Abstract

Verrucae (warts) are the benign epidermal proliferative lesions that occur on skin and the adjacent mucosal membrane, caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection. Filiform warts on the face are more difficult to treat. There have been various conventional methods for treatment of such warts but it has its own pros and cons. Homeopathy here plays a vital role in treating these warts permanently with help of homeopathic individualized medicines. These medicines are selected on the basis of the general characteristic and peculiar symptoms of the patient. Here in this article the effectiveness of a well selected individualized homoeopathic medicine Lycopodium Clavatum has been explained through a case report. A male of 30 years with multiple filiform warts on the face due to change of place and environment of his residence reported to the OPD and was prescribed Homoeopathic medicine Lycopodium Clavatum 30C on the basis of totality of symptom which resolved those multiple warts on his face within a month with no reappearance of similar warts. This case report with photographic evidence shows the effectiveness of Lycopodium clavatum 30C in cases of filiform warts. Along with these warts the complaint of constipation was also relieved which was considered while selecting the medicine. thus proving that when homoeopathic medicines are selected properly they cure the individual as a whole.
