Case Studies of Recurrent Boils-1

Mrs. R. G. (L-9541), 33 years old female came to the clinic to take treatment for recurrent pustular boils on thighs, abdomen, right thigh and chest with itching and leaving marks. She had a tendency to have such skin infection almost every two months, lasting for about two weeks. She would need a course of antibiotics for every such episode.

Her appetite was normal. She was a vegetarian and had craving for spicy and sweets. She had profuse perspiration all over her body. She preferred winters. Her urine and bowel movements were normal. Her menses were regular. She had leucorrhea daily.

Though she had good sleep, she had dreams related to daily happenings, past events, she is stuck and none of her family members though present around her are unable to help her. She had gained 4 kg in a year. She had general feeling of lethargy.
