By Dr. Sangita Kar
Patient Overview
Name: Prosemjit Roy
Age: 37 years
Gender: Male
Occupation: Businessman
Weight: 70 kg (Normal BMI)
Duration of Complaint: 2–3 years
Previous Medication: Allopathic treatment
Condition Before Treatment
This patient came with the complaints of severe gastric pain, which had significantly got worse in two weeks before consultation. He had a history of gastric disturbances that started to develop several years ago during a stage where he consumed alcohol almost every week. This drinking habit of his can be the only reason for him developing gastric issues. When his pain got extreme he tried allopathic medicine which initially gave him relief by suppressing the symptoms and he discontinued alcohol along with dietary modifications. He started to consume less oily foods, salads and everything to support his medication journey.
While allopathic medicines gave him temporary relief, his symptoms recurred in a more severe form once the medication was stopped. Because of this episode, the intensity of pain increased to the level that the patient wanted immediate medical attention. Earlier he tried allopathy but this time he opted for homeopathy because of its gentle nature and long term relief.
Symptom Profile
The symptoms he was suffering from directly indicated severe gastric issues which needed to get proper care as soon as possible. The symptoms were:
Severe burning pain in the abdomen
Migrating abdominal pain extending to the chest & back
Heaviness in the stomach
Marked aggravation of pain after meals and during night hours
The current situation and symptoms of the patients made no sense because he was already following an organized lifestyle with a restricted diet, little oil intake & regular salad consumption.
Treatment Approach
After doing a deep evaluation of his health, condition and symptoms considering all the mental and physical factors Dr. Sangita confirmed that the condition was Chronic Gastritis with functional digestive imbalance. After looking at the continuous and severe symptoms the doctor made a personalized prescription for him which will help in managing the condition from within without any recurrence. The doctor treated him with homeopathic medicine for the next 1.5 months.
