Pain, numbness in hands, GERD 18009...India
A 46-year-old male had been suffering from tingling sensation in his hands, and numbness during the nights, and constant pain in wrists, for the past four years, since 2021. The symptoms were aggravated by excessive strain and were a cause for concern, as his occupation required prolonged and repetitive operation of levers.
Additionally, for the past two years, since Jan 2023, he had been suffering from a burning sensation in the abdomen after meals, accompanied by flatulence throughout the day. Owing to shift duties, his meal timings were irregular, with frequent intake of outside food. Initially, these digestive symptoms occurred two to three times a week and were relieved by buttermilk. However, over the preceding eight months, the burning sensation began occurring after every meal, with no relief by buttermilk. He also reported difficulty in bowel movements along with foul-smelling flatulence.
He had not taken any allopathic medication and had been managing his condition with yoga. On 8 Mar 2025, he consulted the practitioner, a friend from yoga classes and was given:
#1. CC4.10 Indigestion + CC10.1 Emergencies + CC12.1 Adult tonic…6TD
#2. CC3.7 Circulation + CC10.1 Emergencies + CC18.5 Neuralgia + CC20.3 Arthritis + CC20.5 Spine + CC20.7 Fractures + Bitter leaf* Potentised 1M…6TD
and was also advised to take home-cooked meals with leafy vegetables and buttermilk, and packed lunch to avoid outside food. For the next several weeks the patient had to take a break from his yoga classes due to his father’s hospitalisation and gave no feedback.
Treatment progress:
- 1 June 2025: 100% relief in all symptoms, dosage reduced to TDS.
- 1 July 2025: Dosage reduced to OD.
- 25 Aug 2025: Remedies stopped after gradual tapering.
As of Dec 2025, there has been no recurrence. The patient continues to enjoy a balanced life with healthy food and yoga.
