Mast P.A.S., a 12-year-old boy bearing Patient ID: 52034 residing at Mira Road, visited our Borivali clinic on 21st July 2023 with his parents. His complaints were of hyperpigmented and white lacy lesions on his left lower limb, along with continuous itching for the past six months. Despite using conventional medicines, the condition had been getting worse over time.

Being the only child to his parents, he was very obstinate, confident, expressive, and very active. If he wanted something, he would take it no matter what. His appetite was good, but he drank very little water. His bowel movements were unsatisfactory, but he slept soundly. He craved spicy food, chicken, and milk, while having an aversion to sweets and vegetables.

There was no significant past or family medical history. His father is a businessman, and his mother is a homemaker.

Dr. Rajesh Shah thoroughly studied his case and, considering the use of steroid-based ointments and immunosuppressant tablets, prescribed the most suitable homeopathic medicine.

After starting treatment in July 2023, the patient's complaints aggravated, leading to discontinuation of the treatment. However, the patient resumed treatment in March 2024.

29th March 2024

During the first follow-up, the patient experienced aggravation and spread of lesions. As a result, he stopped the homeopathic treatment and began conventional medications. After discussing the nature of the disease and its progression, the patient resumed the homeopathic treatment.

5th May 2024

The patient developed 2-3 new lesions on the armpits, buttocks, and legs, appearing every 2-3 days for the past 15 days. Mild itching and hyperpigmentation were noted. The cause was unclear, but possibly due to sun exposure. The patient was taking Tab. Aprezo 20 mg BD, with symptoms masked by immunosuppressants.

15th June 2024

New active lesions appeared daily on both legs and hands, with increased itching for the past week. The cause remained unclear. Lesions on the neck, abdomen, back, and buttocks improved, though hyperpigmentation persisted. 24th July 2024: Multiple new purplish hyperpigmented lesions appeared on the extremities, abdomen, back, neck, and buttocks, now drying. Intense itching persisted, with frequent scratching.

7th September 2024

Significant improvement was observed, with lesions drying up, no new lesions, and reduced itching. Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) marks remained.

20th October 2024

The patient continued to improve, with no new lesions for a month and only occasional mild itching. Old lesions were healing, and PIH marks persisted. The patient stopped Tab. Aprezo 10mg 25 days ago.

3rd December 2024

he patient showed 70-75% improvement, with no new eruptions, mild intermittent itching, and dryness of the skin. PIH marks were fading slowly, and conventional treatment had been stopped 2 months ago.

In conclusion, the patient showed significant improvement over several months. Initially, hyperpigmented lesions, intense itching, and a progressive condition persisted despite conventional treatments. However, the patient responded well to homeopathic medicine. By December 2024, the lesions had dried up, no new eruptions occurred, and itching had subsided.

While Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) marks remained, they were gradually fading. The patient discontinued conventional treatments in October 2024 and experienced a 70-75% overall improvement, with only mild dryness and occasional itching remaining.
