A 39-year-old female patient, Mrs. H.G. (PIN: 41792) visited Life Force and its homeopathic treatment in November 2019 for her complaint of oral Lichen planus.
She was suffering from the condition for a month. The lesions of lichen planus were present on her hands, legs, and back. She was suffering from very severe and intense itching in the lesions. Hyperpigmented marks were observed on her skin. She was using steroids creams for the past few days, and she was feeling better with it.
The patient’s appetite was average. She was having a specific craving for salty food. Her thirst for water was average. The patient had no issues related to the urine and stool. Her sleep was sound and refreshing.
She was a housewife and staying with her husband and 2 sons. The patient had stress related to her mother as she was not keeping well. By nature, she was reserved and introvert.
She had no other major ailments in the past. Her mother was suffering from cancer and diabetes mellitus.
After studying the case in detail, Dr. Shah prescribed some research-based homeopathic medicines along with some dietary tips to the patient. She was also informed to gradually reduce the use of steroids ointment and not to stop it suddenly as it can increase the disease symptoms.
