Listing the
benefits of homeopathy in skin diseases which can be broadly classified on the
basis of their cause into infections, allergies or auto-immune disorders and
physiological disturbances, Dr Batra's Homeopathy Clinic today stated the skin
problems can be effectively treated with homeopathy.
In a press release issued here
today, it state that Infections can be due to viruses, bacteria, fungi, or
parasites. While measles, chicken pox, herpese, and warts are common examples
of viral infections, impetigo, folliculitis and abscesses are bacterial
infections. Fungal and infestation by lice are parasites skin infections.
Eczema and urticaria are allergic manifestations where psoriasis, lupus and
vitiligo are auto-immune in nature. Physiological disturbances such as hormonal
changes along with other contributory factors can lead to conditions like acne
and seborrhoeic deramatitis.
Homeopathy recognises the body as a
unified whole of physical as well as psychological components and confronts the
problem deep within. Homeopathic medicines unlike antibiotics, anti-fungals,
anti-parasitics or anti-virals do not target causative organisms. They boost
the immune system of the body to fight and overpower them instead, it is for
this reason that homeopathic remedies are invaluable in the prevention of
diseases too. for example, morbillinum and variolinum have been used to prevent
measles and chicken pox respectively. Homeopathy does not advocate the use of
external applications as they ten to suppress the disease only to return with a
vengeance at a later time or to affect another more important organ or system
manifesting in a completely different way.
In acute diseases like measles and
chicken pox the homeopath uses his discretion in deciding whether to medicate
or not, knowing that these diseases are self limiting and usually run their
natural course uneventfully. However medicines may be prescribed to treat the
distressing symptoms and to prevent complications. Outbreaks of herpes siumples
can be easily controlled by the use of remedies like nitric acid and rhus tox.
In case of herpes zoster, depending upon the site involved, the medicine is
selected. for example, ranunculus bulbosis is useful for herpes zoster
affecting the trunk and aranea diadema is good for herpetic trigeminal
neuralgia.
