Title : Unexceptional results in homeopathy: An evidence based case studies
Abstract:
A 58-year-old male with a history of Diabetes Mellitus presented with pedal edema and a non-healing ulcer on his left foot, which developed after a shoe bite. Previous interventions included left foot debridement. Clinical examination revealed significant pedal edema, a persistent ulcer, incompetent medial above-ankle perforator veins, and potential varicosities and a Baker’s cyst. No evidence of arterial or deep vein thrombosis was found, although inguinal lymphadenopathy was noted. Color Doppler ultrasound confirmed venous insufficiency. The patient was treated with a regimen of Homeopathic remedies. Notably, homeopathic treatments contributed to significant improvement in both edema and ulcer healing. Subsequent follow-up showed improvement in both edema and ulcer healing, with the patient advised to continue regular follow-up. Another a 35-year-old male had infertility issue since 9 years with a history of grade II varicocele, right epididymal cyst, and low sperm count (10 million/mL) presented with sciatica, worsening back pain when lying down, and premature ejaculation. MRI findings included subarticular marrow edema, articular irregularities in the sacroiliac joints, mild right hip effusion, and spondylolisthesis. Semen analysis revealed a low sperm count, poor motility (90% immotile), and significant morphological defects (teratozoospermia index of 4%). These findings indicate substantial spinal pathology and reproductive issues. Patient was treated with homeopathic remedies wherein post treatment with homeopathic medicine Semen analysis revealed high sperm count, and good motility.
