A 9-Month-Old Baby Found 80% Recovery From Eczema In 9 Months With Homeopathy At Life Force
Eczema is an inflammatory condition of the skin, sometimes, affecting the nails. It is an auto-immune condition that occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks cells of the skin or nails. It is a difficult condition to treat & has tendencies to relapse & go in remissions. Usually, a history of autoimmune diseases runs in the family.
On the skin, Eczema appears as erythematous, dry, rough, thickened skin with cracks, serous discharge and/or bleeding on scratching with intense itching, and, sometimes, hyperpigmentation.
On the nails, transverse ridges can be seen, pitting on nails, & thickening with discoloration of the nails.
In children with eczema, diaper or nappy rash is very commonly observed.
Fortunately, eczema can be treated with homeopathy effectively and safely without any side effects.
Here is an excellent example of a case of a child recovering very well from Eczema in a short period with Homeopathy at Life Force Homeopathy treated by Dr. Rajesh Shah, M.D.
Case Study:
A 9-month-old female patient, baby M.S. (PIN: 43639) started her treatment at Life Force Homeopathy for her complaints of Eczema on 2nd September 2020.
She had multiple active red eruptions, which were rough & thickened, on the cheeks extending up to the temples. Other affected skin areas were the forehead, forearms, cubital fossa, nape of the neck, dorsum of hands, feet, thighs, & scalp. The itching on the lesions was severe, thereby leading to rigorous scratching and, eventually, burning & bleeding with some thick sticky serous discharge. The child used to cry the whole night and was unable to sleep due to the severe itching.
She had to resort to corticosteroids & antihistamines to find some relief. The child was unable to swallow food due to the eczema lesions over the neck externally.
She was feeding on Cerelac, NAN Pro, whole moong dal, and dry fruits.
The patient’s father was Diabetic and under conventional treatment.
Her mother was under the treatment of certain medications to support the pregnancy.
A complete guide to diet & skincare was recommended to the patient.
After a detailed case analysis, Dr. Rajesh Shah, M.D. prescribed his research-based medicines for Eczema along with the conventional medicines which were already in use with a recommendation of tapering off the conventional medicines in the due course of treatment at Life Force.
Follow-Ups:
At her first follow-up on 10th October 2020, the parents of the patient informed that all her symptoms were reduced for the initial 2 weeks. However, due to an episode of fever, there were changes in her conventional medicines which again led to a slight increase in her complaints. The prescription was made accordingly by Dr. Rajesh Shah.
On 3rd November 2020, it was observed that, even though the child was not given steroids for a month, there was a 25% improvement in her relief in all the complaints. A further prescription was made accordingly by Dr. Rajesh Shah.
On 27th November 2020, it was reported that all her symptoms had reduced again. The eruptions and itching were reduced by 35% to 40%
Then onwards, the eruptions and itching had reduced steadily. Hardly any new eruptions or an increase in the symptoms occurred. Also, the use of steroids was almost rare.
On 15th June 2021, the patient’s parents said that the patient no more experienced itching now, and all her eruptions had reduced significantly by more than 80%
The patient’s parents were very happy with the treatment that their little one received at Life Force.
Conclusion:
This case illustrates that Homeopathy can treat eczema, an autoimmune disease, effectively and safely without any side effects even in babies of the tender age of 9 months.
