Dr. Saroja Devi is a leading practitioner practices at Dindigul since twenty years seeks advice in a case Thirty-five years old, short, thin lady consulted me for cheliosis in the lower lip since six years, She had been treated with various medicines in vain. She presented her lips with much dryness, cracks and fissures with occasional bleeding. Initially I started with Graphites 200 since constipation was a remarkable complaint for her. Then I changed my prescription to Acid Nit 30C based on the characteristics. There was amelioration of symptoms and later recurred again. I increased the potency to Acid nit 200C, but still the patient has no improvement. I restudied the case and I present here for suggestion. She is a very calm, cheerful lady tackles her problems efficiently, Sweats all over her body. Her periods are very regular and last for only a day. She lives happily with two children. |

Dr. P.V. Venkatraman a leading clinician, academician having wide exposure in the field of medicine answers If Nitric acid is giving temporary relief always try its compliments or the remedy that follows well. The choice is Ars alb, Thuja, Sepia etc according to the case. If we consider the key words in the case like cracked lips, constipation, dry lips, menses short duration, quiet, cheerful, sweat in general, the Repertory may give us Sepia, Nat.mur, Sulph China, Graph etc. as top remedies. If I am forced to prescribe with the available data, my prescription will be Sepia or Nat.mur as the first try. If the full case is available then it will be interesting and challenging to select a remedy. Think several times before confirming the words ‘cheerful, happy, relaxed, etc in the present social condition of Indian women |
