Eczema is considered a chronic allergic reaction of the skin with symptoms that may include rash and itching. This condition is also known as atopic dermatitis. There are many ways to treat eczema, including some homeopathic remedies to help deal with the symptoms and treat the underlying cause of the condition.
For cases that include symptoms like thick, cracked skin, antimonium crudum is an effective treatment. These symptoms often get worse when exposed to sunlight and may cause a craving for sour foods like vinegar or pickles. This remedy is applied topically and protects the skin from irritation. It is also an effective treatment for plantar warts, impetigo, and calluses.
Arsenicum album can be used in anxious and restless patients whose skin may be itchy, dry and tend to burn intensely. Other symptoms include chills and indigestion when the skin is burning.
When the skin is itching, avoid scratching the affected area and apply heat to relieve the itching. This homeopathic remedy for eczema can be applied to the skin or taken in pill form. When this medication is taken orally, the foreign toxins in the body are naturally released.
Arum triphyllum can be used if eczema forms around the mouth or anywhere on the face. Patients that require this treatment may have a chapped chin that is hot and irritated. A person's lips and nostrils may be sore from the irritation. They may also experience hoarseness or a sore throat. This topical treatment will relieve the irritation to your skin and should be applied directly to the affected area.
For eczema that worsens in the winter, try calcarea carbonica. This type of eczema is often accompanied by fatigue, anxiety, chills, and clammy feet and hands. This treatment can be applied topically or taken orally to relieve the condition year-round. When its taken orally it improves the function of your digestive system, ridding your body of the toxins that are causing symptoms such as fatigue, chills, and anxiety.
Individuals that have a history of skin disorders such as eczema, impetigo, and herpes may benefit from using Graphites as a eczema homeopathic remedy. Some of the symptoms to look for when considering this treatment are cracked, sore, or leathery skin. The hands, mouth, and behind the ears are typically cracked and may have a golden colored discharge that forms a crust. The affected area might also itch severely in warm weather. Graphites should be applied directly to the affected area.
Sulphur is an effective treatment if inflammation, burning, or itching is present. These symptoms may worsen in warm weather or in a bath. Sulphur should be used when other medications or ointments have been used with no relief.
Petroleum jelly is perfect for use on eczema that's cracked and dry. Many times these cases worsen in severe weather and might cause a cold sensation when scratched. Eczema sufferers that have symptoms such as tough or leathery skin will benefit from this remedy. Sulphur and petroleum jelly can be combined to make an ointment that's applied directly to the affected area to improve the skin's natural healing abilities.
