What is an aggravation in homeopathy?
An aggravation is a temporary increase in your symptoms. This may occur as the remedy strengthens your system. As your system gets stronger, it is able to bring symptoms to the surface, and then move them out of your body. You may experience them as being intensified when they are on the surface. This generally lasts a short time – 15 minutes to 48 hours. This is a good sign that the remedy is correct and it is a natural process of homeopathy treatment, hence one should not confuse it with side effects. Please ask the doctor if you have any concern regarding this and he/she would be glad to clear your concerns with the treatment process.
