Son's Eczema problem

Suggest you read the other posts on this forum on Eczema.

I have used Arnica 30 to cure a chronic case of Eczema but others have used Graphites which is also effective.

I suggest you read

For Eczema

Try 6C of Graphites. Or licking a pencil's end will also do the job.

Arnica 30c is usually dispensed in little lactose sugar balls of 3mm ¯. You have not indicated the size of your 'tiny pills' and I cannot therefore advice you.

I recommend 2 balls of 30mm ¯ for each dose and you can adjust the pills you have on this basis. You can take 2 doses per day as your son is 6 years old but in the case of an adult I have used 3 doses per day.

The balls should be placed under the tongue when they will dissolve in about 2 minutes and will be absorbed into the blood supply under the tongue immediately.

If you do not observe any significant improvement within a week, Arnica is not the remedy for your son and you should change over to Graphites 30.

Please post response on this forum weekly.

I noticed that the sign commonly used for Diameter (¯) did not appear on the post above after the 3mm. Please read this sign as diameter.

I also note that I had inadvertently marked 30mm ¯ in para 2. This should of course read as 3mm.

A pity that posts canot be corrected on this Forum.

Mr Moderater please note.

Since you have tried Arnica 30c and the mix of Graphites, Silica and Sulphur all of which have not worked, the obvious alternative left to you is to use the Graphites 30c and observe after a week how it helps.

Eczema is a difficult problem to cure and even in the case I used it successfully about 6 months ago the patient has to take Arnica 6 every night as otherwise it recurs. I used the 30c at the start which cleared the chronic problem in just 3 days and after the lesions disappeared, I lowered the potency down to 6c nightly. He reported to me that he sleeps very soundly and feels very well and that his slightly elevated blood sugar level which he also had for some time is not bothering him any more.

Do not lose hope to help your son and feel free to post your observations from time to time on this Forum to enable all of us to suggest alternate remedies to help him.

Leo & Maria. Did you ever begin the Juglans Cinerea 30C?

Please give only 3 doses and then wait and watch. Old symptoms may occur or new ones.

Watch for these things and report. Sometimes H. goes back to the cause, and we may or may not know the cause in a young child. But if an older symptom shows itself, it must then be treated...possibly with another remedy.

If they look like a BB shot, 3 is a dose.

The tiny ones look much like grains of sand. 5 or 6 is one dose. No need to actually "count," this is to caution the "least given" for those that think "more is better"...NOT.

"roll" the bottle to get them out. Shaking the bottle may cause too many to bounce out.

Do not put back into the bottle, it contaminates the remedy. Better to use it as it is no different, just a waste when less will work.

Years ago we gave much more amount as a dose and found it unnecessary.

Keep us posted. If there is an increase of symptoms, wait longer before the next dose.

Nothing should EVER be apllied to skin complaints. Doing so merely supresses the disease and drives it deeper inside the body, where it causes more severe problems. This is one of the most important rules of Homoeopathy.

My son had eczema from head to toe since he was 2 months. I was using aquaphor, eucerin, you name it. Nothing Helped!!! I took him to a homeopath doctor when he turned 5 months ( I wished I knew about homeopathy earlier). My son is 15 months now and his eczema is 90% gone. It is getting better every month. His face was so red and dry, people were asking me what was wrong with him. His face is 100% clean. First, like every one else, I doubted my son could be cured of this chronic disease. I am a believer now and I am posting on every site so that mothers seek homeopathic remedy. I know what you are going through, but believe me, homeopathy helps!! if one treatment did not work for him, there are hundreds other (as well as homeopathic doctors). Look for Classical Homeopaths. If you are in Bay Area ( California), I will refer you to the one my son went:)
No worries!! Your son will be cured in no time. And pleaseee , stop using steroids.
