Ms. Chaitra, 39 years was declared COVID ‘Positive’ on January 10, 2022 at her residence when she did an “Online” consultation with our Nursing Home. She was then advised for 10 days Quarantine at her place of stay. The consulting doctor advised preventive and curable Ayurvedic medicines from time to time based on symptoms explained by her to the doctor online. The internal medicines prescribed were procured by her locally and continued treatment during the quarantine period. The patient had bodily aches, mild fever and occasional bronchial problems.
After one week of continuous intake of medicines, the symptoms of bodily aches and fever partially subsided without a complete cure. She was advised to take complete rest for another one week to recoup herself from the impact. However, she continued to feel weakness and was unable to do routine household services as pre-Covid days. The consulting doctor has then advised her to visit our Nursing Home at the earliest possible for 14 to 21 days of IP treatment to recoup herself from the Covid positive syndrome.
The patient visited us again for a physical check-up and treatment on 15/02/2022. On examination, the patient was having post covid symptoms such as severe pain on multiple joints as an aftermath result of post-COVID-19 inflammatory changes associated with Tachycardia. She was declared Covid19 positive on January 10 after which various inflammatory symptoms developed. Her Blood report (CBC) showed an increased ESR level, low WBC count and Lymphocytes on the higher side which was the result of post covid inflammatory conditions. The D-Dimer value remained 854.6. On physical examination of the case, it was found necessary to start IP treatment at the earliest possible before the condition is aggravated.
The modalities of IP treatment for 21 days from 15.02.2022 include Panchakarma therapies both with external and internal medications. The treating doctor’s constant supervision was applied while undergoing Panchakarma treatment procedures as the condition may worsen as vitals may fluctuate during the treatment period. The patient was discharged from the hospital after she was fit enough to do normal work. She was advised to take complete rest for another two weeks and to continue the medications prescribed for the period.
