Acne, Pimples - Treatment & Homeopathic Medicines

#Sulphur [Sulph]
Is perhaps the remedy most often indicated in this affection, especially if chronic. The skin is rough and hard and the acne is associated with comedones and constipation; great aggravation from water is the characteristic leading to Sulphur in skin affections. The acne punctata is the variety corresponding most nearly to Sulphur. Simple forms yield to Belladonna or Pulsatilla. Acne rosacea yields to Arsenicum iodatum or Sulphur iodide.



#Sanguinaria [Sang]
Is another useful remedy in acne, especially in women with scanty menses and irregular circulation of blood. Other remedies for acne dependent on sexual disturbances of women are Calcarea carbonica and Aurum muriaticum natronatrum.#Kali bromatum [Kali.br]produces an acne on the face, neck and shoulders. We frequently find an acne in Epileptics who have been maltreated by bromides. This remedy is especially adapted to the acne simplex and the acne indurata, especially in hyperaesthetic, nervous females, and the late Dr. Martin Deschere loudly praised it. Since Kali bromatum has been found a useful remedy in sexual excesses it will be especially a remedy in acne due to that cause. Dr. J.H.Clarke says, "I know of no remedy of such universal usefulness in cases of simple acne as Kali bromatum 30," and the late Dr.A.M. Cushing recommended Arsenicum bromatum 4x as very efficacious.Thuja is one of our best remedies for acne facialis. Calcarea picrata is also a useful remedy for acne; clinically it has been found one of the good remedies. Calcarea sulphurica is indicated where the pimples suppurate.





#Antimonium crudum [Ant.c]
Small red pimples on face, acne in drunkards with gastric derangements,thirst and white-coated tongue. Antimonium tartaricum. Obstinate cases, with tendency to pustulation, are curable with this remedy. Berberis aquifolium is useful where the skin is rough and the acne persistent. Natrum muriaticum acts especially on the sebaceous glands, and is a very helpful remedy in acne.In this affection attention must be directed especially to the patient's type, temperament and tendencies and the general symptoms are far mores important than the local ones.

Acne/Pimples and Homeopathy

Acne - Introduction

Acne is a skin disorder in which the sebaceous glands or oil secreting glands present in the skin of face, chest and back become over-sensitive to normal levels of androgen. If you are teenager, chances are pretty good that you have some pimples. Eight out of every ten teens have acne. Many adults from their 20's to 40's or older can also have acne. Acne often clears up after several years even without any treatment. But, untreated acne may leave scars if you wait to outgrow it. There are various types of acne - Pimples (Blackheads, Whiteheads), Papules, Pustules, Nodules, and Cysts.

There are many reasons for occurrence of pimples. Teenagers & young adults are more prone to getting acne due to the normal hormonal changes that take place at that age. Poor personal hygienic conditions may cause accumulation of dirt and grease which block skin pores leading to pimples. If you have dandruff, that can fall on the face and back and become another cause of pimples.

The following factors may aggravate the conditions: eating excess of oily food, sweets, chocolates, improper diet & food habits, cosmetics, overexposure to the sun, smoking, alcohol, drugs, constipation, insufficient rest, lack of exercise etc...
Patients with acne are often embarrassed by their appearance which could lead to lack of self-confidence, anxiety and depression.





Homeopathic Approach

Homeopathy offers natural, effective remedies for patients suffering from Acne. By undergoing homoeopathic treatment, they would notice a drying up of pimples/acne and a reduction in the number of existing acne. There will also be a reduction in associated symptoms like pain, burning and itching. The skin texture will also improve. Acne is a skin disorder which should be treated holistically from within the body and not superficially using ointments and creams because the outward eruption that we see is the mirror reflection of the internal disorder of the body. Homoeopathy is a system of medicine which has a different approach to disease and remedy from that of conventional system of medicine. In the conventional allopathic approach, medicines are used that work against diseases and their symptoms. In Homoeopathy, the symptoms of an illness are viewed as a direct manifestation of the body's attempt to heal itself and a Homoeopathic substance is given that is capable of producing similar symptoms if given to a well person. In so doing, Homoeopathic system attempts to stimulate the body's own natural healing capacity with Homoeopathic remedies acting as a trigger for the body's own healing forces.
