Rajesh Mardi, 28 years old, consulted me on February 17, 2015, regarding his chronic ‘urinary tract infection’ from Uttar Dinajpur. He has often complained of a strong urge to urinate and a burning sensation in the urethra while urinating. A small amount of blood leaked out before the urine started to stream for the past 5 years. He experienced discomfort in his lower abdomen. Throughout that time, he experienced multiple treatments, yet the issue remained the same.
During the initial visit, I discovered additional symptoms that assisted in determining the appropriate homeopathic remedy, including:
- A preference for salty foods and fried salty fish.
- He used to take baths 2-3 times a day, which provided some relief from the burning urethra.
- He couldn’t handle heat.
- He had worries about his family.
- There was a lot of saliva in his mouth.
Based on those symptoms, I recommended phosphorus 30/6 doses followed by Nihilinum for a month, but the patient indicated no improvement.
February 2, 2015: His urine culture revealed E. coli. Colony number: 1.6 X 10^5 cfu/ml.
I analyzed the case using synthesis repertory, identifying four key symptoms: craving salty fish; overall improvement from bathing; excessive saliva in the mouth; and a strong desire for salt, which pointed solely to Natrum mur, successfully curing him within a year. I prescribed the medicine occasionally once in a month and other times in every two months, accompanied by the popular homeopathic remedy nihilinum. The report dated December 5, 2015, indicated that there was no development of pathogenic organisms following 48 hours. The patient is now completely fine.
