Acne is an inflammation of the sebaceous glands. Depending on the causes and clinical features of acne, the following types of acne are distinguished: common, necrotic, keloid, medical and professional. Most often occur, and above all at a young age, common acne, called acne.Usually common acne occurs during the development of secondary sexual characteristics, both in girls and boys. Parasitic fungi are microorganisms belonging to the chlorophyll-free lower plants. The ailments caused by them are called fungal diseases, or mycoses. These fungi can affect both the skin, hair, and nails. Fungal diseases can be quite easy, not bringing a person visible discomfort, but can be medium or severe forms, in which often affect internal organs, including the brain.

The young leaves of gladiccia contain the alkaloid triacanthine, in adult leaves - vitamin C, in beans - flavonoids, saponins and other substances, in the leaves (pods) of beans - anraglycosides, tannins and traces of vitamin K, in the fleshy walls of beans up to 29% sugar, in flowers - essential oil, which contains up to 85% eugenol and is used as an antiseptic for all mucous membranes. Triacanthin has a papaverine-like effect - dilates peripheral and coronary arteries of the heart, reduces blood pressure and relieves spasms of smooth muscles of abdominal organs.

Preparations of elecampane have a multifaceted action: pronounced expectorant, diuretic, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antibacterial, antibacterial, antifungal, antispasmodic, styptic, astringent, anti-allergic, mild diaphoretic and hypotensive, as well as increase the formation of bile and promote its excretion, excite the secretion of the stomach, intestines and pancreas, reduce intestinal motor function and improve digestion, reduce capillary permeability and improve blood thromboplastic function, stimulate the function of the ovaries and uterus.

Shingles are usually chronic skin diseases characterized by rashes of nodules. There are several varieties of lichen: red flat, bristlecone, pink, and others. Eczema is a chronic recurrent skin disease caused by a specific inflammation of mainly papillary layer of the skin. The basis for the development of the disease is a special predisposition of the body, which is explained by neurogenic and allergic mechanisms.Eczema often begins acutely and manifests itself by the eruption of vesicles, which quickly open. In their place, small pinpoint erosions with dew-like drops are formed.

Seborrhea is a pathological condition of the skin due to increased sebum secretion by sebaceous glands of altered chemical composition.Seborrhea has the first sign - a sharp increase in sebum secretion on the skin of the face, especially in the nasocutaneous (nasocranial) folds, on the skin of the scalp, back, chest. The skin of these areas is shiny from a large amount of sebum. Hair is greasy, sticking together in strands.Psoriasis, or scaly lichen, is a common chronic skin disease characterized by flaky rashes.Psoriasis has 3 stages of rash development: progressive, stationary and regressive. Psoriasis is characterized by the following signs: stearin spot phenomenon.

For skin disease, folk medicine uses the following medicines: Tinctures, decoctions, infusions and therapeutic ointments. For this purpose, medicinal herbs are used, such as burdock, willow, lilac. Also have a medicinal effect apples and lemon, which heal cracks and other lesions of the epidermis. Hair diseases are also treated by folk methods. It is necessary to wash the head with medicinal decoctions, which are prepared according to folk recipes. This will help get rid of dandruff, excessive greasiness of hair and split ends.Medicinal juices are used, for example, from lemon, spinach and birch. Nettle, fir and burdock are also useful.

Nowadays, the number of allergic diseases and the number of people suffering from these ailments has increased markedly. Let us focus on some of them. These include the well-known urticaria, Quincke's edema, allergic laryngitis, rhinitis, tracheitis, bronchitis, exudative diathesis, etc., etc., etc. Bronchial asthma belongs to severe allergic diseases. Sufferers of this infectious-allergic pathology are well aware that its manifestation is attacks of suffocation due to spasm of small bronchi. Choking attacks can occur when inhaling air contaminated with various harmful particles (smoke, including tobacco, gasoline, perfume, etc.). Bronchial asthma is accompanied by attacks of suffocation. More often the attack occurs suddenly and usually at night. Bronchial asthma is treated with medication and folk recipes.

Bedsores - pathological changes in tissues of dystrophic or ulcerative-necrotic nature, occur in lying weakened patients in places subjected to systematic pressure.At first, when bedsores occur, patients rarely complain of severe pain, more often they note a weak local soreness, a sense of numbness. With the development of the process on the type of wet necrosis dead tissues acquire a distinctive appearance, from under them separated from the stinky murky fluid, in the decaying tissues begin to multiply rapidly pathogenic microbes. Furunculosis, as it is known, - acute purulent-necrotic inflammation of the hair follicle and surrounding connective tissue due to the introduction of pathogenic microorganisms. Furunculosis has factors of origin: contamination of the skin, especially with chemicals (lubricating oils, cooling mixtures, etc.) dust particles. Bruises and wounds can be healed with the help of medicinal plants.

Hemorrhoids are enlargement of the cavernous bodies (veins) of the lower rectum and anus, accompanied by certain clinical symptoms. Acute hemorrhoids occur suddenly, usually after sharp pushing, defecation, great physical effort, alcohol intake, childbirth etc. Hemorrhoids has the first sign: the appearance of blood on fecal masses. In untreated cases hemorrhoids acquire a chronic course.In burns, a good effect can be achieved by using the following medicines: decoctions, ointments and poultices.In frostbite, a good result is obtained from the following folk remedies: decoctions of medicinal plants, infusions, medicinal collections and ointments.

Drock dye is a perennial semi-shrub of the legume family. Drok dye blooms in June-July. The fruits of Drok dye are linear beans. It is not eaten by animals. It grows in northern areas of Donetsk and Lugansk regions in pine forests, on their edges, on hillsides, mainly on limestone and sandy soil. The tops of the plant are used, which contain alkaloids, flavone glycoside luteolin, essential oil, saponins, organic acids, resins, tannins and other substances.

Decoction of goiter herb or fresh juice from leaves is used externally in the treatment of scrofula, sore throat, goiter, scabies, scabies, skin cancer, eczema, acne, rashes, child urticaria and fungal skin diseases. Ointment from the fruits, seeds and grass of goiter is used for eczema, psoriasis, pruritic dermatoses, scrofula, abscesses, carbuncles and pustular skin lesions. Fresh juice is used topically for tumors of the larynx and trachea (I.L. Blinkov).

Oncological diseases (tumors) are divided into benign and malignant (cancerous). In this chapter, we will consider cancerous diseases, in which drugs made on the basis of certain medicinal trees are used, of course, as a supplement to the appointments of specialists-oncologists.If there is a tumor of the oronasal organs, it is useful to take the following medicines: mulberry, black poplar, walnut, celandine large, hemlock large. If the patient has a tumor of the digestive organs, then it is necessary to use such recipes: medicinal collections, infusions on medicinal herbs and cleansing enemas.

Leukemias are malignant blood diseases. They are divided into acute and chronic. Leukemia - tumors arising from hematopoietic cells - necessarily affect the bone marrow. The causes of this cancerous pathology are still poorly understood. Acute leukemia is a serious and severe disease. What are the signs that can raise suspicion of this disease? Leukemia can begin with a high fever. At the same time there is a hemorrhagic syndrome: nosebleeds, hemorrhages under the skin, the appearance of black stool (due to digestion of blood in the gastrointestinal tract) or with an admixture of fresh blood in it. Chronic leukemia, first of all, the lymph nodes increase, which is visible on examination of the patient. Anemia progresses.

Prostate cancer has similar symptoms as in adenoma of this organ. In this disease, folk remedies are recommended. Prepare an infusion: 1 teaspoon of crushed bark (taken from the inner part of the branches) per 50 ml of boiling water, insist 1 hour, strain. Collection from prostate cancer (1 tablespoon of crushed raw material) pour 1 cup of boiling water and boil for 1 minute, insist 30 minutes. Take medicine for prostate cancer 1/2 cup 3 times a day for 15-20 minutes before meals. Collection from prostate cancer (1 tablespoon of crushed raw materials) pour 1 cup of boiling water and boil for 1 minute. Infused for 30 minutes. With one or another malignant pathology of the female intimate sphere, folk medicine recommends the following recipes. Cut bark from young oak branches, dry, crush. 1 tablespoon of raw materials brew 1 cup of boiling water, boil 2 times, steamed for 3 hours in a warm place, tightly wrapped. Prepare the composition: 70% alcohol - 0.5 liters, honey - 0.5, glucose solution 40% - 20 ml, crushed birch buds and valerian root - 50 g each, walnut septum - from 1 kg of fruit.

The therapeutic efficacy of plants is due to the content in them of a large complex of diverse and complex in its chemical composition and therapeutic effect of active active substances. Alkaloids are substances produced by plants and are complex nitrogen-containing compounds of basic character. Their chemical structure is very diverse.In different species of plants alkaloids accumulate unevenly, and in conifers they are almost nonexistent. Especially rich in alkaloids are plants of the nightshade and poppy families. Alkaloids in the same plants can vary in the amount of their content depending on the time of year and place of their growth.The amount of alkaloids in plants is usually small: from traces to 2-3% of the dry weight of the plant (in cinchona bark they are up to 16%).

Glycosides are substances produced by plants that consist of two components, a sugar part and a non-sugar part, or aglycon. Glycosides are widespread in the plant world and can be found in all parts of plants, easily broken down into the sugar part and aglycone in the presence of water and enzymes (or enzymes). Cardiac glycosides have an effect on the heart muscle and have the greatest use in medicine. Bitter glycosides, or bitters, are substances of plant origin. They have a bitter taste and have a certain physiological effect on the body - increase the secretory activity of the gastrointestinal tract, contribute to the excitement of appetite and improve digestion. Saponins (from Latin Sapo - soap) - glycosides that do not contain nitrogen in their composition, found in plants most often. Saponins are well soluble in water and alcohol.

Polysaccharides - complex carbohydrates, a numerous and widespread group of organic compounds, along with proteins and fats, necessary for the vital activity of animal and plant organisms. Polysaccharides are one of the main sources of energy formed as a result of metabolism of the organism.Gummi - colloidal translucent, mostly sticky substances of different chemical composition. Gum is based on polysaccharides with calcium, magnesium and potassium salts of saccharocamedium acids.Mucilages contained in plants are nitrogen-free substances, different in their chemical composition, close to pectins and cellulose. Pectins are from the Greek pektos, meaning coagulated, condensed. Pectins are part of the intercellular, gluing substance, they are close to gum and mucilage. Starch is the end product of assimilation of carbonic acid by plants and is deposited mainly in tubers and fruits of plants.Fiber, or cellulose, is a complex carbohydrate belonging to the group of non-sugar-like polysaccharides.

Essential oils are volatile, strong smelling substances produced by plants and are most often mixtures of various chemical compounds derived from terpenes. There are 2,500 known essential oil-producing plants in the world. Essential oils are greasy to the touch, but differ from fatty oils in their volatility, similar to ether, which is where their name comes from. Essential oils are found in various parts of plants - in flowers, leaves, fruits, and sometimes in underground parts. Organic acids are organic compounds with the properties of acids, formed in the body as a result of biochemical processes. They are contained dissolved in the cell sap of many plants, are found in the form of salts, and often in the free state, accumulating in significant quantities in seeds, fruits, berries, as well as in the roots, leaves and stems of some plants. The most common organic acids in plants are malic, citric, tartaric, oxalic, salicylic, formic, acetic and other acids.

Vitamins (from Latin vita - life and amine - nitrogen compound) are biologically active organic substances, different in their chemical nature and physiological action, necessary for the processes of assimilation by the body of all food substances, for the growth and restoration of cells and tissues and for other vital processes.It is well known that in diseases, especially infectious diseases, liver diseases, pregnancy, the need for vitamins increases. For example, in diseases of the cardiovascular system, the need for ascorbic acid is greater the more severe and active the process. Vitamin deficiency disrupts metabolism, reduces performance, causes rapid fatigue, worsens the nervous system and causes other painful phenomena.

Every plant and animal organism contains all known chemical elements and their isotopes. They are an integral part of the fluids, tissues and bones of the human body. The use of trace elements increases the therapeutic properties of vitamins and allows you to reduce their doses. Chemical elements (9 kinds)-carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, silver and iron-make up about 99% of the living weight of plants, humans and animals and are called macronutrients. For the normal vital activity of the organism and metabolism, all trace elements are required in very small, so-called biotic, doses. Human tissues and organs sometimes accumulate trace elements in large doses: for example, cadmium accumulates in the kidneys, zinc, nickel - in the pancreas, lithium, heavy metals are mainly concentrated in the blood formed elements, while aluminum and silicon are mainly in the blood plasma, in serum of protein fractions of the most rich in trace elements gamma-globulin.
