Symptomatic relief in sickle cell disease patients by homeopathy medicines

Abstract

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a inherited blood disorder that impacts the shape and passage of red blood cells (RBCs) in blood vessels, which leads to several medical complications. Normal red blood cells are round or oval. In people with SCD, the haemoglobin present in red blood cells becomes defective and in turn leads to the change in shape of the red blood cells. Red blood cell becomes like sickles or curved in the persons suffering from SCD. These inflexible, adhesive cells may get stuck in tiny blood vessels, which in starts reducing or prevents blood movement and oxygen to several parts of the body. There is no full proof treatment of SCD, homeopathic Medicines can help in reducing the pain and can avoid difficulties linked with the SCD. In this paper we have presented our research on symptomatic relief in sickle cell disease patients by homeopathy.
