16 year old girl, Miss S. G. (Patient
reference number L7807) reported to the clinic along with
her mother from complaints of warts on her feet since 1
year. She had a few warts on the dorsum of her right foot.
She would occasionally get itching on the warts. These
were gradually increasing in size and in number. She
mentioned that her friend also had warts on the feet and
suspected this to be the source of infection in her case.
She had also developed a corn on the dorsum of her foot
due to ill-fitting footwear. She had got the wart
cauterized about 6 months before she reported to us but it
had recurred after some time.
She also complained of acne on her face since the last 2
years. She would frequently develop papular and pustular
eruptions on the cheeks and forehead. These would be worse
before her menses and would subside after her menses were
over.
She was a slightly obese girl with an average appetite and
a marked liking for sweets. She was averse to milk. She
had no complaints pertaining to her stools or urine. Her
sleep was sound and refreshing.
She was a student of the 10th grade and stayed with her
parents and elder brother. She was a very mild person and
was extremely sensitive by nature. She would immediately
start weeping if she was scolded or spoken roughly to. Her
mother added that she was very patient and no matter how
much she would be troubled by her brother, she would never
lose her patience. She would get angry if someone lied
about her. She would mix easily with others and would like
to be in the company of people. She would get very anxious
before her exams but her performance would be amongst the
best ones in her class she would usually secure a rank
amongst the first three in her class.
Her brother had suffered from tuberculosis in childhood
and her grandfather had diabetes, cerebro-vascular
accident and had been in coma for some time before he
passed away. Apart from this, there was no history of any
other illness in her family or in her past.
She was prescribed Thuja 200 along with another remedy
that has been prepared at Lifeforce for the treatment of
warts. About 3 weeks after starting treatment, her warts
were the same as before but the itching had significantly
stopped. Another remedy called Causticum 200 was
prescribed for her this time. A month later, she reported
that her warts were almost 75% better than before. The
treatment was continued on similar lines and after
completing about 4 months of treatment her warts had
completely disappeared. Her treatment was concluded
thereafter and she was asked to report to us in case she
developed any complaints anytime in future. A year later,
she visited the clinic with her mother and she hadn’t
developed any recurrence of the warts until this point of
time.
