Eczema is a very common disease ,we usually seen in our clinic.Homoeopathy is a very safe method in encountering this.We know it is a pattern of inflamatory response of the skin.Histologically there will be spongiosis and varying degree of acanthosis.Under endogenous type of eczema,I select some ,
Seborrhic dermatitis,atopic(already told),Hand eczema,Discoid eczema etc
I invite doctors to join the discussion about SEBORRHIC DERMATITIS.
As we know the main symptom include,"red sharply looking lesion covered with greesy looking scales,usually seen on scalp,face and upper trunk,flexures,presternal and interscapular area.In the face medial side of eye brow is more involved,the nasal folds.eye lids etc
Please tellyour experience with it.

I have got seborrheic dermatitis. Is there a cure? I have got red area around my right eye, in my right ear, on both sides of my nose, around my mounth and where my pubic hair is. It is red, but not scaly, it is itching. It is the same all year around.

I will be greatful for all help!

Thanx.

I just had one patient with this condition, he was a problemcase,tried first ars alb, but only a little better, then sepia, and some dietary changes, no dayrie, some improvements, slow, took two months, then changed to sulphur m, one dose, good reaction after 14 days (after a week he combined with antibiotics,one kaliumperg bath and cortizone) there was a immidiatly improvement, the patient tells he he is set back to the time before this problem, mentally and physically, and keeps progressing, intestes are good functioning, discoloration of tongue gone, no problems after antibi as he was used to have, sulph worked well.The problems cleared after Herings law.Seldom to see that this works as well as did this, combined with allopathics.

Greasy looking scales covering the affected area is seen with this case.Dandruff may be the early manifestation.The characteristic site is above mentioned.It may be seen as a complication in certain diseases like Parkinsonism,paralysis and early H.I.V infection.Commonest form is petaloid form infront of chest and interscapular region.
If charecteristic scales and site is not there ,it may not be the above said disease.
So don't come to a conclusion yourself.
There are so many medicine in Homoeopathy according to the patient and it is very effective too.

I forgot to mention that I have got a spot on solarus plexus. My eczema is not greasy, it is red, and dry. I get worse when there is low pressure, and high temperature. I have got eczema since I was born I am told. I have some white spots on my finger nails. I have recently got eczema between to of my toes, and on some of my fingers. I have got a little eczema behind my around my ears. On a total my eczema is worse on the right side of my body. I have got a white skin and red hair, so I am sensitive to the sun. I have had some sun allergy in my early years, I am 30 years now.
I have tried cortisone, with no luck. I have only used weak cortisone. I have tried acupuncture, and homeopaths, with no luck.

Remedies I have got is: Croton Tiglium D6, Sulfur D12, Alumina D12, Nat Mur D6, Merc Sol D6, Silicea D200, Mercurius Viv D12, Graphites D6, Rhus Tox D6 & D12, Platium Met D12, Ledum Pal D6 and Uvan. I have also nosode.
Some got me a bit worse over a long time (months) with no relief, some didnt change anything.
I may have missed som remedies.

I am patient, and a very kind person, I never cry.

I will be greatful of all help.

Thanx.

In case of Seborrhic dermatitis Heracleum,Kali sulph etc show good results.Please tell your experience Drs

I have seen a few cases like that and on the totality of symptoms, I have had good results with Ars alb, but more so with Nat.mur. This is possibly so because Nat.mur is like the person who does not cry, or if so, laways in isolation from others. I think that Reidar should follow GM's prescription, as from what he tells us, he has only had low potencies with one or two exceptions. A 200C is good to start with, when you have a good vitality and could be indicated, from what you tell us.
Seborrhoea comes about possibly because of anxiety and so Ars alb and Nat.mur. are often indicated. Pannakal, can you be less technical, because it is not the patient's language, but so much allopathic terminology? It does nothing to explain the symptoms in the patient's experience and does not really clarify things. It sounds very learned, but is useless for practice.

Ben,
This topic actually I meant for Drs to discuss as previously we do with psoriasis,to know various ideas and new remedies.But no Drs come for a long time but a patient came thinking that he got the same complaint.Any way it became a boon and everybody is here now.Coming to our subject Hoitzia coc. has seborrhic alopecia.

Alright, If you do not want my input I can accept that. No problem, sorry to have interrupted.
