Acne- homeopathic treatment
acne and homeopathy…Let?s take the big question head-on. Does homeopathic treatment give permanent relief from those recurrent pimples? The answer is a big yes, but the treatment is quite different from the conventional ones. Homeopaths realise the truth in skin disorders. All forms of pimples (acne) are due to an internal disorder, Thus the usage of external application does not yield permanent results. Internal homeopathic medication is often the best natural option to stop the recurrence of acne and that too without side-effects. Medically speaking too, acne results out of an internal disorder. It is a disorder resulting from the action of hormones on the skin?s oil glands (sebaceous glands), which leads to plugged pores and the outbreak of lesions commonly called pimples or acne. They usually occur on the face, neck, back, chest, and shoulders. An important causative factor is an increase in hormones called androgens (male sex hormones). These increase in both boys and girls during puberty and cause the sebaceous glands to enlarge and make more sebum (oil). Hormonal changes related to pregnancy or starting or stopping birth control pills can also cause acne.Another factor is heredity or genetics. Researchers believe that the tendency to develop acne can be inherited from parents. For example, studies have shown that many school-age boys with acne have a family history of the disorder. Certain drugs, including androgens and lithium, are known to cause acne. Greasy cosmetics may alter the cells of the follicles and make them stick together, producing a plug.The following factors also influence the growth of acne: Changing hormone levels in adolescent girls and adult women two to seven days before their menstrual period starts; friction caused by leaning on or rubbing the skin pressure from backpacks, or tight collars; environmental irritants such as pollution and high humidity; squeezing or picking at blemishes, hard scrubbing of the skin, etc.Medicines for acneBelladonna: It is very useful in an acute flare-up where pus formation hasn?t started and acne is red and fiery looking. 30c potency of belladonna taken internally 3-4 times a day can be used to treat this acute stage.Pulsatilla: It is often the most indicated medicine in the treatment of acne in girls. Acne associated with menstrual abnormalities are often best treated with pulsatilla. It is strongly indicated in a mild, yielding and sensitive personality with a weeping disposition.Sulphur: No other medicine is more effective than sulphur, and covers nearly all kinds of acne. Dirty unhealthy skin and abuse of cosmetics are leading indication for its use. It is very useful in stopping the recurrence of pimples. Sulphur is a very deep acting medicine and should be used only in consultation with an experienced homoeopath.Hepar sulph: Hepar sulph. is very appropriate for treating acne that has an easy tendency to develop into pustules (filled with pus), also where acne is very painful to touch.Silicea (also called Silica): It is often indicated in cases of long-standing acne along with general low resistance and is often used for its scar-dissolving properties.Developing a natural resistance towards acne: Once the acute flare-ups have been attended to, one would like a natural resistance towards acne. A thorough constitutional treatment by an experienced homoeopath would do the needfulThis feature ( authored by Dr. Vikas Sharma ) was earlier published in The Tribune(north India?s largest circulated daily newspaper).

Hi,
I’m a 20 years old (unmarried) boy. My blood group is “O+” my height is 5ft 9′and I weight 63kgs and I am non-vegetarian.
I have an oily skin with too many pimples, acnes and blackheads on my face, recently I don’t eat chocolates and egg at all even I don’t drink colas but still there is no change.
I wash my face whenever I come back to home from outside or whenever I think it’s looking too oily means at least 4 times in a day. Whenever I wash my face with this soap my skin gets too dry and itchy. I don’t use any cream at all but my cheeks are full of pimples and acne. Even when I go out I do not apply anything on my face . Please , tell me that what should I do.

I’ve had mild to moderate acne since my mid twenties . I am now 32 years old. I sometimes develop large cyst like nodules. I tried Nelsons pure & clear 4step homeopath acne treatment. It included taking 30c sulphur tablets. I took as prescribed, two tablets three times per day until symptoms subside. Took for about 11 days. Acne seemed to get worse so I discontinued use. Now I keep getting more cysts. Please help. Thank you.

Hi doctor. I have been a victim of acne since age 16. I am not turning 21 and my face has gotten worse. I started homeopathic treatment last year in September. My face cleared up for 4 months and after that the acne started reappearing. My doctor then changed my medicne to pulsatilla and sulphur while made it really bad, big cystic acne. I continuted the treatment anyways, the doctor keep increaing the concentration. Slowly it came under control but not completely plus i had lots of scars. Then again, 2 months ago, acne started coming.So my doctro is now giving me kali brom, berb aqua, cimicifuga and liver cleanse but my acne is only aggravating. Please help me, i am so depressed due to this since so long. My cheeks are covered, i really need help.
