Sulphur A great remedy for Psoriasis!
Psoriasis is a obstinate skin condition in which the red patches ofvarious sizes skin develops on the skin that are covered with dry,
silvery scales. Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease that got its
name from the Greek word meaning, "itch."
In psoriasis the skin becomes inflamed and red eruptions appear on
the surface of the skin that begin to itch excessively. These areas
form thickened areas (plaques) that are covered with silvery scales
over the reddened lesions. The skin at the joints may crack.
The Psoriatic Nail:
About 50 percent of persons with active psoriasis have psoriatic
changes in fingernails and/or toenails. In some instances psoriasis
may occur only in the nails and nowhere else on the body. Nail
changes in psoriasis fall into general categories that may occur
singly or all together:
The nail plate is deeply pitted or depressed
The nail has a yellow to yellow-pink discoloration
White areas appear under the nail plate. There may be reddened
skin around the nail.
The nail plate crumbles in yellowish patches (onychodystrophy)
The nail may be entirely lost.
Why homeopathy for psoriasis:
The major benefits of homeopathy could be summarized as under:
- It is constitutional; hence there is deep-level healing and
recovery.
- It offers long-lasting cure instead of temporary relief.
- It significantly reduces chances of relapse.
Homoeopathy has positive influence in curtailing course of disease
in term of reducing further spread of disease to previously non-
involved areas.
- It is absolutely harmless, safe and non-toxic.
- The over all success rate at our center is over 75%.
Homoeopathy medicines:
Homoeopathy has potential to stimulate body's natural healing
capacity and to restore the disturbed immune system.
There are around 3000 homoeopathy medicines derived from various
natural resources and effective against plethora of diseases. Among
all sulphur is very frequently used homoeopathy medicines for
psoriasis is described here:
Sulphur 30, 200 and 1000 potency
Sulphur:
Sulphur is very commonly indicated homoeopathy medicines for a range
of skin disorders including urticaria. It is a true polychrest
remedy having influence on various systems of body like skin,
stomach, rectum, urinary system, respiratory system, etc.
In patients with psoriasis, Sulphur is indicated when skin is dry,
scaly, and unhealthy; every little injury suppurates. Skin ailments
are associated with lot of itching and burning that becomes worse on
scratching and washing. Itching more in the evening. Skin
excoriations especially in folds. Skin becomes dry and hard. Feeling
of a band around bones. Skin affections that develop after local
medication. This remedy is more suited to thin and weak individuals
who are very sensitive to heat. Mentally suited to people who are
nearly always irritated and depressed. They are very forgetful. They are either too busy or they dare lazy and do not feel like doing work. Some of them may have a feeling that they are immensely
wealthy when in reality the situation is opposite.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
My mother has psoriasis to the point where her organs have been affected (by the medicine that she's taken, I think). She's tried EVERYTHING and is now on meds that essentially make her sick but clear up her skin to a reasonable level. The only other thing that worked was an extreme change in her diet, but she didn't want to keep that up.
What potency and what course of dosage would you recommend for her?

roxanne---do not confuse shamid's speech with prescription--many other remedies can treat psoriasis--why he make not clear or answer himself--maybe just like speeches--
nasmate---symptoms always guide to remedy choice
difference between ecema and psoriais
ill-ness name not matter---but if excema is suppressed often see asthmatic condition occur---psoriasis when suppressed often go to joints--arthritic condition
still names no matter--only symptoms

Sulphur is indicated when skin is dry, scaly, and unhealthy; every little injury suppurates.
In chronic cases Sulphur should be given in high potency like 10M or CM
only one dose for one month.

Take one dose of Sulphur 200 and repeat the same after 7 days.
Please do remember!
Homoeopathic medicines are very sensitive, keep the medicines away from light, and all homoeopathic medicines must be kept away from aromatic substances and perfumes., avoid eating mint-flavored sweets, gums and avoid touching the medicines, avoid smoking or drinking coffee when you are taking homoeopathic remedy.

Dear Dr. Hamid,
I am having Psoriasis for last 2 years. Silvery scales (with red base) come up at places on my back and thighs. There is no itching at all. On applying Clop-MG ointment, these go away, but reappear at some other places within 2-3 weeks. I am having dandruff on scalp and even on my eye-lids. I have frequent problem of cold and cough.
What do you suggest, considering, there is no itching?
Regards,
Vaibhav

Yes, it is perfectly safe to do so. However, you should not attempt to reduce your other medication without supervision from your doctor, and if you seek any advice about your health problem you may consult your health care first or consult registered qualified Homoeopathic physician near to you.

SULPHUR:
When carefully selected remedies fail to produce a favorable effect, especially in acute diseases, it frequently serves to rouse the reactive powers of the system; clears up the case (in chronic diseases, Psor.). Scrofulous, psoric, chronic diseases that result from suppressed eruptions (Caust., Psor.).
Relations. - Complementary: Aloe, Psor. Ailments from the abuse of metals generally. Compatible: Calc., Lyc., Puls., Sars., Sep. Sulph., Calc., Lyc.; or Sulph., Sars., Sep. frequently follow in given order. Calcarea must not be used before Sulphur. Sulphur is the chronic of Aconite and follows it well in pneumonia and other acute diseases.

Remember that when a remedy works there can be a temporary return of symptoms before the problem improves. The aggravation is your body responding to the remedy energy pattern.
museon 2 decades ago
Don't do anything to disturb the action of the medicine.Your aggravation will go away in about 2 weeks maximum.Wait patiently.
bandarbabu2000 2 decades ago
My advice is if you can wait,wait for another week.
If the situation is unberable,try your normal allopathic medicines,which helped you in the past.
Did you stop your allopathic medicines after taking this remedy?Dr.Hamid asked you not to stop them.
Pl.come back

well.. I am using my allopathic medicines. But, they don't give long lasting relief. It's just they supress patches for a week or so.
vaibhavk 2 decades ago
murthy--that kind of advice is dangerous...better to say nothing..." go back to suppressing skin eruptions..."-----foolish indeed......if shamid isnt responding--what gives you right--unless you are going to help and that advice isnt helping........
