Acne

Acne is one of the most obstinate and irritating skin problems. While it makes an appearance in adolescence it often persists well into adulthood. People with oily skin are more prone to developing pimples, however, they are not the only ones. In women acne often get aggravated before and during menstruation and may be painful. This is because pimples mainly have a hormonal component attached to them. Blackheads and whiteheads are part of acne. Pimples often leave scars when they regress leading to unsightly marks that take years to disappear, if at all. However, there are many homeopathic medicines for pimples and acne on the face and body and these easily resolve the issue of acne and marks.

Homeopathic Medicine for Skin Diseases

Skin infections are common and occur more during damp humid weather. They are also prevalent in people living in close quarters because infection spread occurs easily. Practicing poor hygiene, as well as overlooking injuries or cuts that may become infected, are both conducive factors in causing skin infections. Fungal infections are very common in Indian weather and living conditions. Ringworm is quite commonly seen in summer and humid months. Athlete’s foot is another fungal infection which is frequently acquired. Fungal infection causes itching which may not be life-threatening but is irritating and certainly interferes with the daily routine and quality of life. Fortunately, homeopathic treatment for skin infections is available and effective. Some of Schwabe India’s products for fungal infections and itching skin are Topi Sulphur cream, Topi Heal cream, Kali Sulphuricum, and Graphites Pentarkan.

Allergies

Allergies are yet another medical condition that often manifest on skin. An allergy occurs when your body becomes hypersensitive to something that normally causes no sensitivity response in others. Common food products causing allergies are peanuts, kiwis, shellfish, cream, certain spices and condiments, various drugs, among others. Allergy results in a skin rash called urticaria that is accompanied with intense itching and in severe cases may even lead to breathing difficulties.

Homeopathic Medicines for Skin Allergies

Homeopathic skin allergy treatment includes not only treatment for the skin rash but also eradication of the tendency to develop ill-effects from specific foodstuffs. Biocombination no.20 and Topi Azadirachta cream are manufactured by Schwabe India and show promising results in skin allergies and rashes.

Skin Burns, Boils, and Blisters

For people working in the kitchen skin burns are a part and parcel of everyday life. Usually these are minor burns that do not require hospital intervention and can be managed at home. It is imperative to be educated about the first aid for burns and how to minimize the damage caused by burns on skin. Often boils and blisters form on the burnt area when it is not taken care of immediately. These boils may become septic and cause pain and disability. They also leave marks that are difficult to eradicate. Applying Schwabe’s Topi Cantharis cream is a good option as it minimizes the damage caused by minor burns effectively and quickly. It also inhibits blister formation. It has been repeatedly verified that medicines from Schwabe India are capable of providing the best homeopathic treatment for skin boils.

Psoriasis

While we are on the topic of skin diseases it is important to discuss psoriasis. This is an autoimmune condition in which dry, scaly patches form over the skin. They are itchy and the patches gradually coalesce to cover more area. Typically, the condition is aggravated in winter. There are several types of psoriasis varying in intensity. The disease is supposed to have a genetic component and is not contagious. In some cases, psoriasis is also associated with chronic inflammatory arthritis commonly affecting the joints of fingers and toes. Nail manifestations and deformities are also common. Diagnosis of psoriasis is generally clinical and no specific investigations are required.

Homeopathic Medicine for Psoriasis

Allopathic management of psoriasis is difficult, and cure often does not take place. For autoimmune conditions like psoriasis, it is better to go for homeopathic treatment so that complete removal of the disease may take place with no chance of relapse. Homeopathic medicines are well capable of countering the chronic effects of the disease, and they act upon the whole person to achieve a complete cure. Schwabe India manufactures various medicines to carry out homeopathic treatment for psoriasis. Calcarea sulphurica, Graphites Pentarkan, and Topi Graphites cream are a few examples of homeopathic medicine for psoriasis. These are usually prescribed by a homeopathic practitioner along with the indicated constitutional remedy to achieve the best results.

Warts

Yet another stubborn skin condition is warts. Warts and skin tags are common specially on neck and back. They persist for years altogether and sometimes may even increase in number at a certain point in life. Allopathic treatment consists of surgical removal of the skin tag or wart. The problem with this method is that the chances of recurrence are quite high. Surgical removal or cauterization of warts often drive the disease inwards and internal manifestations of some disease begin to occur. It is better to safely eradicate these skin conditions with holistic treatment rather than going for an expensive surgical approach which may be impermanent. Homeopathic treatment for skin tags and warts is safe, effective, inexpensive and permanent. Before going for surgical treatment, it is always a good option that you consider a homeopath and find out what your chances with homeopathy are. In India, these medicines are manufactured and distributed by Schwabe India and these are safe and reliable. Some excellent products for warts and skin tags are Topi Thuja cream, Silicea and Graphites.

Hair Damage, Fall, and Dandruff

In today’s day and age when pollution is rampant and fresh air is a luxury, having healthy hair is a rare occurrence. Hair damage, fall and dandruff are increasingly common and an indispensable feature of urban life. Hair quality is affected not only by dietary habits but also by the genuineness of products applied. Hair fall is reduced if a diet rich in proteins is taken. Adequate quantity of water is also essential to prevent dryness and splitting. Hair fall is also related to genetic predisposition and stress. Similarly, dandruff occurs in dry hair with flaking and scaling of skin. This also causes itching and an unsightly appearance in general. Several products by Schwabe India provide excellent results in maintaining healthy hair. These are B&T anti-dandruff oil, B&T Arnica shampoo and Biocombination no.22.
