Homoeopathic medicines for Skin Diseases


In today’s world where everything is glitter and glow glowing and healthy skin is what all of us want. Skin plays various roles  not only protects our body but also has become a great cosmetic values. Any kind of skin ailment causes social pressure, creates a taboo and dents your confidence.

At one side  where skin is so important at the other side the increase pollution , chemicals, exposure to various raditation and harmful substances are harming the skin everyday that has raised the concern relating to skin disorders

There is a wide range of disorders seen from mild infections to autoimmune disease to name a few like acne,warts,corns,abscess,carbuncles, dermatitis, eczema, impetigo, vitiligo, psoriasis,etc.
Approach to the Skin problem with Homoeopathy:

Skin eruption,  as we all are well aware are the biggest concern of every individual in different perspective for some it’s an issue of their self image for some it’s unhealthy dirty whatever it may be every person’s life is stressed if he / she suffers from the skin eruption. Homoeopathy comes a blessing in disguise to help you get rid of these eruptions.

Homoeopathic treatment doesn’t involves any cream or any antibiotics but rather as a homoeopathic physician we try to understand how is your eruption varying from the other, what difference it makes to you as a person. To explain this point we would like to narrate some examples from the practice , There were three  different patient suffering from eczema the three although had similar disease specific symptoms they described it in a different way for one her life was finished as its matter of her image that affected her performance and had an impact on her confidence, One patient described it as this eczema is killing me daily because it looks dirty and people do not include me I am every day being harassed by the itching this eczema gives, for yet another patient the eczema would itch so much that she would cry she would be sensitive to what others part remarked on her.

Now from this examples we see that eczema is just something very superficial that has come up from the deep intense state within and how every individual was different from another all three patient received different remedy that not only helped their eczema to improve but also improve their way to look at the situation.

How are small pills going to help my eruptions without any local applications????
In the other school of medicine it has been noticed a wide range of creams and oil are given that are successful in suppressing a symptom.

In homeopathy, however, we consider suppression to be a bad thing and possibly responsible for many of mankind's ills. As doctors have become more successful at suppressing acute inflammatory diseases, incidence of chronic degenerative diseases has increased.

We believe there is a link between the two and are therefore very much against aggressive suppression of symptoms.

Nowhere is it more evident than in skin diseases. The skin is the most superficial outlet for the body to express its imbalances. If the outlet is blocked, the body needs to find an alternative.

As we continue to thwart the body's attempt to express itself via the skin, it eventually gives up and symptoms begin to manifest on a deeper level. That is when more important parts of the body like lungs, nervous system, joints, etc, begin to malfunction.

One should be aware of this vital aspect of healthcare. Homeopathy is of the view that all symptoms, however superficial, are a reflection of a deeper inner disorder.

When treating the skin, we are always concerned with treating the whole person at the same time.
In fact, we believe that suppressing eruptions can lead to development of more serious internal complaints. Effects are typically seen in the eczema/asthma syndrome.

Skin ailments are longstanding, especially in patients having undergone a lot of suppressive treatment. Hence, in homoeopathy, local application is strictly not allowed.
