*** The need to distinguish between acute and chronic disease:
**In disease diagnosis: Acute diseases have sudden onset & short lasting in nature. For this region, acute disease suddenly can make severe pathology and complication. Sometimes, this condition may be fatal for patients. On the other hand in chronic disease, Chronic disease is a disease that arises from chronic miasm having the following characteristics as Gradual, insidious, imperceptible beginning. Unlimited lifelong sufferings. Is not extinguished by vital force alone. No tendency to decline or recovery may continue through the next generations unless treated Homoeopathically. Destroys the organism in the long run if untreated. so, knowledge of the capacity difference between acute & chronic disease gives helps the physician to make the treatment diagram of the patients.
** In medicine selection: in our Materia Medica, there has some medicine in acute & short acting in nature. On the other hand, there has much more medicine that can make influence the constitution, miasm, and mind of the patients & can give long-lasting effects in nature. so, knowledge of the capacity difference between acute & chronic disease gives helps the physician for select the proper medicine for proper cases.
** To make a treatment diagram: the management procedure of acute & chronic disease is not equal. In acute disease, we should give rapid management for patients to save their life.
**For an understanding of Posology & dose: in acute diseases, we should use lower to medium potency of the selected remedies; on the other hand, in chronic disease, we should use the medium to the high power of the selected remedies to avoid unwanted medicinal aggravation due to overdose or for reducing homeopathic aggravation.
**Dealing with miasm: Acute disease is originated from the acute miasm; on the other hand, chronic disease is caused by the fundamental chronic miasm. So in acute disease, we should require administration of the symptomatic similimum with acute miasm. Whereas the treatment of chronic disease there required the administration of anti-miasmatic remedies. So to select the specific anti-miasmatic remedies physicians must be possessed knowledge of disease and their comparison.
**Prognosis: To assess the prognostic value of a disease; the physician should detect the case whether it is acute or chronic. It helps to create a treatment plan to treat the case of the individual.
