        abstract = {Background Trauma and injury constitute a major proportion of medico-legal cases encountered in clinical and forensic practice. Road traffic accidents, assaults, falls, occupational injuries, burns, and domestic violence frequently require meticulous forensic documentation, legal interpretation, and comprehensive medical management. While forensic medicine focuses on injury causation, classification, and legal implications, homoeopathy offers a holistic therapeutic approach aimed at pain relief, tissue repair, psychological support, and prevention of complications. Integrating homoeopathy into trauma care may complement conventional management while maintaining medico-legal integrity.
Methods and Methodology
A narrative review methodology was adopted. Literature was reviewed from standard forensic medicine textbooks, classical and contemporary homoeopathic literature, peer-reviewed journals, and medico-legal guidelines. Correlation was made between forensic injury classifications and homoeopathic therapeutic indications.
Data Collection
Data were collected from authoritative forensic medicine textbooks, homoeopathic materia medica, repertories, clinical case reports, and indexed journals. Only secondary data sources were used.
Results
The review suggests that homoeopathic remedies such as Arnica montana, Bellis perennis, Calendula officinalis, Hypericum perforatum, and Symphytum officinale have therapeutic relevance in trauma cases by aiding pain reduction, faster healing, and psychological recovery, when used as supportive therapy alongside standard care.
Conclusion
Homoeopathy can serve as a valuable adjunct in the management of trauma and injury cases with medico-legal implications, provided legal protocols, ethical principles, and forensic documentation standards are strictly followed.},
