What is deflected current in homeopathic philosophy-reference to homeopathic philosophical point of view?

This concept was extensively discussed by Dr. Herbert A. Roberts in his book “The Principles and Art of Cure by Homoeopathy”. anything may can prevent dynamic medicinal action, its called deflected current.
Key Points of Deflected Current:
1. Obstacles to Cure: These obstacles can arise from the patient, the physician, or the remedy itself.
2. Patient’s Side: Factors such as pathological conditions, mechanical obstructions, psychic trauma, and emotional stress can deflect the healing process.
3. Physician’s Side: Errors in selecting the correct remedy, getting carried away by the patient’s narration, or prescribing based solely on keynote symptoms can also deflect the current.
4. Remedial Side: Issues like lack of genuine medicine, poor drug proving, or contamination in handling the potency can affect the healing process.

From a homeopathic perspective, the goal is to identify and remove these obstacles to allow the healing process to proceed smoothly. The simillimum (the most similar remedy) should ideally match the patient’s totality of symptoms, but if the current is deflected, the physician must re-investigate and address any barriers to cure.
