Swelling after centipede bite 11626...India


In Nov 2021, a 40-year-old man was bitten by a huge yellow centipede on his left foot. He became drowsy and had severe pain and swelling in his foot. He immediately went to the hospital where he was given Tetanus Toxoid and anti-venom injections and was prescribed medicines for 15 days. All symptoms vanished after the treatment and the man was fine for a month until in Dec 2021, his left foot began to swell around the area of the bite. Though there was no pain, the swelling was so much that he could not put on his footwear. His job demanded him to travel frequently around the city on his motorbike and the swelling made travelling difficult. His doctor prescribed some medicines and a bandage, which he stopped using after a month as these did not help. The swelling worsened whenever he travelled long distances.

There happened to be a vibrionics camp organised in his area, so on 15 May 2022, he consulted the practitioner about his swelling and was given:

CC10.1 Emergencies + CC13.1 Kidney & Bladder tonic + CC17.2 Cleansing + CC21.4 Stings & Bites…TDS 

By 22 June, when he came to the next camp, the swelling had completely gone. He could wear his shoes comfortably and travel long distances. The dosage was tapered off and stopped on 17 Aug.

The swelling did not recur and the patient is fine as of Oct 2022.
