A Case of CARCINOCIN

MRS.T.G.K., 69Yrs old lady, consulted me on 10th October1998, with only a single symptom:

• A pedunculated, painless wart on anterior side of neck since one year.
• She has cauterized it earlier 6 month back but it recurred again. She went to Surgeon who denied to operate & referred her to me.
• She was much anxious regarding her wart.
• I asked her, is it really necessary to get it removed?
• She answered that’s why I am here. Is it really getting removed with homoeopathy?
