Brief Summary   Hemorrhoids are a common anorectal disorder presenting with symptoms such as bleeding pain prolapse itching and discomfort. Homeopathic medicines are used in different dosage forms including centesimal potencies and mother tinctures. However there is limited clinical evidence comparing their role when medicines are prescribed based on the totality of symptoms.
This study is a prospective interventional clinical study conducted to compare the role of centesimal potency and mother tincture in the treatment of hemorrhoids in adults. A total of sixty patients diagnosed with Grade I to Grade III hemorrhoids will be included and divided into two groups. In both groups medicines will be prescribed on the basis of the totality of symptoms. One group will receive the selected medicine in centesimal potency while the other group will receive the selected medicine in mother tincture form.
The primary purpose of the study is to assess and compare the change in Hemorrhoid Severity Score before and after treatment in both groups. The study hypothesizes that there is a significant difference between centesimal potency and mother tincture in reducing the severity of hemorrhoidal symptoms in adults when prescribed according to symptom totality.
This prospective, interventional, single arm clinical study aims to compare the role of centesimal potency and mother tincture in the homeopathic management of hemorrhoids. Sixty eligible participants will be recruited from Jawaharlal Nehru Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital, Vadodara, Gujarat, over a study period of one year. The pain, limitations and treatment outcomes will be assessed using the Hemorrhoid severity score.
