Abstract

Haemorrhoidal disease is recognised as one of the most common proctologic medical conditions in general population. This is a case series of five patients suffering from haemorrhoidal disease having intense pain while defecation, swelling around anus, bleeding per rectum, itching in anus and prolapsed internal haemorrhoids which were healed completely by the individualised homoeopathy without any surgical intervention. Haemorrhoidal disease symptom score and a disease-specific short health score were used to assess the symptom severity and improvement in quality of life of the patients, measured at baseline, third and at sixth month of the treatment. The possible causal attribution of the changes was assessed. The cases were reported according to the HOM-CASE guidelines. Homoeopathic medicines such as Acidum nitricum, Aesculus hippocastanum, Lycopodium clavatum, Nux vomica and Thuja occidentalis were found useful.
