Jaundice of small child on ayurvedic treatment
A case study
Ma. D male child 9 months old had juvenile jaundice or kavil as it is called in Marathi. He was admitted in a local hospital and diagnosed as liver paranchymal disease. He was not responding to the given treatment and Dr. started to insist on a small operation of liver. Parents were scared as the child was just 9 months old.
I entered the hospital as a spy because we were not sure the Dr. will allow ayurvedic physician to examine. General condition of the patient was not good he was drowsy with ballooned up stomach showing small blood vessels on it.
We started our packets to improve the condition within 3 days. Dr. left the idea of operation.He was discharged from hospital. The patient recovered fully within a month.
