Also known as "neurodermatitis", Brocq's neurodermatitis is a skin condition in which the skin reacts intensely. Mainly due to allergens, this disorder is one of the most common dermatological conditions. To date, it has not been possible to determine precisely the causes of neurodermatitis. Nevertheless, we do know that certain situations promote the development of the disease, including stress, tension and contact with chemicals.
Symptoms of neurodermatitis In the
primary stage, neurodermatitis is mainly manifested by itching of the skin and more particularly in the folds. Most of the time, the neck, neck, knees and hands are the most affected parts. When the pathology is at a more advanced stage, it is mainly manifested by the appearance of dry or wet eczema, depending on the case. In the case of wet eczema, the affected area is swollen and pustules, crusts or scales form. When it reaches a chronic stage, neurodermatitis manifests itself by the appearance of red patches, while the skin becomes dry and rough, following a reduced production of talc.
Recommended homeopathic treatments
To treat neurodermatitis, it is recommended to take 5 granules of Saponaria 7 CH at a rate of 5 granules three times a day. If you want to use the remedy in liquid form, it is advisable to take 10 drops of mother tincture three times a day and dilute it in a little water. In the presence of transparent fluid vesicles accompanied by itching, it is advisable to opt for the use of Rhus toxicodendron 7 CH instead. In case of inflammation of the skin accompanied by a burning sensation, it is recommended to use Apis mellifica 7 CH, at a rate of 5 granules three times a day. Finally, to relieve pruritus, it is advisable to take 5 granules of Dolichos pruriens 5 CH as often as necessary.
When to see a doctor?
If, despite the administration of specific remedies, the patient's condition does not improve, it is imperative to consult a doctor without delay. In children, the appearance of skin lesions on the face should also be the subject of an urgent consultation with a specialist. If existing lesions become purulent or change in appearance, a medical consultation is also necessary. Finally, if the subject becomes feverish or if his general condition deteriorates, it is possible that he or she may suffer from an infection, which requires a consultation with a specialist.
