HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT FOR SKIN DISEASES (Eczema, Allergic Dermatitis, Uriticaria, Skin Allergy, Psoriasis, Herpes etc)
Note. Skin affections ares merely local manifestations of some constitutional affection. They represent the effort of nature to get rid of some poison in the system, congenital or acquired, which effort should not be suppressed but abetted. The indications for our remedies will not only aid in this by correction of the soil, but also avoid the dangers of suppression by external applications.
#Graphites. [Graph]
our great remedy for all sorts of skin diseases, no doubt often mis-prescribed, and hence frequently disappoints. The symptoms calling for it are very clear; there are moist scabby eruptions on the scalp, face, bends of joints, between fingers and behind the ears.

Dryness and heat of scalp, with intense itching, especially at night, and scratching causes soreness; wetting makes it burn. Eczema erythematosum. Eruption of yellow crusts.

Indications are a dry and impoverished skin, cold hands and feet. Psoriasis is a pregrowth symptom of cancer.
