Psoriasis 11117...India
A 48-year-old female school teacher had a weeping scalp with itching, eruptions, white flakes and red patches since 2004, this was diagnosed as psoriasis. She took prescribed medicines including steroid injections for two years, then switching to ayurvedic treatment for a year and a half; neither gave any relief. In 2008 she started taking homoeopathy which considerably slowed down the progress of the disease but did not heal it. However, she decided to continue with homoeo medicines for psoriasis which was confined to her head only. She maintained her hair with normal oil, shampoo, and henna for colouring. Also, she often had mild knee pain.
On 2 Feb 2022, when she approached the practitioner she had stopped homoeopathy and was not taking any medicine. She was given:
CC11.1 Hair tonic + CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic + CC20.3 Arthritis + CC21.3 Skin allergies + CC21.10 Psoriasis…TDS internally and to be applied externally on the scalp after mixing a few crushed pills in petroleum jelly.
After six weeks, she had 50% improvement in itching and watery discharge from the scalp and 100% relief from knee pain. In August, she reported that her scalp had improved by 70% overall. By December, her scalp was fine except for some tiny white flakes and red patches.
Whenever she stopped the remedy for a few days, the itching would return but would go away on resuming the remedy. Hence she prefers to take the remedy at TDS which she continues as of June 2023 and she feels good about her overall improved condition.
