A 40-years-old male, Mr K.D. (PIN 9093) visited at Life Force Homeopathy on 18th November 2006. He was suffering from vitiligo since one year. His elbow, knees, finger tips, and lower lips were affected by the disease. He had a bilaterally symmetrical pattern of this disease. His mucocutaneous junctions were affected by vitiligo. His disease was progressing continuously. He was taking steroid orally as well as applying it externally. But, his spots were increasing in number as well as size.
He liked milk and disliked spicy food. His appetite, thirst, urine, perspiration, bowel movements, and sleep were normal.
He was working in BARC as a scientist. He lived with his wife. He got married two years back and his wife was pregnant. His parents and younger brother lived in a village of West Bengal.
He was shy and reserved by nature. As an elder son, he had always taken responsibilities of his home. He was very sincere and responsible person. He was anxious about his illness since one year. He had harmonious marital life.
His mother was suffering from high blood pressure. Besides this, there was no specific family history. There was nothing specific in his past medical history also.
His case was studied in detail by Dr Shah &, after that, he prescribed him research-based medicines.
Mucocutaneous junctions, which are difficult areas to treat, were affected in this case. So, it was already explained to the patient that his case would take time to recover and medicines will help in treating the existing spots to a certain extent, in controlling the spread, and in preventing any new spots from occurring.
First follow up
He visited for his first follow up on 26th March 2007. He reported that he had tapered his steroid medication, and he had not got any new spots after that, although his old spots did not show any improvement. Dr. Shah had done the required changes in his medicine.
