A case of eczema treated with arsenic album: A case report

Abstract

Eczema can occur as a response on being exposed to a particular substance of environment. Eczema is a superficial inflammation of skin. In conventional medicine, it is treated with emollients and tropical steroids. In Homoeopathy the literature suggests a few remedies for sea-shore aggravation. Also the synthesis repertory covers only 12 medicines for the same. We have presented the case of 61 Year old female with eruptions on both palms with intense itching and burning aggravation by sea-shore, who was treated with homoeopathic medicine arsenic album. It is clearly apparent from this evidence-based case report that homoeopathy has a positive role in treatment of eczema.
