Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis) and Its Homoeopathic Treatment

Introduction

Do you or your child suffer from red, itchy, dry, or inflamed skin patches that come and go? This could be Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis), a chronic skin condition that affects both children and adults.

Eczema is not contagious, but it can be very uncomfortable, embarrassing, and emotionally distressing. Flare-ups often worsen with allergens, stress, or weather changes, making day-to-day life difficult.

At Homoeo Clinic, Dr. Dinesh Sharma provides safe and holistic homoeopathic treatment that works from within—soothing skin, reducing flare-ups, and preventing recurrences naturally.

Causes & Triggers of Eczema

Medical Causes

• Genetic predisposition (family history of allergies, asthma, eczema)

• Overactive immune response to irritants

• Associated allergies or asthma

• Hormonal imbalance (especially in women)

Lifestyle & Environmental Triggers

• Dry skin due to cold weather or frequent washing

• Dust, pollen, pet dander, or mold exposure

• Certain foods (dairy, nuts, seafood) triggering flare-ups

• Stress and emotional strain

• Harsh soaps, detergents, or synthetic fabrics

• Excessive sweating or heat

Homoeopathic Approach to Eczema

Conventional treatments usually include steroid creams and antihistamines that give temporary relief but may cause side effects. Homoeopathy provides a gentle and holistic solution by:

• Correcting the root imbalance in immunity.

• Reducing itching, redness, and skin dryness.

• Preventing frequent flare-ups and recurrences.

• Healing skin without steroids or harmful chemicals.

• Improving overall health and emotional well-being.

At Homoeo Clinic, Dr. Dinesh Sharma prescribes individualized remedies after carefully studying the patient’s skin type, triggers, and overall health.
