The patient had a history of malaria in childhood. There was no family history of vitiligo, eczema, psoriasis, or cancer. His paternal grandmother had diabetes and maternal grandmother had diabetes and asthma.
Dr. Shah studied the whole case in detail and prescribed Phosphorus 30c along with his research-based homeopathic medicines and asked the patient to give follow-up after every 6 weeks.
First follow up
In the first year of treatment, the improvement was seen gradually. Also, there were some new spots coming up that were observed in his left ear and right sole, which were due to the sudden stoppage of conventional medicines. He was experiencing improvement in the relief from psoriasis as well.
Second follow up
In the second year of treatment, there was a good improvement in the old spot on his forehead. Further, a new spot was noted on his left elbow as well. The other spots on left ear and right sole had started showing some minor changes throughout the year.
Third follow up
In the next one year, all his old, as well as new spots, further improved gradually. The one on the ear was yet to show a response, as it was on a difficult area.
Fourth follow up
So, in the next one year, all his spots had become very light and started showing a good response to homeopathy. Also, his psoriasis spots had turned almost invisible.
He is still under our treatment to avoid recurrence of the spot.
Conclusion:
Homeopathy is highly effective in treating auto-immune disease like vitiligo. if homeopathic medicines are taken for a longer period of time with regular follow-ups and appropriate diet.
