Abstract:

A 65-year-old female presented with a history of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and varicose ulcer since 2015. Initial homeopathic management with Lachesis and Ceanothus Americanus resulted in improvement; however, in 2018, after prolonged travel, a severe ulcer developed requiring allopathic intervention. Subsequently, homeopathic treatment was resumed with Lachesis, Hamamelis, and Ceanothus Americanus, along with the use of varicose stockings. Over 10 years of follow-up, the patient demonstrated significant healing of ulceration, reduction in pain, and progressive improvement in skin discoloration. This case highlights the potential role of individualized homeopathic medicines in chronic venous insufficiency and ulcer management.
