Psoriasis is more than just a skin condition. I’ve been dealing with it for the past 7-8 years. My journey with psoriasis has not only given me a personal understanding of the condition but also shaped the way I approach treatment as a homoeopath.
Understanding Psoriasis:
Psoriasis is a chronic skin disorder that accelerates the life cycle of skin cells, causing them to build up on the surface, forming itchy, scaly patches. It’s more than just a cosmetic issue, this condition can deeply affect one’s quality of life, leading to discomfort, itching, and at times, even pain.
My Personal Battle :
As a doctor, dealing with psoriasis wasn’t just a professional matter, but a personal one too. The red patches on my skin, the constant itchiness, and the social awkwardness it brought were overwhelming. I tried conventional treatments, like topical steroids, but the results were often temporary, and the side effects felt like another set of problems. It wasn’t until I turned to homeopathy, something I had always believed in that I found real, lasting relief.
How Homeopathy Helps in Psoriasis:
Homeopathy isn’t just about treating symptoms but addressing the root cause. Psoriasis isn’t just a skin condition; it’s often linked to the immune system, stress, and emotional health. That’s where homeopathy stands out. It’s a holistic system of medicine that focuses on the individual, not just the disease.
Here’s how homeopathy has helped me manage psoriasis:
- Personalized Treatment: Treatment: Every individual’s psoriasis is different, and homeopathy provides treatment to your unique needs. My prescription wasn’t a one-size-fits-all cream but a customized plan based on your symptoms, triggers, and overall health.
- Boosting Immunity: Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition, meaning the body mistakenly attacks healthy skin cells. My homeopathic treatment focused on strengthening my immune system and balancing its response to prevent these flare-ups.
- Holistic Approach: Homeopathy takes into account the emotional, mental, and physical state of a woman. Remedies address symptoms like anxiety, depression, and mood swings just as much as they target physical symptoms like hot flashes and insomnia.
- Gentle, Safe Healing: Unlike harsh treatments that just suppress the symptoms, homeopathy works gently with the body to heal from within. It was a slower process but much more sustainable in the long run. Over time, I saw a reduction in flare-ups, and my skin started to clear.
Lifestyle Changes to Support Menopause
While homeopathic remedies are highly effective, lifestyle adjustments can further help ease menopause symptoms:
- Balanced Diet: Incorporating foods rich in calcium, fiber, and phytoestrogens (like soy and flaxseeds) can support bone health and reduce hot flashes.
- Regular Exercise: Exercise helps in maintaining a healthy weight, boosting mood, and improving sleep. Weight-bearing exercises like walking, yoga, and light strength training are particularly beneficial for bone health.
- Managing Stress: Stress is a major trigger for psoriasis, and I learned that emotional well-being is crucial to managing the condition. Homeopathic remedies, like Arsenicum Album and Graphites, not only targeted my skin symptoms but also helped me feel more calm and centered.
- Hydration: Drinking enough water can help alleviate symptoms like dryness and bloating.
The Transformation:
After years of battling psoriasis, my skin has improved dramatically with homeopathy. The flare-ups that used to control my life are now rare and much more manageable. This personal transformation inspired me to help others suffering from psoriasis through my practice.
