Conventional Treatment and Side Effects
What are the main conventional treatments for kidney cancer? Here are some examples:
Surgery: The most common way is through surgery that includes either partial or total kidney removal. Side effects caused by this may be pain, infection, and bleeding.
Targeted Therapy: Pills that target important cancer phases are used for this purpose. The therapy is associated with complaints of normal side effects such as fatigue, diarrhea, and high blood pressure among patients.
Immunotherapy: With the help of the new immune augmentation technologies, there is a chance that the body may attack the cancer with the immune system loaded. Consequently, the treatment is accompanied by side effects such as fatigue, skin rashes, and symptoms similar to that of flu.
Radiation Therapy: It is a type of targeted therapy that deals with the destruction of cancer cells. There could be some targets that are used to destroy the cancer cells in radiation therapy, and they are often the components of the human body, so in response to them, some side effects may develop on the skin including irritation and fatigue.
Kidney Cancer Treatment & Advantages of Using Homeopathy:
Holistic Approach: Homeopathy not only treats the disease but the person as a whole, the same rule applies to the treatment of Kidney Cancer also. Homeopathic medicines address the physical and emotional aspects of the person to treat the root cause of the disease and provide holistic relief.
Individualized Treatment: Homeopathic medicines are prescribed based on the characteristics and symptoms of each cancer case giving each case its individuality. Hence no two cases suffering from the same kind of cancer may get the same medicine.
Gentle and Non-invasive: Homeopathic medicines are derived from natural resources, hence they are free from any side effects and do not produce any harsh effects on the body like Chemotherapy.
Supportive Care: Homeopathy helps minimize the side effects of chemotherapy and boosts the immune system of the cancer patient to fight this toughest battle.

Arsenicum Album: This remedy tantalizes the thoughts of patients who have the sensations of burning pain, restlessness, and anxiety.
Conium Maculatum: A medicine that can be used for hard, painful tumors or recent injury to a painful area is called Conium Maculatum.
