A Case Study of Renal Calculi and Hydronephrosis Treated with Individualized Homoeopathic Medicine

Abstract

: Renal calculi is a condition in which one or more stones are present in the pelvis or calyces of the kidney or in the ureter. The objectives of this study are to study the efficacy of Homoeopathic medicine in the management of Renal Calculi and to study the Homoeopathic approach to avoid Surgery and recurrence of Stone formation. Over a period of years, different varieties of Renal calculi were recognized and different types of medical treatment like Lithotripsy, Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy and Open surgery came into the fields. Even though surgery helps in removing the stone, it fails to avoid the recurrence. Here the Homoeopathic drugs can prove their efficiency [1] . A 49yrs old male presented with the complaints of frequent and painful urination with pain in the lumbar region which treated with Lycopodium 200 C. This case study stands as further evidence of the value of individualization and, consequently, the effectiveness of Homoeopathic remedies in treating the underlying cause and evacuation of renal stones.
