  • PageNo: 8781-8788
  • Abstract:
  • BACKGROUND: Anorectal diseases, particularly hemorrhoids (piles), fistula-in-ano, anal fissure, and prolapse of the rectum, constitute a significant burden of suffering globally. Conventional surgical and pharmacological management, while offering rapid symptomatic relief, is frequently associated with recurrence, complications, and incomplete cure. Guernsey's "Homoeopathic Therapeutics of Hemorrhoids" (1882, revised 1892) stands as a pioneering disease-specific clinical repertory in homoeopathic literature, offering a precise symptom-to-remedy index for practitioners. OBJECTIVE: This clinical review article evaluates the structure, clinical utility, and practical application of Guernsey's repertory in the treatment of hemorrhoids and associated anorectal conditions, comparing outcomes with conventional medicine, and presenting illustrative homoeopathic case examples. CONCLUSION: Guernsey's repertory, when used alongside a thorough constitutional case-taking, facilitates deep, lasting cure in anorectal diseases. Its unique symptom-totality approach surpasses conventional palliation in addressing the root cause, offering a scientifically coherent and clinically validated alternative.
