The ABC Homeopathy Forum
Eczema armpits
Dear sirs,i am posting on behalf of a family member (female, 28 years old) for whom i had posted once more some months ago. I was not sure whether i should revive that thread or open a new one; if so, do excuse me, i'll edit my older thread. Details here: https://www.abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php.... is about eczema developing 10 days ago, first in the left armpit with lots of itching even at night and very red. Then two days ago on the right armpit as well. Same very intense itching. It apparently had to do with a new deodorant, although she had been using it for 3 weeks (and in much much hotter weather) before the eczema appeared. The local homeopath prescribed Sulfur, it didn't help much; it was only one day with less itching but still very red, then absolutely no change. SInce 2 days, Graphites; that helped a bit but very slowly, i.e. the urge to scratch it is less strong but the deep red colour of the skin remains. Both armpits are full of it now. She is taking Graphites 200 CH 3 x daily. The only change is the slightly diminishing urge to scratch it. Hot water aggravates that urge. Sweating aggravates it too. The more hours go by after taking Graphites, the more the itching starts returning and stops for some hours right after taking it.
4 days ago, she got sudden pain on the very low back but she cannot recall doing any movement to cause that pain. I do not know if it is related to any possible bigger picture but i thought i should mention it too.
The other albeit small skin issues from June (the ones the old thread had to do with) are still present.
Do you happen to have any suggestions? Thank you.

Feedback: there has been some improvement especially today, i.e. the area of the irritated skin stopped getting bigger, there is less itching and comparatively less redness. The itch returns ca.4 hours after taking each dosis, at night as well. And it diminishes again soon after taking the pellets, esp. after today's each dosis.
Warm water aggravates the itching and the redness.
How does that sound to you? What do you suggest?
