Homeopathy helps treat vitiligo effectively. Let’s have a look at a case of vitiligo that was relieved with homeopathic treatment.
A 58-year-old patient (PIN: 18818) came to Life Force Homeopathy on 9th April 2012 for the treatment of Vitiligo. He was presenting with white spots on his underarms (bilateral) and genitals. His skin was examined under Wood’s Lamp and it revealed no new spots and existing spots illuminating.
A detailed case history was taken.
The patient told us that he had started noticing white spots initially on his underarms (bilateral) in the last 1 month, and, later, it started spreading to the genitals. The patient was asked about the previous treatment as well. The patient told us that this was the first time he was consulting a doctor for the same. Also, his family history was asked to rule out any auto-immune disease or genetic predisposition. There was nothing in particular concerning his family history of similar illness.
The physical generals of the patient were noted. The patient was a non-vegetarian. He had an average appetite and a craving for sweets. He had an average thirst and drank around 2 liters of water daily. He had average perspiration and was ambithermal. His motion was satisfactory. When asked about his urinary symptoms, the patient told us that he often had to strain while passing the urine. When asked about his sleep, the patient told us that he enjoyed a sound sleep and had no recurrent dreams at night.
He had a very happy and well-supported family and had no family tensions at home.
Furthermore, his mental generals were noted. The patient was a very simple, straightforward, disciplined, and honest person. The patient told us that he never feared telling the truth and that he often used to tell it on the face irrespective of whom the other person is. He was a very short-tempered person and never kept things in his mind and expressed whatever emotions he had within himself no matter what the other person would feel. He was quite worried about the future of his sons as both of them were not yet settled.
Dr. Shah went through the case file in detail and prescribed the medicines after evaluating the whole case. The patient was also advised to follow the diet chart of Vitiligo given to him.
Follow-Ups:
The first follow-up of the patient was taken on 12th June 2012. The patient told us that there was no noticeable change in the existing spots but, at the same time, he was happy that his complaints were not spreading further.
By 10th November 2012, the patient was better by around 15%. He felt that the spots on his underarms were becoming slightly dull in color. The spots on his genitals had not changed significantly, but, most importantly, the patient was happy that the spots were not further spreading.
By 17th July 2013, the patient was further better. He told us that the spots had started to fill up from the borders which was a good sign. Further, the spots were becoming even duller than before. But, there was no change in the spots on his genitals.
By 13th February 2014, small spots that were there on the underarms had almost disappeared and even the bigger spots on his underarms were turning dull. The spots on the genitals started becoming dull. But, the patient was worried about the new spots that were appearing on his legs.
By 2nd October 2014, the spots on his underarms had reduced by 50%. The relief in the spots on his genitals had also started improving by 10%. New spots on his legs showed no much change.
By September 2015, the spots on his underarms had reduced by 60%. The recovery from the spots on his genitals had also started improving by 20%. Some of the spots on his legs also started to disappear.
By September 2016, the relief in the spots on his underarms was better by almost 70%. Also, the genital area showed improvement by 50%. The patient was very happy and satisfied with the treatment but was slightly concerned with the spots on his legs which were not showing further improvement.
By May 2017, the spots on his underarms got cleared off by almost 95% and the recovery from the remaining spots on his other body parts was better by 80%.
By June 2018, the patient had experienced an overall improvement of around 90%. Even though it took almost 6 years of treatment, the patient was very happy and content with the treatment he received at Life Force under the guidance of Dr. Shah because he was able to get a permanent solution to his complaints without any side-effects.
