A Case Report of Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis Treated with Homoeopathy
Abstract Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a fungal lung infection that primarily affects patients with bronchial asthma, cystic fibrosis, and those who are immunocompromised. Patients typically present with symptoms such as cough, dyspnea, pleuritic chest pain, and blood-stained sputum or hemoptysis, often with a history of uncontrolled asthma. This case report describes a 22-year-old female patient with ABPA and bronchial asthma, presenting with a two-year history of cough, dyspnea, and hemoptysis. The patient's condition improved successfully within six months of homoeopathic treatment using Phosphorus, with repetition as needed. The improvement was evaluated using the Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire with standardized activities, revealing marked improvement in symptoms and quality of life after homoeopathic intervention.
