Plantar fasciitis 11601...भारत
A woman aged 42 years was having pain for the past 4 years on the soles of her feet which also had deep cracks. During the past 4 months the pain became so intense that she could neither stand nor walk properly. She took allopathic medicine which did not help and she also started having burning sensation on the soles. So after a week she stopped this medicine.
On 7 October 2018, her husband took her to the practitioner who gave:
#1. CC3.7 Circulation + CC12.1 Adult tonic + CC20.4 Muscles & Supportive tissue + CC21.5 Dry Sores…one dose every hour for a week followed by 6TD
#2. CC21.5 Dry Sores…OD in olive oil for external application.
After 2 weeks the patient still complained of pain and burning sensation, though marginally less. The practitioner found that the patient was stressed due to domestic problems. She was especially worried about her differently-abled son.
On 23 October 2018, the practitioner, after consulting Combo queries, substituted #1 and #2 by the following:
#3. CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic + CC20.1 SMJ tonic + CC20.4 Muscles & Supportive tissue + CC21.5 Dry Sores…6TD
#4. CC20.1 SMJ tonic + CC20.4 Muscle & Supportive tissue + CC21.5 Dry Sores…OD in olive oil for external application.
The pain reduced gradually over a period of 2 months and she started walking comfortably. After another 2 weeks, on 10 January 2019, she reported that she was free of pain as well as burning sensation and the feet had become smooth with no trace of cracks. The dosage of #3 was reduced to TDS and after another week to OD. As of 24 February 2019 she is absolutely fine and continuing both #3 and #4...OD to prevent recurrence. The dosage will be tapered after considering the comfort level of the patient.
Practitioner’s note: SMJ tonic along with the Mental & Emotional tonic proved to be the most appropriate combination in this case.
