Successful Treatment of Piles After Childbirth
Women often have piles post-delivery. Thirty-year-old Mrs. P.A., a homemaker and the spouse of a fruit vendor in the APMC market, came to the Life Force Homeopathy clinic in the Vashi branch (Patient ID: 54766). For one and a half years, she has had grade 2 external piles. For two months, she experienced soreness, itching, and a burning sensation with a little lump around her anus every day; previously, this occurred roughly twice a week.
The frequency of her complaints was once every ten days, triggered by an irregular diet. She had been taking Pilex (an ayurvedic medication) 1 tablet SOS for 1 and a half years. She experienced pain during and after passing stool with itching and discomfort. Her complaints began after her second delivery, a normal delivery, and whenever she ate spicy or outside foods, her constipation flared up. Generally, the first part of her stool was hard, but occasionally, otherwise, the stools were satisfactory and semisolid.
Physical generals:
She was ambithermal, sweated a lot, and she had an average appetite and an inclination for spicy foods like vada pav and franky. Her menstruation was a regular 28-day cycle.
Mental generals: She had weeping tendencies with suppressed emotions, was very emotional and nervous, always thinking about her family.
Life Force Approach:
Detailed Case Taking: This involves a comprehensive interview with the patient to gather information about their medical history. Based on the case assessment and individualized evaluation, Dr. Rajesh Shah prescribed the homeopathic remedy Sulphur. In addition to homeopathic remedies, the patient was advised on lifestyle and dietary changes, and blood investigations were suggested. The patient''s condition was regularly monitored, and his progress was documented.
Follow up:
Follow-up on July 27, 2024: In the initial follow-up, 20% less pain, itching, and burning was experienced. Every ten days, the patient complained of pain following a difficult stool movement. The size of the lump did not change.
Follow-up on July 9, 2024: The pain began and persisted for around one and a half hours after passing stool in August. The size of the lump appeared to have somewhat enlarged. In August, the stool was difficult, but it has since then become normal slowly. No burning or itchy feelings. She was not on any medication apart from homeopathy.
Follow-up on November 14, 2024: There was less burning, itching, and pain. The stools were a little hard. There was still pain when passing stool. The size of the bulge remained constant. A recent attack of dengue last month left her feeling weak.
Follow-up on December 27, 24: The burning discomfort had subsided considerably and had only persisted for 5–10 minutes following bowel movements. Only during the first bowel movement of the day were there hard stools. There was less itching; however, there was still the occasional lump sensation.
The patient reported 75% improvement and no burning pain during the follow-up on 09/02/25. Eating spicy food is the primary cause of the intermittent itching and lump sensation; otherwise, she is much better.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, this case shows how well homeopathy works to treat grade 2 piles. An efficient, complete holistic approach to easing pain, burning, and itching in cases of piles. With stool normalcy and no external application, the patient''s discomfort gradually decreased.
