Do Homeopathic Vaccinations Help In Treating Autism Spectrum Disorder In A Child?
The foundations of the disease need to be laid long before the symptoms
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone through your query and understand your concerns. I understand that you noted the autistic features just after he got a vaccination. But let me assure you that these two have no connections between the two. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are neurodevelopmental disorders and are related to the underlying neural connections being laid down. So, the foundations need to have been long before the symptoms were noticed. That cannot be in just a 3 days' time.
Vaccinations are vaccinations. I do not understand what 'homeopathic' vaccinations are. The question is whether they have undergone the extensive clinical trials and research that goes in to establish whether they are effective and safe.

I would strongly advise against their use.
I am therefore skipping your request for reference to a suitable doctor in XXXXXXX If you still need assistance, feel free to write back.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing back and for clarifying. Let me state that I do not have anything against homeopathy. As in any branch of medicine, external principles (like medicines) are used and these cause internal changes. These changes may be favorable or unfavorable. Extensive research is needed to establish the safety and efficacy. Such research is lacking in homeopathy. Some of the medicines definitely work, but not all. If you want to take the risk, feel free to go ahead. You can get assistance from the following homeopathic doctors:

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing back again. I understand what you are trying to do. But you must also understand that not all sources of information contain equal degree of validity. The validation needs to be obtained painstakingly through research. Those who do not bother to indulge in research, perhaps you should take their claims with a pinch of salt. You can choose to learn from professors or from any random person, but the dependability would not be same. That does not mean that whatever that the random person says, is wrong.
I hope you understand.
