Patient's Experience

I was having knee joint pains on both the sides. I felt very difficulty while walking. sometimes one or both joints swell also. I started homeopathic treatment from Dr. Parth Mankad for my complaints. I felt great relief in pain and swelling both within 4 months. Now I can walk upto 2 kms without much pain.

I was suffering from osteoarthritis. my right knee joint used to pain like anything. I could hardly walk upto 1 km distance due to pain, which I walk regularly while going to office. I applied many massage oils and hot and cold sponges but it gave relief for time being only. After taking around 8 months homeopathic treatment from Dr. Greeva Mankad at her anjar clinic, I am 80 % better.

મારે વજન થોડું વધુ હોવાને લીધે થોડુંક ચાલવામાં પણ બંને ગોઠણમાં દુખાવાની ફરિયાદ રહેતી। કોઈ પણ તકલીફ થાય એટલે ડો ગ્રીવા માંકડની હોમીઓપેથીક દવા લેવાની અમારા આખા પરિવારને ટેવ. જ્યારે દુખાવો વધુ થાય એટલે એમણે મોકલાવેલ દવા લઇ લાઉ એટલે રાહત થઇ જાય. વિદેશી દવા કરતા આ હોમીઓપેથીક આ દવાની કોઈ આડઅસર ન હોય એટલે નિશ્ચિંન્ત થઇ ને લઈ લઉ.

મારે નાની ઉંમરમાં જ સ્લીપ ડિસ્કની સમસ્યા થઇ ગયેલ। દુખાવો એટલો રહે કે ક્યારેક તો પેઈન કિલ્લર ઇન્જેક્શન પણ લેવા પડે. જ્યારથી ડો પાર્થ માંકડ સાહેબની હોમીઓપેથીક દવા ચાલુ કરી છે ત્યારથી ઇન્જેક્શન તો દૂર પણ નથી લેવી પડી. સહેના કહેવાથી રહણી કહેણીના તેમજ વજન ઘટાડવાના બીજા પણ કેટલાક ફેરફારો ચાલુ કર્યા છે.
