Eczema and Homeopathy
Eczema:
Eczema is an inflammatory condition of the skin
characterized by itching or burning, redness, scaling and small ulcers. It
can also be accompanied by watery discharge which later on leaves by thick
crusts. Eczema is more the description of a symptom rather than a disease.
Eczema is the result of so many internal and external factors acting singly
or in combination with each other.
Treatment with antibiotics and antihistamines merely
suppress the eczema (resulting condition) causing it to reappear later on. In some
cases, suppressed eczema may lead to asthma or high blood pressure.

Homeopathic Approach:
The problems experienced by a person may be the result
of long term suffering or from associated conditions. Homeopaths take
complete history in to consideration to select the right remedy as
everything is connected and inter dependent. Homeopathic remedies work
towards improving the constitution of the person. DISCLAIMER:
