Homoeopathic management of non-communicable chronic skin conditions: A clinical study on the effectiveness of homoeopathic medicines for exacerbations of psoriasis

Abstract

Non-communicable chronic skin illnesses like psoriasis, vitiligo, and lichen planus have an increasing worldwide burden and are challenging to treat therapeutically. Despite the fact that there are many treatment options available under conventional therapies, these approaches cannot be taken into consideration in the long run due to their unfavourable side effects and excessive financial implications. These diseases exhibit remissions and exacerbations throughout their chronic course, which are frequently discouraging for both patients and doctors. Therefore, the major goal was to determine the effectiveness of homoeopathic medications in treating acute psoriasis exacerbations, and the secondary goal was to identify the primary triggering events producing these exacerbations. Here, based on conventional homoeopathic principles, we provide a prospective clinical investigation on the efficiency of homoeopathic medications in treating psoriasis flare-ups. Homoeopathic management provided good symptomatic relief in patients suffering from exacerbations of psoriasis.
