Treatment of skin cancer with alternative medicine method
ABSTRACT
MMore people are diagnosed with skin cancer each year in the world. Albania has a high incidence rate of people diagnosed with this disease in the last three decades. In the present paper, 260 patients in total diagnosed with skin cancer underwent medical treatment using NILS (extracts of some Albanian plants Allium sativum, Juglans regia and Laurus nobilis) at the ALMS “STROKA” Clinic from June 2015 to June 2017.
The age of the patients varied from 9 to 99 years old. Diagnosis was established based upon the signs and symptoms, dermoscopy and biopsy. The treatment period varied from 1 to 6 months, depending on patients’ regenerative abilities. On average, the treatment period was 2 months until complete healing of the lesion and consisted of 7-10 sessions as recommended by the treating physician and depending on the tumor mass characteristics. Because it is an open medication, since the first sessions, we could see a shrinkage and reduction of the cutaneous lesion size, up to the total disappearance of the lesions at the end of the treatment. At this point, the treatment with NILS was interrupted, because the natural layers breakaway ended, and the process of regeneration of normal skin started. Once the treatment period ended, the patients were advised to be under control on a regular basis for a period of 3 years.
