As long as you are able to safely distinguish between the situations that require a doctor's attention and those which can allow you to use a home remedy then you can generally use home remedies quite safely.The simple fact is that the proper use and application of home remedies just requires a great amount of good sense. If you see that you are dealing with an ailment that is not severe or critical or requiring emergency medical intervention, then a home remedy can be the perfect solution for most common minor ailments. An effective home remedy can sometimes even be a better alternative to a doctor for the reason that it is readily available in the home and can be easily administered on the spot to provide quick relief.
