Skin allergies appear as itching, rashes, hives, eczema or swelling after contact with an allergen or as part of a general allergic tendency. The skin often reflects what is happening inside the body.
Common signs
- Itching, redness and rash
- Hives (urticaria) that come and go
- Dry, cracked or oozing patches
- Reaction to cosmetics, metals, detergents or foods
How homoeopathy approaches it
Rather than suppressing the symptom alone, a homoeopathic physician studies the whole person — the pattern of complaints, what makes them better or worse, general health, temperament and history — and selects a remedy that matches that individual picture. Treatment aims to raise the body’s own resistance so that relief is lasting and relapses become fewer. Explore eczema, urticaria, pruritus, dandruff, alopecia and brittle nails.
