1. Effective treatment & remedies for Eczema
Eczema is a generalized term that is used for various inflammatory skin
conditions.
It is also called as "Dermatitis" which means superficial inflammation of the
skin (epidermis) that can be acute, chronic and recurring.
Symptoms:-
Eczema is characterized by various reactive patterns of the skin, as discussed
below.
• Usually, the first symptom of eczema is intense itching.
• The rash appears later and is red and bumpy.
• The rash itches or burns.
• If it is scratched, it may ooze and become crusty.
• In adults, chronic rubbing produces thickened plaques of skin.
• Some people develop red bumps or clear fluid-filled bumps, when
scratched, add wetness to the overall appearance.
• Painful cracks can develop over time.
• Although the rash can be located anywhere on the body, in adults it
is most often found on the neck, flexures of the arms (opposite the
elbow) and flexures of legs (opposite the knee). Infants may exhibit
the rash on the torso and face. As the child begins to crawl, the rash
involves the skin of the elbows and knees. The diaper area is often
spared.
• The itching may be so intense that it interferes with sleep.
• Dryness, flakiness, heat are associate symptoms.
• In infants, eczema typically occurs on the forehead, cheeks,
forearms, legs, scalp, and neck. Affected areas usually appear very
dry, thickened, or scaly. Some times there will be hyper
pigmentation. In children and adults, eczema typically occurs on the
face, neck, and the insides of the elbows, knees, and ankles.
• Chronic scratching causes the skin to take on a leathery texture
because the skin has thickened (lichenification).
There are two groups of eczemas called exogenous and endogenous.
Exogenous eczema is mostly caused by contact with external factors such as
irritant substances, certain allergens and due to photosensitivity.

2. Endogenous eczema is due to internal factors such as a generalized and
prolonged hypersensitivity (atopy) to certain environmental factors. These
factors could be chemicals, drugs, pollen, dust-mites, etc. These individuals
also frequently exhibit one or more of other disorders such as asthma, hay
fever, urticaria, food allergies, etc.
(Treatment)
Eczema is a chronic skin disease reflected due to immunological changes
within the body. Eczema is curable only if the immunological disturbance is
corrected by internal medicines such as in homeopathy. Homeopathy offers
effective and safe treatment for eczema.
