A 40-year-old female was limping due to stabbing pain, swelling and stiffness in the sole of her left foot (more in the heel) since Mar 2022. Her doctor diagnosed it as plantar fasciitis (inflammation of the fibrous tissue along the bottom of the foot, connecting the heel to the toes). She was prescribed painkillers and advised to apply ice, change shoes, take complete rest when the pain was too severe. She took the medicines and followed the advice diligently but did not feel any relief. She also consulted some other doctors but to no avail.

In April the pain became unbearable and continuous even while sitting down, affecting her day-to-day activities. Soon she became depressed and stressed out. She would get irritated about trivial things, hesitate to talk to even her family members and have mood swings. All this resulted in episodes of migraine-like headaches. Eventually, in August, a doctor suggested surgery on her foot ligaments but she refused.

Additionally, she had been suffering from painful menses with excessive bleeding since Feb 2018. She became anaemic with Hb level of 9, so felt very weak and lethargic while doing daily chores and got irritated easily. After her covid vaccination in early 2021, her menses became frequent and sometimes, bleeding was continuous throughout the cycle; this went on for more than a year. She did not take any treatment for this, but was managing with diet, multivitamins, home remedies and rest. However, her most pressing problem was heel pain. When she visited the practitioner on 26 Aug 2022 she was given:

For Plantar Fasciitis: 

#1. CC3.7 Circulation + CC10.1 Emergencies + CC11.3 Headaches + CC11.4 Migraines + CC18.5 Neuralgia + CC20.3 Arthritis + CC20.4 Muscles & Supportive tissue + CC20.5 Spine...every 10 min for first 2 hours and then QDS 

To boost immunity for general well-being: 

#2. Immunity Booster*…BD 

For excessive bleeding, depression, mood swings and anaemia: 

#3. CC3.1 Heart tonic + CC8.7 Menses frequent + CC15.2 Psychiatric disorders…TDS

Within the 1^st week, there was 15% improvement in heel pain; during the next three months, the patient experienced steady improvement to various degrees in all her symptoms. By 10 Dec, she had 80% improvement in heel pain, stress and mood swings, 50% in weakness and lethargy and 35% in menses pain and bleeding with blood colour changing from dark to medium red. She no longer had any headaches. She slowly developed a positive approach to her day-to-day life, better family relations, and greater focus on work. 

By 28 Dec, heel pain, stress, and mood swings disappeared. There was 70% improvement in weakness and lethargy, the menses problem was reduced further and blood colour became normal. She started enjoying family life and her work. On 7 Jan 2023, #1 was reduced to TDS and then tapered down and stopped on 15 Feb.

As of 5 Aug 2023, there has been no recurrence of heel pain; she continues to take #2 and #3, as she is making good progress with both. Already, there is 95% improvement in weakness and lethargy.
