Life Force Homeopathy Treatment Plan
After a detailed case-taking process, which included an in-depth understanding of her physical and emotional symptoms, Mrs. KB was prescribed a constitutional homeopathic remedy after careful analysis of her symptoms and overall health condition. Dr Rajesh Shah''s remedy selected wasMedorrhinum 30—a remedy known to treat urinary tract infections with burning pain during urination, urgency, and frequent desire to urinate, with little relief. The other components of her case, including her anxiety, tendency to be very sensitive to pain, and frustration due torecurrent health issues, aligned well with this remedy.
In addition to the constitutional remedy, lifestyle and dietary advice was provided to maintain the limited daily fluid intake as she was diagnosed with CKD. Also, she was advised to avoid holding urine for long periods of time.To avoid caffeine and acidic foods, which could irritate the bladder. And to practice regular pelvic floor
exercises.
