It is always good to seek professional help so that you will know the status of your health in relation to the disease.  However for instances wherein you cannot afford the treatment, you can always try  home remedy treatments   to give you chance of removing the disease at the same time using all natural products.

Natural remedies are prepared by the medicine that lies within a plant. Almost all plants, flowers, trees and herbs have some type of medicinal properties. The great thing is that most of the medicines made from these sources have no side effect if taken in appropriate manner. A lot of pharmacy medicines have a negative affect on your body. For example antibiotics are good for attacking the infection but they have different side affects like damaging the immune system and more dangerous side affects like blood disorder can also be caused by them. You can adjust the medicine dosage according to your requirements.
