Dermatitis & Homoeopathy – A Gentle, Holistic Healing Approach for Skin Inflammation

Dermatitis & Homoeopathy – A Gentle, Holistic Healing Approach for Skin Inflammation

Dermatitis is a broad term used for inflammation of the skin, presenting with redness, itching, dryness, burning, or oozing. It includes various forms such as atopic dermatitis, allergic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and more.

While conventional treatments often rely on steroids and antihistamines, these only provide temporary relief and may worsen the condition in the long run. Homoeopathy offers a natural, long-term, safe treatment approach that heals from within.

⭐ What Is Dermatitis?

Dermatitis is caused by inflammation of the upper layers of the skin (epidermis), triggered by:

• Allergens

• Irritants

• Stress

• Immune overreaction

• Hormonal imbalance

• Environmental factors

Common symptoms include:

• Red or pink skin patches

• Severe itching

• Dryness & scaling

• Crust formation or oozing

• Burning sensation

• Thickened skin from repeated scratching

Different types of dermatitis require different treatment approaches—a key strength of homoeopathy.

🌿 Types of Dermatitis Commonly Treated in Homoeopathy

1️⃣ Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema)

Often starts in childhood—dry, itchy, red patches aggravated by stress, weather change, or allergens.

2️⃣ Allergic Contact Dermatitis

Caused by allergens like metals, fragrances, cosmetics, colours, latex, etc.

3️⃣ Irritant Contact Dermatitis

Triggered by soaps, detergents, chemicals, or repeated hand-washing.

4️⃣ Seborrheic Dermatitis

Dandruff, flaky scalp, redness around eyebrows, beard, and chest.

5️⃣ Nummular Dermatitis

Round coin-shaped patches with intense itching.

6️⃣ Perioral Dermatitis

Red bumps and dryness around the mouth.

✨ Root Causes of Dermatitis

Dermatitis is not only a skin problem—it reflects deeper internal imbalances:

• Genetic predisposition

• Hyperactive immune response

• Stress & emotional triggers

• Poor skin barrier function

• Hormonal fluctuations

• Food sensitivities

• Climate triggers (heat, humidity, cold)

Homoeopathy focuses on correcting these internal causes, giving lasting results.
