Teen’s Nail Psoriasis Improves with Life Force Homeopathy
An 18-year-old girl, Ms. V.K. (Patient ID: 30765), visited the Kemp’s Corner clinic on 29th December 2016 for the complaint of nail psoriasis.
She had been suffering from this condition for the past year. Her nails were yellowish, pitted in texture, and broke easily. There was a lot of dryness noted on the nails. Initially, she had taken multiple antifungal treatments, assuming it was a fungal infection. Later, the condition was diagnosed as nail psoriasis, and she was advised to take steroid injections. However, the patient refused the injections and opted for natural homeopathic treatment instead.
Her appetite was average, and she loved eating fried food. There was no specific aversion to any food. Her thirst for water was adequate. Urine and bowel habits were normal. Her menstrual cycle was regular, and her sleep was sound and refreshing.
She was a first-year college student. Her mother was a flight attendant, and her father had passed away two years earlier. She had a younger brother who was still in school. She was a very anxious and sensitive girl by nature. She had a fear of the dark and of closed spaces. She was particularly anxious about the appearance of her nails, as they were easily visible. Friends and family often asked about her condition, which made her feel ashamed and self-conscious.
There was no major illness in her past medical history. Her father had suffered from heart disease, but there were no other significant illnesses in the family.
After thoroughly studying the case, Dr. Shah prescribed her research-based homeopathic medicines. She was also given a diet chart to follow along with the medicines.
Follow-ups:
On 18th February 2017, the patient reported that there was no major change with the medicines so far. Her nails were still yellowish and pitted. The dryness was still present, and the nails remained delicate, brittle, and prone to breaking. They appeared uneven and out of shape. Based on this feedback, Dr. Shah reviewed her case and prescribed the next set of medicines.
On 10th July 2017, the patient reported about 30% improvement. The nails had started to improve gradually. The yellowness had reduced, and the pitted texture was showing signs of healing. Dryness had lessened. The nails had become a bit stronger and were not breaking as easily. The patient and her mother were happy with this progress. Further medicines were prescribed accordingly.
On 28th October 2017, she reported further improvement. The nails had begun to regain normal shape and texture. The dull appearance was diminishing, and the yellowish color was replaced by a healthier, whitish tone. Dryness was significantly reduced, and the nails had become stronger than before. Overall improvement was visible with the medicines.
On 19th December 2017, the patient reported being 90–95% better. Her nails looked completely normal. There was no discoloration, the texture was smooth, and the nails were now long and firm. The patient was very happy with the outcome. She was able to go out confidently without any stress about her appearance. Her self-confidence had improved greatly. Her mother was also extremely pleased with the transformation. They felt they had finally found a permanent and natural solution through homeopathy.
The patient and her mother thanked Dr. Shah and the entire LifeForce team for helping her recover and achieve such remarkable improvement. They were truly happy and satisfied with the results.
