Dry skin can lead to itching, scratching, bleeding, parched lips, cracked skin and even wrinkles, but worse than all these symptoms, it can really affect the psyche of a person, making him or her very self-conscious about the physical appearance and lowering the confidence levels as a result. The intensity of skin dryness can vary from mild dryness to severe dryness with cracks. Bleeding may also occur from cracks and in a few persons, dry skin can be accompanied by wrinkling of the skin. Winter season mainly marks the onset of dry skin. There is no shortage of advertisements regarding creams and lotions which claim to be ‘cures’ of dry skin, but all these are only very temporary solutions which fail to strike at the root of the problem. Homeopathy offers a very effective mode of treatment of dry skin. The dry skin is treated with natural medicines in Homeopathy. Homeopathic remedies for Dry Skin are totally free from any side effect and act as a natural source to nourish the skin, remove the dryness and replenish the skin’s normal texture.

I have a daughter whois 10 year old has atopic dermatitis , she had eczema until now in very few spots was controlled with steroid cream application once a week or so. I decide to get her Homeopathiic treatment , we saw a doc here in Dallas, he gave her treatment , that made her condition wo worse, that her eczema spread all over her face and body. she took the treatment for 1 week, then we stopped. My friend in India who is homeopathic consultant , I talked to hime who recommended Lycopodium 6 , that aggravated her condition, he then asked me to give Sulphur 6 , I gave one dose , she started oozing and her eczema was more worse. Is topped dat embed after 1 dose. She still continues to itch , her symptoms , mental match Sulphur , bur somehow I feel when ever I give her Sulphur sheets worse and does not sleep at all , her itching is worse at night , though she itches all day as well.
Can you please guide us , I can have you as consultant
