How homeopathy helps Warts, acne and pigmentation
Warts, otherwise known as verruca or Condylomata, are locally occurring benign growths on the skin that are most commonly caused by Human Papilloma Virus. The virus enters through injuries like cuts and bruises and they multiply rapidly and form blister-like formations on the skin, called warts. Common warts do not cause pain or discomfort unless they are situated in areas that are being constantly irritated.
Homeopathy has been successful in getting rid of existing warts, preventing the formation of new ones and reducing the skin’s tendency of forming new ones. Medicines can be taken orally and there is little or no local application. The treatment is from within and is permanent. The duration for which the treatment is taken varies from patient to patient, the severity of warts and their chronicity.
There are many medications in homeopathy for the treatment of warts and they are essentially harmless and can be continued for longer durations of time depending on how long the wart formations have been there. Do not touch warts on yourself or others, never pick or scratch a wart and wash hands frequently. Never burn or cut a wart yourself. If you or your partner has genital warts, refrain from sexual activities, and consult a doctor.
Acne occurs when pores on the skin become clogged due to dirt, debris and bacteria. Skin produces sebum naturally which maintains the elasticity of the skin. Sometimes when there is excessive production of oil, it tends to attract dirt and clogs the pores. Acne is mostly associated with teenagers but can occur in people at any age. There are various contributing factors to acne formation, hormonal imbalances, unhealthy food and lifestyle choices, stress and menstrual cycle being a few. The condition itself is minor, but if not treated promptly, can cause scarring.
Homeopathy has proven effective in the treatment of acne as it treats the root cause and promotes healthy skin. There are primarily two types of acne, non-inflammatory and inflammatory acne. Whiteheads and blackheads are the non-inflammatory variety while papules, pustules, nodules and cysts are the inflammatory kind.
Homeopathy offers long term cures for prevention of acne formation, by targeting the root causes or triggers that cause it. It treats the causes for hormonal fluctuations and also helps reduce acute symptoms of acne-like pain, inflammation and swelling.
Pigmentation is the darkening of facial skin due to excessive production of a pigment called melanin. The medical term is melasma, where patches of pigmentation appear on the face, especially cheeks, nose, forehead and upper lip. Facial pigmentation is more common in women, but in some cases, can also occur in men.
Major causes are hormonal changes in women during pregnancy, during menopause, consumption of contraceptive pills and hyper-thyroidism. Other trigger factors include stress, inadequate sleep and overexposure to the sun. Homeopathy has a safe and effective remedy for treating facial pigmentation. They help by restoring an even tone to the skin and halting further progression of the condition.
Homeopathy helps Allergies and asthma
Did you know that allergy is the most common health problem in the world? Changes to the environment, society and lifestyle all contribute to the rising number of allergies today. Factors that increase the risk of developing allergies include inadequate nutrient intake, environmental pollution, stress, lack of physical activities, side-effects of medication, obesity, tobacco and alcohol consumption, and lastly, genetics.
Common allergic symptoms include, but are not limited to, coughing, dry itchy skin, ear discomfort, runny or blocked nose, watery or itchy eyes with redness, sneezing and breathing difficulties. Homeopathy has effective, constitutional medicines for allergies. This means that a remedy is chosen considering the totality of the symptoms the person is experiencing. This requires the guidance and expertise of a professional homeopath, and a detailed consultation is necessary to embark on this method of treatment.
People can use homeopathic remedies to alleviate symptoms in the acute stages of their allergy. This will not completely cure the allergy but will provide temporary relief without any side-effects.
Asthma is a condition where the airways that carry air into and out of your lungs become extra sensitive to particles carried along with air when you breathe. It tends to be hereditary and is higher in families that have a history of allergies and in people who smoke or are exposed to it.
When a person with asthma comes into contact with an allergen in the air, the lining of the airways or the muscles surrounding the airways tend to swell causing it to constrict, or mucus builds up which can cause difficulty in breathing. Commonly manifested symptoms include tightness in the chest, wheezing and coughing.
Homeopathy offers safe and permanent cures for asthma, as the medication treats the problem at the root cause. The treatments encourage the body’s own restorative processes by strengthening the natural healing system. In cases where the cause for asthma is an allergic reaction, homeopathy treats the causative elements of the allergy safely and without side-effects.
