The ABC Homeopathy Forum
I need your help please
Dear doctors,I need some advice from you. I've been feeling depressed for very long now and as a consequence I started to suffer from dyshidrotic eczema which the dermatologists can't resolve. I've been reading a lot about homeopathy and I believe I'm a Natrium Muricatium. I suffered from asthma when I was a child and since I'm a teenager I stopped having asthma and started having rhinitis with abundant coryza. I'm also a very anxious person.
Could you please help me? Should I take Natrium Muriaticum? In what doses? Do you need further information?
I thank you in advance.
Sofia

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
No harm in trying one dose, go ahead and have Nat-Mur 200c, single dose only.

I was reading other posts in this forum and found an old one which I related to and a homeopath suggested to this women to take nat-mur 200ch for three days, a single dose per day. Should I take two more doses today and tomorrow?
Thank you for your help.

Please answer the following questions in a descriptive manner after careful analysis and recollection of previous experience and happenings.
1. Describe your main suffering? State the correct location.
Dishidrotic eczema on both feet and both hands. Started in left foot and spread. It lasts for almost one year now and is always getting worse. It iches a lot. I have small blisters with liquid that itches and causes the skin to crack and bleed. It's painful too.

Fitness,
I'm feeling some pain in the areas affected by the eczema, like it is burning. Is this a good thing?

Fitness, my feet and hands are improving a lot. I don't have any new blisters and the skin is starting to heal. I guess Nat-Mur really helped me and was te suitable medicine for me.
On the other hand, my 5 year old son is getting worse and worse everyday. :(
I gave him a dose of Nat-Mur but it didn't help him at all. Please help me find the remedy for him. I already gave some informations about him. I could really use your help. Thank you in advance.

To avoid confusion, please start a new post for your son stating his problem. Either me or someone else will ask questions and you can respond.
fitness 9 years ago
I'm updating on my case. I believe Nat-Mur helped me a lot when I took it but now I stopped watching any improvement. I don't get new blisters but my skin is still very dry and sore. It isn't regenerating as it should and it still itches. Should I take another dose? Should I try a different potency?
Thank you.
Thank you.
