A Case of Buerger’s Disease (Thromboangiitis Obliterans – TAO)
Patient Origin: Hardoi, Uttar Pradesh
Initial Consultation: 17 March 2025
Mode of Treatment: Medicine Transmission Through Hair

🔍 Background:
This case involved a middle-aged teacher from a rural background, referred to us after his heart specialist suggested amputation of the fingers to prevent further spread of vascular damage to the hand. He was diagnosed with Buerger’s disease (Thromboangiitis Obliterans – TAO) — a rare, non-atherosclerotic, segmental inflammatory disease affecting the small and medium-sized arteries and veins, typically seen in smokers.

🩺 Clinical Presentation:
Chronic swelling in hand and feet

Painful ulceration of fingers

Coldness, discoloration, and tingling in fingers (especially left index and middle finger)

Pain in right wrist and feet

Visible discoloration in foot veins

Diabetes Mellitus (since 2022)

Blockage in heart with left ventricular hypertrophy

History of stroke at age 20–25

Gastric ulcer at 25, dengue in 2023

Inflammatory reaction after eating rice

Constipation since young age

Dryness of eyes and ulcer on eyelid

🧠 Psychological State:
The patient was distressed but hopeful. Though from a rural background, he was educated and curious about homeopathy and our method of medicine transmission through hair.

He admitted to being a chronic smoker, which is a well-established trigger for Buerger’s disease. However, due to progressive symptoms and the threat of amputation, he expressed willingness to modify his lifestyle and explore holistic care.

⚕️ Treatment Approach:
After a detailed case history following the classical Hahnemannian approach, Sulphur 0/1 was selected based on his totality of symptoms. His hair was inserted into the medicated transmission vial on 17 March 2025.

📆 Follow-up Timeline:
28 April 2025:
The patient shared images of the affected fingers.
✅ Swelling significantly reduced
✅ Ulceration began healing

28 May 2025:
Remarkable improvement was observed.
✅ Skin regeneration noted at ulcer sites
✅ Fingers no longer showed ischemic signs
✅ The pain and inflammation had subsided

9 July 2025:
The patient reported during follow-up:
✅ 70% improvement in limb condition
✅ Ulcers healed, swelling completely gone
✅ No signs of spreading infection or further ischemia
✅ Amputation avoided

🧾 Conclusion:
This case demonstrates how classical homeopathy, when applied with the method of medicine transmission through hair, can offer profound healing in chronic vascular conditions like Buerger’s disease, even when conventional medicine suggests invasive solutions like amputation.

The patient’s trust in the process and timely intervention helped save his limb, prevent disfigurement, and restore quality of life.
