Eczema is an inflammatory condition of the skin that is very common. It is often itchy and uncomfortable to the patient. Those with bad eczema can even get infections from scratching. Unfortunately, there is not much conventional doctors can do as they tend to prescribe steroids for most cases which doesn’t cure it.

Occasionally dermatologists may prescribe modulating creams in bad cases of eczema but that is their only back up.

Some facts about Steroids:

• Steroids have side effects

• Steroids only suppresses the condition and doesn’t cure it

• Steroids make the skin thinner

• Steroids can cause a lot of pigments on the skin

• Patients who have been on steroids for a long time when they stop using their creams, they will get a rebound of eczema which is even harder to control

Therefore, Eczema is a difficult condition to treat especially adult eczema where there has been a lot of suppression through use of steroids creams for years. What is difficult in eczema cases is to manage the expectations of the patient as patients to heal fast, the problem is, healing takes time.   Homeopathy focuses on stimulating your own inner forces to heal as the body has the ability to heal.  But, healing is a process and you cannot by pass that process. 

Homeopathy is quite effective in treating Eczema and combined with the right nutrition, it may help bring down inflammation and put patients at more ease.

Some impatient moms ask us often how to sooth the itching part of their babies’ eczema and there isn’t a lot to stop the itching. Best is to go through the healing process with homeopathic medicine supplements and nutrition, so that it can reached a good point. However, here are some suggestions on the top of their constitutional remedies once per month (to book click here):

• For baby baths, use Oregon grape, can slightly help with the itch.

• Nutrition: Cut out Cow dairy. There may be other food that create inflammation. This test can give more insight into what other foods are creating inflammation

• Finding out about your gut microbiome is also a great too

• Supplements work with your practitioner

• Oatmeal baths very soothing. Oatmeal naturally has soap substance and cleansing properties. I recommend not using soap when you use oatmeal baths

• Wearing cotton next to the skin

• Cutting fingernails as low as you can

Taking a good probiotics following an anti inflammation diet and limiting cow dairy is also very important in treatments of eczema.

Important: Do not stop taking medications or steroids prescribed by your doctor unless advised by your doctor.
