Tremors and Unani Treatment


Tremor is an unintentional, somewhat rhythmic, muscle movement involving to-and-fro movements (oscillations) of one or more parts of the body. It is the most common of all involuntary movements and can affect the hands, arms, head, face, vocal cords, trunk, and legs. Most tremors occur in the hands. In some people, tremor is a symptom of another neurological disorder. The most common form of tremor, however, occurs in otherwise healthy people. Although tremor is not life-threatening, it can be embarrassing to some people and make it harder to perform daily tasks.

What causes tremor?
Tremor is generally caused by problems in parts of the brain that control muscles throughout the body or in particular areas, such as the hands. Neurological disorders or conditions that can produce tremor include mutiple sclerosis, stroke, traumatic brain injury, and neurodegenerative diseases that damage or destroy parts of the brainstem or the cerebellum. 
According to Unani Medicine it may occur due to weakness of Asaab e Dimag and lack of circulation in Dimag.
Other causes include the use of some drugs (such as amphetamines, corticosteroids, and drugs used for   certain psychiatric disorders), alcohol abuse or withdrawal, mercurypoisoning, overactive thyroid, or liver failure. Some forms of tremor are inherited and run in families, while others have no known cause.
Characteristics may include a rhythmic shaking in the hands, arms, head, legs, or trunk; shaky voice; difficulty writing or drawing; or problems holding and controlling utensils, such as a fork. Some tremors may be triggered by or become exaggerated during times of stress or strong emotion, when the individual is physically exhausted, or during certain postures or movements.
Tremor may occur at any age but is most common in middle-aged and older persons. It may be occasional, temporary, or occur intermittently. Tremor affects men and women equally.

Stomatitis and Unani Treatment

Oral inflammation and ulcers, known as stomatitis, may be mild and localized or severe and widespread. They are invariably painful. Stomatitis may involve swelling and redness of the oral mucosa or discrete, painful ulcers (single or multiple). Less commonly, whitish lesions form, and, rarely, the mouth appears normal (burning mouth syndrome) despite significant symptoms. Symptoms hinder eating, sometimes leading to dehydration and malnutrition. Secondary infection occasionally occurs. Some conditions are recurrent. Stomatitis may be caused by local infection, systemic disease, a physical or chemical irritant, or an allergic reaction. many cases are idiopathic. Because the normal flow of saliva protects the mucosa against many insults, xerostomia predisposes the mouth to stomatitis of any cause. The  most common specific causes overall include Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS)—also called recurrent aphthous ulcers (RAU) Viral infections, particularly herpes simple...

AJWAIN FOR WEIGHT LOSS

There is a trend in the supplement world toward herbal weight loss. Many people assume that an herbal supplement is automatically safe, and that isn't true. Compound that with the fact than some people ascribe fat-burning or appetite-suppressant qualities to whatever herb happens to be in vogue, and you end up with many disappointed dieters with empty wallets. Ajwain is one such herb. No reputable source makes any weight-loss claims in connection with it, yet people still turn to it in the quest for a leaner body. Ajwain  Ajwain, also known as Bishop's Weed, has been used as a cooking spice in the Middle East, India and China for centuries.

Uses Besides being a cooking spice, ajwain has been used in Ayurvedic and Unani m...
