Follow-Ups
The patient gave the first follow-up on 25th August 2024. She was better, but, as she had traveled to cold places where the temperature was low, the eruptions and rash around her hands had developed again.
After another month in September 2024, her Atopic Dermatitis had aggravated. Her skin was dry, rough, with itching and rash around the eyes.After another six months, Dr. Shah restudied the case, and she was 80% better. Rashes would develop only if she went out in the sun or sweated.
After a few more months of treatment, her Atopic Dermatitis was better, itching had decreased, the roughness of the skin had decreased, but the hypopigmented spot remained. Her herpetic eruptions had disappeared.
In her last follow-up on 21st March 2025, her Atopic Dermatitis was good, and the hypopigmented spot had reduced and further disappeared.
She was very happy because, for some time, she was completely asymptomatic and cured of the itchy and irritating skin problem from which she had been suffering for a long time. She is very thankful to the entire Life Force team and specifically to Dr. Rajesh Shah for providing his expert treatment.
