  • Alopecia Aerate

    Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune disorder that often results in unpredictable hair loss.

    The cause of alopecia areata is probably an autoimmune reaction. This means the body's immune system incorrectly attacks the body's own cells. In the case of alopecia areata, the cells under attack are in the hair follicles (structures that grow hair), especially follicles within the scalp.

    The most prominent symptom of alopecia areata is patchy hair loss. Coin-sized patches of hair begin to fall out, mainly from the scalp. Any site of hair growth may be affected, though, including the beard and eyelashes. The loss of hair can be sudden, developing in just a few days or over a period of a few weeks.

    SYMPTOMS

  • Gradual thinning on top of head. This is the most common type of hair loss, affecting both men and women as they age. ...
  • Circular or patchy bald spots. ...
  • Sudden loosening of hair. ...
  • Full-body hair loss. ...
  • Patches of scaling that spread over the scalp.

  • Atopic dermatitis (eczema) is a condition that makes your skin red and itchy. It's common in children but can occur at any age. Atopic dermatitis is long lasting (chronic) and tends to flare periodically. It may be accompanied by asthma or hay fever. No cure has been found for atopic dermatitis

    SYMPTOMS

  • Dry, scaly skin.
  • Redness.
  • Itching.
  • Cracks behind the ears.
  • A rash on the cheeks, arms and/or legs.

  • Lichen Planus

    Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inflammatory and immune mediated disease that affects the skin, nails, hair, and mucous membranes.

    SYMPTOMS

  • purplish-colored lesions or bumps with flat tops on your skin or genitals.
  • lesions that develop and spread over the body over the course of several weeks or a few months.
  • itching at the site of the rash.
  • lacy-white lesions in the mouth, which may be painful or cause a burning sensation.
  • Molluscum Contagiosum
  • Molluscum contagiosum is caused by a virus (the molluscum contagiosum virus) that is part of the pox virus family. The virus is contagious
  • The molluscum contagiosum virus remains in the top layer of skin (epidermis) and does not circulate throughout the body; therefore, it cannot spread through coughing or sneezing. Since the virus lives only in the top layer of skin, once the lesions are gone the virus is gone and you cannot spread it to others.

  • SYMPTOMS

    The first signs and symptoms of molluscum contagiosum are small painless papules (raised bumps or lumps) on the skin (molluscum lesions). It often appears as a raised, pearly pinkish or pearl-like nodule or redness on the skin; some nodules contain a dimple in the center.

Homeopathy is a medical system which has been in use over 200 years developed by German physician Dr Samuel Hahnemann based on the belief that the body can cure itself. Those who practice it use tiny amounts of natural substances, like plants and minerals. They believe these stimulate the healing process. This is also mentioned in ancient Hindu manuscripts.
