Reviving Confidence: How Life Force Treatment Transformed Chronic LPP for an IT Professional

Lichen Planus Pigmentosa (LPP) is a rare variant of lichen planus, a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the skin, mucous membranes, hair, and nails. Lichen planus generally presents as pruritic (itchy), purple, flat-topped papules or plaques. In LPP, the characteristic features include hyperpigmented macules or patches, typically on the face, neck, and upper limbs, often in patients with darker skin tones. The lesions of LPP often result in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, leading to noticeable and persistent dark spots on the skin even after the inflammation subsides.

Case Study
A 38-year-old IT professional (Patient ID: 44721) approached Life Force Homeopathy on 5th February 2021 at the Jayanagar Branch for his complaint of LPP, which he had been suffering from for 2 years.

The main presenting symptoms were hyperpigmented patches on his face, hands, and neck. His past medical history and treatment history were discussed in detail. The patient had been on steroids for 1 week in the early stages of his condition, but considering the harmful side effects, he opted for homeopathic treatment. There was no family history of autoimmune diseases.

A detailed case-taking was done, considering both his mental and physical generals.

Physical Generals:
He was a non-vegetarian with an average appetite. He had cravings for spicy food and preferred warm food. His thirst was average, drinking 2 liters of water daily. He experienced average sweating and was not tolerant of extreme cold weather. His bowel and urinary functions were satisfactory. He had sound sleep and preferred lying on his right side.

Psychological Outlook:
His mental history was also explored. He had a very happy and supportive family during his childhood. He was a shy person, sensitive, and often easily offended. He was attached to his family and family-oriented. His intellectual abilities, including memory, perception, intelligence, and logic, were all reported to be good.

After thoroughly reviewing the case, Dr. Shah prescribed a suitable homeopathic treatment.

Follow-up:
The first follow-up was on 28th March 2021. In this initial follow-up, there was slight improvement observed on the hands, though no change was seen on the face and neck. However, the patient developed two new spots on his forehead after starting the treatment, which caused some concern.

In the second follow-up on May 27, 2021, further improvement was noted on the hands, and the new spots on the forehead were stable.

In the subsequent follow-ups, there was significant improvement in the patches on both the hands and face.

By 7th March 2024, the patient reported an 80-90% overall improvement. He was very happy and grateful to Dr. Shah and the entire team for the remarkable results.

Photos taken before and after the treatment show the improvement in skin patches.
