Individualized homoeopathic care in chronic eczema of the hands: A case study
Shalini Vadhwani and Shobhana Shukla
Chronic hand eczema significantly impacts quality of life, presenting with itching, fissures, dryness, and discomfort. Conventional treatments often provide temporary relief and carry risks with long-term use. This case report describes a 40-year-old male with chronic finger eczema, aggravated by cold exposure, associated with constipation and a chilly constitution. Individualized homoeopathic evaluation led to the prescription of Graphites 200C, resulting in progressive improvement of skin lesions, relief from itching, normalization of bowel habits, and overall well-being. No recurrence was observed during follow-up, and external applications were unnecessary. The case emphasizes the holistic approach of homoeopathy, addressing both local pathology and constitutional tendencies, and highlights the potential of homoeopathy in managing chronic, eczema.
