & cut off the nourishment & oxygen supply at cellular level.(e.g)M.I, gangrene, organ failure.
TUBERCULAR:
B/W Sycosis & syphilis.Creates great disturbance in cellular functions weakening the cell & forgets to reproduce cellular cloning & repairing.(e.g)osteoarthritis,spondylosis.
He explains miasms of 1147 diseases in his book.
MIASM IN MEDICINE:
There is no acute remedy, chronic remedy & there is no remedy that is indicating any particular miasm.
Every medicine has all 4 miasmatic manifestations. But strength differs.
(e.g) we consider merc.,as a syphilitic drug. It represents 35% syphilitic d/s,25% sycotis d/s,25% tubercular &15 %psoric..so merc can cured even psoric ,sycotic, tubercular states if symptoms corresponds to the medicine.
BOOKS OF DR.A.M.NIKAM..
HOMOEOPATHY AN ENDLESS ART!!!
ABOUT PREDICTIVE HOMOEOPATHY...
Dr.Vijayakar happens to be the 1st homoeopathic physician in the world to have gone in the depth of embryology & tapped the significance of Hering’s law.
He is the 1st Homoeopath to correlate all the life sciences with homoeopathy. Thus he built a bridge between homoeopathy & life sciences.
He is known for his expertise in face reading, body language and intuitive prescriptions. However even his speedy, snap-shot prescriptions, though appearing intuitive have a complete scientific reasoning & explanation to mathematical accuracy and details.
Dr.Vijayakar took up the challenge of showing to the world of homoeopathy how homoeopathy is a complete system of medicine & science behind the homoeopathy. He stresses on the importance of a thorough knowledge of life sciences like Anatomy,Physiology,Biochemistry,Embryology & Genetics in treating diseases.
His success and the incredible results in incurable & hopeless cases are on account of “Miasm as defence process at the genetic level”that he takes into consideration in every case as also “Law of cure”.
LAW OF CURE...
He correlate the law of cure with embryological development of the human being and this has made the law of cure crystal clear.
SUCCESSFUL PRESCRIBING...
It is common difficulties for the beginners and practitioners that what should be given importance to while taking a case. There are different homeopaths with different approach.
Example: -
Some
1) view a case from its pathology
2) Consideration of the mind only, details of the person
3) The physicals of the person
4) Characteristics / PQRS in a case
Again it is observed that the totality contains an alternating image, or one set of symptoms at one time and a different set another time. The prescriber’s view may be formed from one group today and from another after the change, which leads to change of remedy with every shift, but at the end of the year the patient has grow steadily worse. Yet he has cured (?) Each group of symptoms of his patient satisfactory.
Even there are various school which promoters different way of practice. Every homeopath or school talks of
(a) how well to take a case
(b) how to analyze
(c) what to prescribe?
Very few talk about the process of cure; few are concerned with the follow-up, analysis of the case. If every one with different approach talks about cure, then what is cure? Who of them are right or wrong homeopath? How will you judge the cure?
Only the follow-up of a case tells! What one has to see in the follow up are again great difficulties? It is rightly said, “eyes do not see, until mind perceives”. If a person visits a painting exhibition and if he is unaware of what is to be seen in painting, he will not understand the beauty or mistake of that painting.
Same way, if we know what one has to perceive in follow-up he can a avoid a mistake of careless prescribing, know the right direction of cure and be sure that he has given right or wrong remedy.
Three things are very important in follow-up: -
A) Proof of similimum :-
Cure is reaction of the vital force against the rightly chosen remedy the cure take place. If a right homeopathic stimulus is given it works in few minutes.•1st thing to see in general sense of well being: Patient takes interest in surrounding, he has desired to read, eat, and study.•2nd thing is disappearance of weakness•3rd thing appetite, sleep improved•4th thing constipation has to improve.
This is very important, to be healthy our body has to eliminate waste products, clear the toxins in the form of stools, urine and perspiration.•5th thing increase in tolerance to aggravating factors example cold food, drinks, dust.•6th thing decrease in sensitivity to rudeness, offense•7th thing disappearance of pain and also disappearance of symptoms by hering’s law of cure.
B) Hering’s law of cure :-
It is the most important thing to be seen in almost all the cases except in incurable cases where irreversible pathological changes have taken place. Even in such cases compensatory cure can be established.
Example: if a patient is under the treatment of cancer and he gets diabetes, its no problem? Let him leave with diabetes that is his compensatory cure.
Homeopathy is not complete without Hahnemann’s law of similar and hering’s law of cure. It is guiding point to understand the prognosis of patient in disease as wall as cure.
It is interesting to know that hering’s law of cure is based on embryology. (above mentioned chart)The development of embryo, growth and maintenance of human being corresponds to the corollaries of this law of cure. Dr. P. Vijaykar in his book, “theory of suppression” has explained it beautifully.
In fact, one will wonder how intelligent Dr. Hering was. In those time inspite of no microscope or knowledge of embryology in depth he formulated this law which is base of foundation of homeopathy.

C) Chart of suppression :-
Very few homeopaths are aware that homeopathic medicines can also to dangerous suppression?
It is rightly said, “all that glitters is not gold, all symptoms that disappear are not cured”
Every one knows the universal law of thermodynamics.
“Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it has to be transformed from one form to another”.
Universe is a bundle of energy and we are part of it. This law is even applicable to disease, energy and functioning of human body. Disease doesn’t disappear. It is produced in body because of disturbance in this energy. How can it disappear? It has to be transformed. Disturbing energy or force has to be seen in some form i.e. More important organs to less important organs and from center to periphery in the process of cure.
On the basis of hering’s law of cure Dr. Vijaykar has formed this seven-layer chart of suppression. This chart can then be used productively like a compass to gauze the direction of law of cure. This chart will help us to understand what path diseases take in the organs and systems in the mathematical progress of diseases. It can predict what is going to happen after right or wrong homeopathic stimulus.
It is important to remember that a real sense of well being is always accompanied by disappearance of physical symptoms in the right order. It is one of the best means of ascertaining which is the most important prescription is curative or suppressive. It will give definite guideline as to which is the most important organ and which is less important organ.
If patient is taking treatment for acidity, and he gets urinary tract or backache? If he is under treatment of asthma, he gets psoriasis? Whether it is right or wrong? Is it suppression or cure?
To achieve gentle cure it is important to give right constitutional similimum. How to arrive at this? This can be achieved if possession of human being. We as a homeopath doctor are dealing with the most valuable possession of human being i.e. Life. We have no right to play with it on the basis of speculation and theories. Homeopath as is wrongly believed is not just a symptom reliever. He treats, “man in diseases and not disease in men”. He is more like a consultant than a general practitioner treating cold is, cough and acidity.
If we are treating man as a whole we have to understand the internal mechanism of man.

It is necessary to understand.
How he is developed? ------------------------------ Embryology
How he functions? ----------------------------------- Physiology
What happens in disease? ----------------------- Pathology
What happens in cure? --------------------------- Immunology
How he is different from others? --------- Genetics
Proper understanding and knowledge of all these sciences can help us to know human being and treat him with any kind of diseases even if it is diabetes, cancer, thyroid, Parkinson’s etc.

Proper understanding and knowledge of all these sciences can help us to know human being and treat him with any kind of diseases even if it is diabetes, cancer, thyroid, Parkinson’s etc.
Now the science has advanced so much that we are fortunate to understand every mechanism of man. 200 years back dr. Hahnemann said in his book of “the chronic diseases” preface to volume 4th that, “we have no means of reaching with our senses or of gaining essential knowledge as to the process of life in the interior of man…”“Therefore we have to draw speculative conclusions … As to the manner in which it may have occurred or taken place, that we are unable to furnish conclusive proof of our explanation…” Dr. Hahnemann confessed that he was helpless because of the absence of the advanced “human related” medical sciences such as genetics, embryology, immunology etc.
In fact, we are fortunate enough to have the knowledge f these sciences to help us to reach in the interior of man for treating man. These sciences are foundation, direction for analyzing progression of cases.
There is a fathomless chasm existing between homeopathic principles and science. Knowledge of these sciences will give us a strong foundation to remove homeopathy from the age-old confinement of being a blind symptom based science or a mystic science and introduce it to the world as a post-modern scientific science. With this we can put forth before the homeopathic world a concrete way of practicing homeopathy which if properly understand will reduce to a great extent he element of uncertainty and low success rate prevailing for centuries in homeopathic practice.
Importance of human sciences in homeopathic practice –
1) Knowledge of embryology helps us to understand the importance of hering’s law of cure. 2) Knowledge of physiology will make us understand why weakness after homeopathic remedy is a bad sign? Why we abandon ointments, eyes drop strong deodorant etc. Why the symptoms aggravate during moon phases? Do we have to repeat or not?
3) Knowledge of immunology – as you all know, immunity in our body is due to protein balance. So definitely any impairment in protein balance will decrease an immunity, which further leads to disease. So what are these factors?
4) Knowledge of genetics - as you all knows, it is genes, which are responsible for our physical makeup, mental makeup and general makeup. Knowledge of this will help us to understand genetic constitutional similimum. How every individual is different from others? Hahnemann said it is individualization, which is a base of homeopathic prescription.
Dr. P. Vijaykar in his book “theory of suppression” part1 – explained in details the importance of this science in homeopathic practice. Reading this book will lesson the uncertainty prevailing in prescribing and follow-ups and thus increase the scope of homeopath from cough and colds to treatment of cancers. Our school of homeopathy hopes to rectify all that is wrong in the homeopathic class by bridging the gap between the principal and modern science.
Applied physiology helps us to understand the importance of thermals, generals like thirst, perspiration etc., In assessing the constitution. Knowledge of physiology will give an insight to treat mental disorders or failure to treat a case when based on only emotional prescription

ReplyDeleteYour question on getting pain in animals is....
Animals can “talk” to you if you know how to read their body language.
for eg.,
Horses in pain become restless and paw at the ground. They may look at the painful area and try to kick at it or roll around in the dirt. If the pain is very severe, they may refuse to move and prefer to stand with their head drooping. These are all common signs of abdominal pain, or colic, in horses.
Cattle frequently grind their teeth when they are in pain. They may groan when they get up or take only shallow breaths. In dairy cows, a drop in milk production is often a reaction to a painful hoof .
Birds will frequently pluck their feathers from a painful area. It should be noted however, that feather plucking, also called feather picking, can be a behavioral problem seen in otherwise healthy birds.
Dogs and cats generally show a change in behavior or temperament when they’re uncomfortable. A normally happy and affectionate pet may become irritable and refuse to be held or petted. A normally rambunctious dog may prefer to sit or lie quietly and be left alone. Additionally, if a dog or cat can reach the painful area, such as a paw, they may lick, scratch, or bite it in an attempt to make it feel better. Unfortunately, they may inadvertently inflict self-injury by repeatedly rubbing or scratching the area. This is seen frequently in animals with ear infections that dig at the skin behind the sore ear with their rear claws.
MOREOVER WE HAVE TO KNOW THEIR SYSTEM (ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY ).IN HUMANS FOR EXAMPLE PAIN IN ANY JOINT WE CAN GET THESE SYMPTOM IN BOTH SUBJECTIVE AND OBJECTIVE WAYS IF YOU PERCEIVED THAT IN OBJECTIVE WAY MEANS IT BY YOUR EXAMINATION. IN SAME MANNER WE HAVE TO CHECK IN ANIMALS THROUGH THE CLINICAL EXAMINATION(OBJECTIVE).THROUGH THEIR "BEHAVIOR".
HISTORY WE CAN GET FROM OWNER OF THE PET.
YOU MAY SEEN THROUGH ROADS A DOG WALKING WITH A HALF BENT LEGS, YOU KNOW THAT ITS MAY DUE ANY INJURY BCOZ OF THROWING STONES ON THEM.
SUPPOSE IF IT IS AFFECTED BY ANY JT COMPLAINT, DOG WALK LIKE POLIO ATTACKED PERSON. ON CLINIC IT IS DIFFICULT TO MAKE THE DOG LEG STRAIGHT OR WHEN ATTENDING TO DO THAT DOG DOESNT LET YOU TO DO.IF DO THAT IN A NORMAL ONE U KNOW IT BECOME PET TO YOU.
THIS ARE SOME OF THEM HOW TO GET THE AREA OF AFFECTION.THEN WE CAN GET CHANGEABILITY ETC...
ACTUALLY UP-TO ME IT IS EASY TO GET THAT SYMPTOM IN ANIMALS BY SEEING ITSELF, IT IS DIFFICULT TO FIND IN HUMANS
Explaining regarding just pain itself bore for u. I tried my blade to small level i think so.
IF THE AFFECTION IN DIFFERENT SYSTEM WE GET THROUGH THEIR SYMPTOMS LIKE STOOL , URINE HABIT CHANGES ETC...
habits...
