Abstract: Eczema is common chronic dermatological condition, affecting about 20% of children and up to 10% of adults. Its etiology is multifactorial and presents as erythema, oedema, papules, vesicles, scaling, and lichenified depending upon chronicity of skin lesions. Usually emollients and local adrenocorticosteroids are used as conventional treatment which suppress local condition arousing internal malady and other symptoms which previously existed in latent state. A case of 30 years female suffering from bleeding eczema on both hands for 1 year was treated successfully by single individualized homoeopathic medicine Lachesis mutus 200 C. Modified Naranjo Criteria Score was used to establish causal attribution, with total score of 9. This evidence-based case report clearly shows the positive role of homoeopathy in treatment of eczema.
