Brief Summary
|
Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted superficial veins found in the legs. They occur due to malfunctioning valves within the veins and a loss of elasticity in the vein walls, which leads to blood pooling and vein enlargement. 1. Samples will be selected following preliminary and detailed screening using specified selection criteria. 2. Inclusion and exclusion criteria are strictly followed. 3. After consideration of dropout cases, a minimum 40 patients will be enrolled for the study. 4. Case-taking will be done as per the strict homoeopathic principle. 5. Baseline scoring will be taken using VCSS. 6. Analysis and evaluation of each case will be done. 7. Miasmatic analysis will be done. 8. Repertorization will be done in Synthesis Repertory. 9. Final selection of the remedy will be done after consultation with Materia Medica, 10. Potency, dose and repetition of the indicated remedies will be guided strictly as per homoeopathic principles. 11. General (non-medicinal) management including appropriate diet and regimen will be advised. 12.
