Age is a large contributor to disorders of the knee, due to the weakness of tissues overtime. Knee pain can also be caused by a number of other ways, including: fractures, accidents, injuries and constant strain on the knee. When heavy stress is applied to the knee, it is damaging the cartilage. Those who frequently run and lift weights are especially susceptible to this type of knee pain. Muscle weakness and being overweight can also contribute to the wear and tear of the knee.

Patients usually complain of a painful and swollen knee. Modern medicine may help knee pain but only temporarily and with many unwanted knee injuries. Lifetime medication may be needed in regards to modern medicine.

There are a number of causes to spinal cord trauma, including vehicle accidents, falls, sports injuries, gunshot wounds and violence. Even aging can cause a spinal cord injury due to the body’s loss of ability to protect the spinal cord with the spinal canal.

Symptoms of spinal cord injury include:

• Breathing difficulties
• Loss of bowel and bladder control
• Numbness
• Sensory changes
• Increased muscle tone
• Pain
• Weakness and paralysis.

A CT scan or MRI of the spine usually shows the location and extent of the damage of the spinal cord. These scans can also reveal other problems like blood clots.

Modern medicine provides no cure for spinal cord injuries. It only tries to cover up symptoms like pain. Other modern tactics include surgery which is very expensive, dangerous and not guaranteed to help. The recovery time of surgeries can also be very long.

Fortunately, natural remedies do exist to help aid spinal cord injuries.

Forms of brain injury include: brain damage, traumatic brain injury, stroke and acquired brain injury. Brain damage consists of the destruction of brain cells. There are a variety of causes, including illness and disorders. A large amount of brain damage would cause a traumatic brain injury following head injury from an outside source.

Traumatic brain injury, also known as intracranial injury, occurs when an external force greatly injures the brain. It is a major cause of death and disability worldwide, particularly in children and adolescents. Causes include falls, vehicle accidents and violence.

A stroke, known as a cerebrovascular accident, is the loss of brain function due to the lack of blood supply to the brain. There are a number of causes to this, including the lack of blood flow or a leakage of blood. As a result of the lack of blood to a particular area in the brain, the affected area cannot function which may result in paralysis of a limb(s), the inability to understand or formulate speech or the inability to see one side of the visual field. An acquired brain injury describes the brain damage when caused by events after birth, rather than as a part
of a genetic disorder.
Modern medicine has no cure for brain damage. Symptoms are attempted to be treated but the result is very little to no aid in the actual disorder itself. Fortunately, herbal remedies help for victims of brain damage. Contact Raif Emini,  Licensed Holistic Practitioner, Master of Alternative Medicine, PhD. in Natural Medicine.

• Backache
• Diarrhea
• Fatigue
• Headache
• Leg pain
• Fever
• Muscle stiffness
• Neck pain
• Skin rash and vomiting.

Symptoms usually last for about 2 weeks.

Paralytic polio affects the central nervous system and involves either partial or full paralysis of the body. Other symptoms include: fever, abnormal sensations, breathing difficulty, constipation,
drooling, headache, muscle spasms, muscle pain, muscle weakness and sensitivity to touch.

There is no cure for polio in modern medicine. Modern medicine attempts to control symptoms but does so with very little effect and with many unwanted side effects.

Fortunately, there is still hope for you if you are a sufferer of polo due to natural remedies. Contact Raif Emini,  Licensed Holistic Practitioner, Master of Alternative Medicine, PhD. in Natural Medicine.

Multiple sclerosis prevents nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord from communicating with each other effectively. MS causes the body’s own immune system to mistakenly attack and damage myelin, preventing the axons to conduct signals, which is the basis of communication in the central nervous system.

In modern medicine, no cure exists for multiple sclerosis. Modern medicine, however, attempts to treat it to prevent new attacks or disability. Unfortunately, the medications can have adverse effects and be simply ineffective.

Arthritis (from Greek arthro and itis) literally means joint inflammation. Arthritis consists of over 100 forms, the most common being osteoarthritis which is a result of trauma to the join, infection of the joint or natural aging. Sufferers of arthritis note that the joint pain is their biggest complaint.

The pain from arthritis is often due to inflammation that occurs around the joint daily wear and tear of the joint muscle strains caused by forceful movements against stiff, painful joints and fatigue. There consists of many diseases where joint pain is the main feature. Otherwise, the joint paint can be a symptom of other diseases, thus the arthritis is considered to be secondary to the main disease.

Common symptoms for arthritis disorders include: varied levels of pain, swelling, joint stiffness, and sometimes a constant ache around the joint. Arthritis is also one of the most common causes of disability. Some arthritic disorders can have an external effect on other organs, which may result in: the inability to use a hand or leg, malaise and fatigue, fever, weight loss, lack of sleep, muscle aches and pains, tenderness and difficulty of moving the joint.

Although arthritis causes pain which deters physical activity, it is important for the patient to not limit their physical activity to avoid the risks of: muscle weakness, loss of flexibility and decreased aerobic fitness. Arthritis can also deter the patient away from their normal social life, perhaps leading to a decreased involvement with his/her family and friends.

Medical doctors have no cure for arthritis. They just prescribe drugs to the patient that has more negative than positive effects (due to side effects). But wait! There still is hope as there is a natural cure for arthritis. Contact Raif Emini,  Licensed Holistic Practitioner, Master of Alternative Medicine, PhD. in Natural Medicine for more information.
