A 7 yr old child complained of pain in the ankles, after suffering from covid a month back. He had lost some weight after the acute illness but had a good appetite. A dose of Abrotanum 6 was prescribed. A week later the mother reported no more pain in the ankles.
Explanation
Sequalae in post influenza/ viral type illness {weakness remaining after influenza- abrot/ con/ kali phos/ nat-sal (Phatak repertory)} can have various manifestations. This child had rheumatism-like symptoms, post-illness, only in the lower part of the body (lower part affection). Hence Abrotanum was chosen (cause and effect).
