I am experiencing swelling in my feet and fingers, body pain, and depression with constant headache. My cholesterol is 253, which is high, and my triglycerides are also elevated.

Swelling, body pain, depression, and high cholesterol (253) together may signal an early metabolic disorder or inflammatory imbalance. High triglycerides (if present), thyroid dysfunction, or vitamin deficiencies can all cause these symptoms. Depression may also amplify pain and fatigue. Its important to check your lipid profile, thyroid (TSH), vitamin D/B12, and CRP, and begin light exercise and a heart friendly diet.
Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...
Take a LIPID PROFILE Test or Take a THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE (TSH) Test

Last Saturday, I went for a full body checkup at Dr. Lal Path Lab. In the report, I found that I have high triglycerides, 421, and uric acid, 9.9. I want to ask if it is possible to do treatment in Homeopathy?
