In Sitamarhi and the districts around it, a traditional remedy prepared by a herbal healer named Rajesh Singh is drawing attention. He claims the medicine's key ingredient is a rare herb called wild onion, a plant he says is nothing like the onion found in an ordinary kitchen.
A Rare Herb Sourced From Nepal's Remote Mountains
According to Rajesh Singh, this plant grows only in the high, rocky mountain regions of Nepal, terrain that is difficult to access. Locating and extracting it demands considerable effort and time. Once gathered, it is not processed in any factory or with machines; instead, it is turned into medicine using a traditional method passed down over generations.
Claimed Relief for Gout and Chronic Joint Pain
The healer says this herb is particularly beneficial for patients suffering from gout caused by elevated uric acid levels. He also claims it helps with chronic joint pain, rheumatism and sciatica. Rajesh Singh states that many patients who have used this preparation have reported relief from pain. However, it is worth noting that these claims have not been backed by any independent scientific study so far.
Also Claimed to Help With Skin Problems and Ear Infections
The claims are not limited to joints and gout. Rajesh Singh says the same herb is also useful for skin related issues such as chronic itching and boils. He further claims it can help people who experience discharge from the ear due to infection.
Services to Continue in Sitamarhi for the Next One to Two Months
For now, Rajesh Singh is based in Sitamarhi and the surrounding areas, and he plans to stay there for the next one to two months, offering his traditional medical services to local residents. During this period, people struggling with gout, joint pain or skin ailments can reach out to him.
Experts Urge Caution Before Trying Any Herbal Remedy
Health experts recommend consulting a qualified doctor or an AYUSH specialist before adopting any herb or traditional treatment, especially when the illness is chronic or serious. Relying on an unverified remedy without a proper medical check-up can carry real risks.
