Question 1

can there be any herbal treatment of anal fissure (a wound in anus rectum)?

Accepted Answer

Yes but don't buy it: There are many herbal "treatments" on the internet that will take your money.  Truth is most early fissures will heal on their own if you ensure that your bms are soft (fluid + fiber) and soak after bms and give it some time.  Chronic fissures benefit from any med that paralyzes the anal muscle and relieves the spasm caused by the painful fissure.  Rarely do you need surgery for a stubborn fissure.

Question 2

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Anal sores: Could you be referring to fissures, fistula, abscess? Sexually transmitted disease (syphilis, gc, hiv, etc.) should be considered. Hemorrhoids & rectal prolapse can appear as an outward bulging. Anal trauma of any kind may cause mechanical injury. Skin eruptions need to be considered. Evaluation is recommended to distinguish serious versus less concerning reasons for your problem as described.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

No: It is a rare disorder of the motor cells (control muscle) in the spinal cord that occurs in youth, progresses for several years then stabilizes. There is no treatment for it. A neurologist can counsel you further.

Question 8

herbal treatment for body itchy?

Accepted Answer

Over-the-counter: Drug stores have over-the-counter creams that have no "medications" like skin anesthetics, to relieve itching. One can consider the creams containing some type of menthol to be herbal. Such creams and oils have be used for many years, maybe even centuries. The ones in stores now are just the modern versions of them. Sometimes, general itching is due to internal disease, so a doctor should check.

Question 9

any herbal treatment for allergies?

Accepted Answer

Beware: Many herbal medicines make claims with anecdotal evidence but not scientific double blind study. Placebo effect works about 35% of the time!

Question 10

None: Bedwetting is a normal developmental stage for many children and is now considered normal up into the teens. One or both parents usually have a history of bedwetting. No herbs have been shown to help in clinical trials.
