current medicine you are taking

current medicine from last 10 days- calcarea sulphurica - 6x - 4 times a day.
eruptions and itching is there.


past 6 months
Consulting a homeopathic physician - acne itching stopped, right from the start.
but eruptions not much improvement significantly..
don't know wot medication i got..
but also got 3 tropical applications..one silica like paste - to suck the oil,
scrub cream - to exfoliate,
gel - to improve complexion and puncture acne..
improvement fine..but too much time and attention required and cost also high about Rs.1300 per month cost

and some times during treatment used to reoccur with big eruptions, though following strict diet and hygiene.



Brief medical history

so far no any serious condition admitted, expect for
cold and fever and diarrhea due to external factors..
mostly suffer from cold and get bronchial congestion
(kapha) which takes a couple of weeks to go away..other
wise healthy..only

Previously for acne had tried allopathy
with moderate success but kept reoccurring. medications like
benzoyl peroxide, creams, soaps only.
Was using only ayur cleanser or other facial cleansers, just
wiping the face with cotton reduced the acne on face upto 95%.
dont' smoke.
occasionally have a beer.
don't eat outside, no tea or coffee.. drink milk
BP checked.
thyroid checked.


Need acne dosage to cure and stop pricking. acne from 12 years.
Need to control anxiety before driving and official meetings.
Need to gain weight.
And regulate bowel movement to 1 per day.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Whats are the effect of Calcarea Sulph.

Do you notice any change from this medicine at all.
 
Dr. Rakesh Km Lko last decade
Dr. Rakesh..Thnks a lot for the response.

Only change I notice is that the acne ripens or suppurates a lot faster..

some acne which had been there for months, have also begun developing pus and breaking..especially near the outside ears.

I have stopped calcarea sulphurica from the last 7 days and just cleansing my face with rose water.

The eruptions and itching is still there..but due to cold weather, its little less.
 
bestashok last decade
Be frankly, I had tried some cases of problems like you have, but unable to provide any significant improvement and these people discontinued treatment.

So my sincere advise would be to not invest such money i.e. 1300 monthly and over medicated your body.

Sincerley,
 
Dr. Rakesh Km Lko last decade
These people had also tried all things, but unable to find a significan cure.
 
Dr. Rakesh Km Lko last decade
DR. Rakesh, I really appreciate ur honest answers.

And yes I realised it lately and will stop henceforth.

But I guess there must be a solution, atleast to reduce the itching from my acne..

Regards..

Try antidandruf shampoo to wash face and report back me if it helps you as I am working on such cases and will post a blogpost soon on my blog soon.
 
Dr. Rakesh Km Lko last decade
I have never had any dandruff.

but coincidentally I have tried that in the past, though it(shampoo) does keep my face soft and retains the moisture, it does not remove the excess oil and neither has any affect on the acne and eruptions or the itching.

yes, the aloe gel or a prickly heat powder solved my itching to an extent, but had to apply every day.

I am planning to take sulphur 30C after some searching on my own. Your feedback will be most welcome.
Regards.
 
bestashok last decade
Hi Dr. Rakesh. expecting ur response..
 
bestashok last decade
Apply Ledum.pal 30c liquid dilution directly on the pimples and report back after a week.

Ya, sure..thnks a lot for ur response..
 
bestashok last decade
Try good quality anti-dandruf shampoo.

Sulphur is also good if you find yourself fit for Sulphur.
 
Dr. Rakesh Km Lko last decade
Good to hear from u Dr. Rakesh..

Ya, sure i will go ahead with sulphur..and will get back to you ASAP.

Regards..
 
bestashok last decade
Please note you should take daily one dose in morning and stop whenever you notice worsening caused by Sulphur and resume taking when back to normal state.

You also need to take it for long time and should stop taking whenever you think you are getting symptoms caused by Sulphur itself.

Moving another city where weather condition is not humid can improve your condition. If you have any such arrangement you should try this.
 
Dr. Rakesh Km Lko last decade
Thnks a lot for ur concern..I really appreciate that..almost forgot to ask how to take sulphur...thanks again for giving those inputs before I could ask..

Although moving to another city, looks out of question as of now.

Regards..
