Treatment of Eczema

Eczema is an ailment that has defied modern medicine and the therapy usually comprises the use of Corticosteroids and Antibiotics both of which help the patient as long as they are in use.

I have treated many chronic cases one of whom is a patient who is now 94 years of age. He is an electrical engineer by profession and in his youth he was unable to go about his duties in shorts due to the problem of exposing his lesions in public. He informed me that he had been suffering from Eczema since his teenage years and had tried many therapies including Ayurvedha, Unani and Doctors but with no success. He reported that in just a week the itching and oozing of plasma on his shin and ankles stopped and he was cured in about a month.

The remedy which has helped many is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily and also applied directly on the face. This topical application must be done without contaminating the contents of the remedy in the bottle by poking fingers into it and is best done by pouring out some of the remedy on to a saucer and wetting the fingers in it for application to the lesions.

The majority of patients have reported that the lesions usually dry out in 3 days and the ailment is usually cured in a week. It is necessary however that the patient takes the remedy but just once daily for at least 3 months as there is a tendency for it to return otherwise.

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in a 5ml Alcohol pack aka Liquid Dilution in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
If this is not available the Dry dose in pellets may be use but this is not as effective as the remedy in the original Ethanol pack
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle or 5 Pellets and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.

    Please do not confuse my Website with the ABC as I prefer not to mix my therapy there with my advice here.

    I have scrolled down on this page and find that I have given you detailed instructions to help cure your GERD on March 29.

    You do not need to make a new bottle of the Arnica remedy and you will use the 500ml bottle of the remedy for about 3 months at 1 capful taken twice daily.

    You must also take the Nat Phos 6x in conjunction with the Arnica as instructed.

    My apologies for the confusion.

    I note that you have consulted me for Eczema and I presume that you are already aware of my default therapy which is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily while the remedy is also applied directly on the lesions.

    I would like to know how you responded to my therapy.

    • SHAFFA says:

      i have given him his first dose today .will report to u after a week.thanks a lot for helping me. i pray that u find success as it will help not only me and u[ur critics will be silenced] but thousands of others most of whom r kids.also i wanted to ask if the usual restrictions of homeopathy apply in case of arnica too.

      • Joe says:

        To Shaffa

        Remember to apply the remedy water from the bottle directly on his lesions as often as possible.

    You will have to give me more details of his Migraine.
    How long ago did he first get it?
    How does is start?
    Does he wake up with a migraine?
    Is it when he is exposed to bring light?

    • SHAFFA says:

      he has migraine since he was 13-14 yrs old.his father and one brother also have it.its a family problem, inherited i guess.the migraines start with an aura and usuallly comes weekly or every 10 days.very rarely he is free from it for 15 days.it usually starts when he has been hungry or without adequate sleep and other triggers.he tries to avoid them but the problem is he has a very stressful job and so it comes very frequently.he finds it difficult to fall asleep.yes he does wake up with migraines.since we live in gulf where its very hot and humid he does get migraine headaches on long or strong exposure to light.i heard abt bryonia30.but i need ur advice.if u need more details ill give them.thanks.
      an update on my son.his lesions have’nt completely gone away but the redness is gone.i think it may take more time as this eczema which he has now is not natural.he got an aggravation from calc carb.im giving him wet dose arnica twice daily.also my son wants to eat very frequently so im unable to keep him without food the half hour before and after taking his meds.he takes stuff by himself and eats it.is it possible this is causing a problem?pls advice.

    Eczema

    My experience with Eczema is that in 3 days the lesions dry up and they are cured in a week. In the case of your son, I note that there is some improvement but it has not followed the standard response parameter. Let us give it to him for 2 weeks and then decide if another remedy is indicated.

    I do not think that there is any need to strictly adhere to the time interval before a remedy is given. It is best absorbed before a meal.

    Migraine

    He can start with one dose of Bryonia 200c in the Wet dose which he will take every night before bed. Report results in a week.

  5. shaffa says:

    ill have to order this and will get in 3-4 days..ill report after starting it.also if u want him to take any other meds that u would prescribe ill order them now so i can have them on hand as and when required.

  6. SHAFFA says:

    i have got the bryonia 200c and 30 c in pellet form.ill go to the supermarket and buy spring water today and start the therapy tonight.will report progress.i think ill post my husbands case also on abc as it will be more accessible to others too.ur advice on this idea will be appreciated.

    • SHAFFA says:

      my sons eczema is showing signs of improvement. his legs are way much better.one leg is almost normal other has shown very much improvement.im applying the water and giving him arnica 6c in wet dose.his staph infection is also very much better than before.

      • Joe says:

        To Shaffa

        I would appreciate if you will please post a complete case record of your son’s recovery from Eczema under my therapy. This information will be of some use to those who suffer from Eczema which as you know already is a very difficult disease to cure.

        The statement you made here on my website is hardly sufficient to enable other patients to realize that a CURE is possible using my therapy aka “Joepathy”

        You may copy and paste the whole thread on the ABC to enable anyone to read the progress of your son/s cure.

        • SHAFFA says:

          this is the complete post i made on abc asking for help for my son.i hope somebody benefits from it for which i’ll be too happy and thankful.

          when he was born he had 5 to 6 pustules on his face.the pediatrician said they are ‘milia’.the next day[his second day of life]he was fully covered by these pustules on the face and they were very small with outer ring red in color but filled with pus.he could’nt open his eyes.i took some hot water and a tissue and wiped his eyes with it and they probably burst open and he was able to open his eyes.he was ok the whole day but when he came back to me from the nursery he had it from head to toe.i immediately alerted the dr.and he did a blood test a skin test and later told he was having a staph infection and gave him antibiotics for 5days.aafetr a week he had them again and i again rushed him to dr.who started a course of antibiotic injections for 5days followed by oral antibiotics.he was given mometasone to apply on his skin.the most horrible part was the dr asked me to break open his pustules with gauge pas and apply salt water to it.this was most horrible .but i did for 2 days only and then he was ok.by the end of his first month he developed jaundice.it lasted a month.then he was prescribed emollients and corticosteroids.nothing is working.now his eczema gets severe by each passing day.he was completely eczema free only on our last trip to indoa for 3 months.not a single flare up.soft smooth wonderful skin.dermatologist said its due to dry weather.[i live in the gulf where its too hot and dry.]we cant live without air conditioners here due to the heat.this must have caused his adenoids and tonsils prob.but now he has sleep apnea.as i write this he has woken up more than 5 times.he is unable to sleep well.a long post but i wanted to give more details so that the whole history is out there for you to evaluate.

    • Light yellow.yes.

    3. What time the itching is most?

    4. You said “he sweats more in the head”, could you please mention time when it is most?
    • He has a flaky skin on his head.he sweats more in his head during the day. Its like if I give him a head bath in the day by early evening his head smells of sweat. But his body does’nt.

      To Shaffa

      Thank you for copying the entire post you have made on the ABC Homeopathy forum on my website.

      I am confident that many other patients who suffer from Eczema will benefit from your post as it records the actual day to day therapy that I prescribed for your son during the past few weeks.

      It is my hope and prayer that he will be cured of his Eczema in the not too distant future but you will have to continue to use this therapy for him till such time as I instruct you that it will now be safe to stop it.

    mr.joe as per ur instruction here is my weekly report to u.i am really happy and would like to congratulate mr.joe.my sons one leg is lesion free,just rough right now,not completely smooth and his other leg is showing signs of improvement.i took a week to tell this as i wanted to be sure its not returning.his lesions are showing a pattern of improvement.they are starting from his waist downwards.so 1st his thighs were lesion free then his lower leg.the very badly affected leg is also showing same signs albeit slowly.those ridiculing and criticising joe should stop and take a look.if people are getting cured from one medicine why try many on them.maybe im wrong to say so early but i hate people who just criticise for the sake of criticising.instead of criticising why don’t they try it out on 3-4 patients and see for themselves ifit works or not.mr joe my husband notified me that maybe my son is catching his cold as im applying water to almost all his body[as all of it was affected ]he is cold sensitive.i sincerely hope and wish that his other leg also becomes lesion free.

    I thank God in whom both you and I believe in, that I was instrumental in helping your son’s chronic Eczema in the short space of just 6 days. I realize that it is still too early to call his present progress a cure but as long as he improves under my Joepathy, I believe that it will eventually be classified as a CURE of a Chronic and a Desperate case that has not responded to the drugs and medicine from doctors and the remedies that Mani Jee and others have prescribed.

    I have read your case from your first post on March 13 up to today and realized only now how critical his case was since he was born with some blisters over his eyes and an unusual sensitivity to the environment as you reported that during the time you were in India that he was absolutely OK. It is possible that the Air conditioner in his room may be the cause of his unusual sensitivity and I want you to clean the air filter with water and apply some disinfectant on it on the last wash. You will not use something like Dettol in the recommended solution. You can also use a brush with the same disinfectant on the Evaporator fins through which the air passes and is cooled to take out any bacteria and dust which can cause the Eczema. This is best done by the agents who can take the Squirrel cage rotor under the Evaporator coils and wash it throughly under the tap and you will be surprised to see the dirt that will be cleaned out.

    The best is however to replace the airconditioner with a new unit as it is a small price to pay for your son’s health. If you can get an Inverter Type of airconditioner it will save you 60% of the cost of power used by the normal A/c’s. I was the first person in Sri Lanka to use the Inverter Type A/c in Sri Lanka 3 years ago and my power cost dropped by 50%. I use the Panasonic brand exclusively which is made in Japan.

    Now back to your son’s Ecaema.

    I am Indeed delighted to learn of his positive progress to my therapy and am confident that your son will soon be cured. He will however have to take Arnica 6c for some months into the future and I shall indicate the method to be used in about 2 weeks to reduce the power of the liquid further. Please indicate precisely in detail for my information, the method you used to make the Wet dose and how you use it.

    I note that you have also taken Arnica 6c in the Wet dose but I believe that the 30c will be better for you. I have used it myself for the last 16 years nightly and at age 82 I am convinced that I owe to it my present state of health without any ache or pain in my body and the ability to perform as I have done during the past years.

    I do hope that others will also use it and discover how it helps them in so many ways to improve their status in life. yes sir even im happy that his skin has healed at least one leg completely.his cheeks are shiny and before they were always either dry or red with eczema.ill try to do as u said about the air conditioner it may take amonth or so but ill definitely try to get one.i do clean it with an A/C cleaner.i also forgot to mention his hands they are also completely patch free and the dryness which was troubling me a lot is not any more.im new to homeopathy ,i havent tried it before except for my elder sons tonsils 9 yrs ago but it did nothing so i was’nt hoping even this much improvement.
    i made the wet dose in the following way:i brought 2 bottles of spring water, added 3 drops of arnica 6c liquid dilution to each bottle.one bottle i kept for applying to his lesions and the other was for giving him orally twice a day.[i read this method of yours in one of the posts].i kept them at room temperature.
    what im desperately hoping is that the eczema should’nt return.lets pray and assume that it does’nt happen.
    i do believe strongly that the creator does bless some people with healing powers.u are lucky to be one of them.
    arnica 30c may arrive today so ill start taking it as im sleeping well after taking it which was’nt the case before..thanks a lot for helping us out and god bless u n ur family.
    i also intend to send some pictures of my son’s eczema before and after the therapy.
    I believe that it will be safe to state today that your son’s Eczema has responded to my therapy.

    We can only hope and pray that this improvement will continue into the future.

    I note that you are using 2 separate bottles of the remedy and make sure that you do not mix the one with the other which you use orally.

    I shall look forward to the pictures of his lesions before and after and I hope that you will post them on this thread as they will serve to be permanent records of how my Joepathy which was often derided by expert classical homeopaths, has helped the chronic Eczema of your son.
    hi,weekly update on my sons status:his left leg is healed i can say but his right leg is responding,not as much as the other one but is much better than a week or 15 days sgo.so im confident that with continous use for a period of time it will be healed.since i had been on a trip and he was exposed to various elements,his cheeks have become rough.i hope he will get well soon.also one more very important point,he had staph infections before which were very large and many in number on his body but he had it this time 3 days ago,i saw it when i landed at the place we had gone to,but they were very mild ,small and healed by themselves ,which was not the case before and had to be rushed to hospital due to severe pain and full of pus.now he had only one and it too healed quickly than the ones before.
    thanks for your precious help MR.JOE.

    I am happy to note that your son’s Eczema is responding to my Joepathy and it would be safe to state at this stage that he should get cured in a short time from now.

    I would appreciate if you will please record his progress on my website too.

    It is my hope that my detractors too will realize that my Joepathy does work in a manner that they classically generated remedies cannot emulate
    mr.joe,im very pleased to inform u that my son is progressing rapidly ,as u expected,.i thank my creator for making u the source of relief for my son.the lesions are almost all gone.u suggested earlier that it should be continued for atleast 3 months.if there is any change u want me to make,pls inform me.
    i also wanted u to know that its [arnica 6c] is not helping in the rhinitisof my son.but i have no regrets,my major problem has been solved atleast for now.
    one more thing,actually an update on my own taking of arnica 6c wet dose twice a day.i had written earlier that i had severe sleep problems since i was very young.they came and went as they wished,but after taking this,im relieved and very very happy to ssay it cured my sleeplessness.u may try this on ur other patients.i had severe difficulties falling ,and staying asleep.now i sleep like a baby and am starting to make beds earlier.im so relieved.due to being unable to sleep at night,i was exhausted and fatigued always. now its no more n im finding time to do all that i wanted to do.thanks for giving me a new kind of life.

    I am indeed delighted that your son’s Eczema has responded so very quickly to my Arnica therapy. I note that it is just about 3 weeks since I took his case and it did take longer than other patients to reach this stage perhaps due to his suffering from this ailment for so many years from his infancy.

    I am also glad that your insomnia has been helped and that you are both progressing positively to what can be classified as a cure.

    I do hope that my classical detractor located in Australia will have the opportunity of reading this thread as he used to shadow them in the past with the sole intention of criticizing them purely because my therapy did not conform to his understanding of Homeopathy. I believe that it will be safe to state that my Joepathy supersedes his classical therapy especially in the treatment of very difficult cases like your son’s Eczema.

    Continue with the therapy and report progress weekly.

      I was looking over some old posts on my website dating back to 2010 and hope that you will get the automatic email alert and read my post.

      I would like to know how your son’s chronic Eczema is today after you reported that it was cured in a week.

  9. SHAFFA says:

    yes mr.joe even i want that as many people as possible be benefitted by ur therapy.so i did as u said and copied my important points in the post on ur site.also i read in the other forums u visit of a person from saudia saying that spring water is not available but since its u who prescribe giving arnica in spring water let me inform u to help others that spring water is available here in saudia at all carrefour supermarkets in the bottled water section.hope this helps someone.and once again thanks for everything may god bless u.

  10. Khan says:

    Hi Joe,

    I’ve been giving arnica 6c wet dose twice a day both orally and on the lesion for two weeks to my daughter but not seeing much improvement. Is there anything i missed out from your therapy?

    Thanks

    Khan

    • Joe says:

      Khan

      I regret that I cannot think of any other therapy to help your daughter.

      You are advised to consult a doctor to diagnose the reason for her ailment which may give me more data to work on to prescribe a remedy.

  11. Khan says:

    Joe,

    I notice the lesion gets dry and then it comes back. I will continue with your therapy as there is no side effect. Do you think i should apply the graphite cream when it is dry?

    Thanks

    • Joe says:

      Khan

      I am presuming that your reference to the lesion is the Eczema of your daughter.
      Graphite cream may even aggravate your daughter’s Eczema and I did not prescribe it.

      Let us try another approach.

      Get a bottle of Arnica 3c in the Liquid Dilution.

      Put in 3ml or half a teaspoonful of the alcohol into a 400ml bottle of spring water.

      Apply the remedy water on the lesion as often as is possble with your fingers.

      THIS REMEDY WATER IS NOT FOR ORAL USE.
      IT MUST NOT BE DRUNK BY YOUR DAUGHTER.

      Report her response in 3 days.

  12. George says:

    Hi there, I will be trying your treatment soon for my eczema, but I was wondering how long you’re supposed to use the initial contents of the bottle for? After putting 3 drops in a bottle of water, how long is that treatment supposed to last, and should you ever start with a new bottle?

    Thanks in advance

    • Joe says:

      George

      I do not have any record of having treated you and note that you suffer from Eczema and that you have already read the therapy I have prescribed for other patients.

      There is one amendment to the therapy I have prescribed in the past and that pertains to the potency of the Arnica which I used to prescribe in the 6c potency. I have since amended it to read as 3c, based on the response of patients who have reported better results with the lower 3c potency.

      Answering your question, you will activate a bottle of spring water only ONCE with the 3 drops and you will use the medicated water right down to the bottom of the bottle.

      Please note that it is essential that you apply the medicated water on your lseions directly with your finger tips.

  13. George says:

    Oh okay, thanks for clarification. I know you’ve not treated me, but I thought I may as well give this treatment a shot and see if it pans out. I’ll start using Arnica 6c for now, as I couldn’t find a place that sold Arnica 3c in the UK (or London). If you know of any, that would be appreciated.

    Also, is the difference in effectiveness – at least for eczema – that substantial with 3c?

        I’ve been using Arnica for 7 days and have not noticed much imrovement, aside from the lesions on my arms (the only places where I have eczema, as I grew out of most of it, fortunately) drying and flaking up. Though underneath the redness and slight inflamation is still there. How much longer do yo think I should give it before stopping the use of Arnica?

        • Joe says:

          George

          Please state precisely how you have made and are using the Arnica in the Wet dose that I have prescribed.

          • George says:

            Placed three drops of arnica 6c in bottled spring water, of which I previously emptied 100ml out. Shook it very hard for about 5 times after this, and since then, have been drinking a capful in the morning and night, along with applying the arnica water to my arms, with my fingertips. The cap never comes into contact with anything, so there is no ‘throwback’. I don’t eat sausages, bacon or ham as you have mentioned on other sites, and I drink around two litres of water a day.

            If of any interest, the arnica is listed to have been diluted in 25% alcohol, and was purchased by the shop called Helios you linked to above.

            • Joe says:

              George

              I note that you have followed the protocol I prescribed precisely and you have also taken it orally correctly.

              I cannot understand the reason why your Eczema has not responded and can only conclude that my default therapy with Arnica 6c in the Wet dose is not for you.

              If you still have the patience to experiment with the 80% or better still the 97% dilution you can order it from Ainsworths in the Arnica 3c potency and hope that it will work.

              Please note that I have prescribed the lower potency of Arnica 3c in the 97% dilution in Ethanol

          • George says:

            Thanks for getting back to me. I may order the 3c and give that a try. How exactly do you think this can be more effective if the potency is far lower, or maybe I’m misunderstanding the dosage terms?

            And also, do you reckon I should continue with the 6c for another week or so? As of yet, it appears my eczema remains predominantly the same, only much more ‘flakier’, if that makes sense. How long do you think is the maximum recommended time to give Arnica, as I’m not sure if I should give it another week or so.

            Thanks in advance.

            • Joe says:

              George

              All I can state at this stage of your treatment is that the majority of patients who present Eczema have reported that in just 3 days they discovered that their chronic Eczema showed signs of drying up with positive signs of recovery.

              In your case it is possible that Arnica 6c is not your remedy while the 3c may work better. The choice is yours to either take the 6c for another week and change over to the 3c at that time. Or reject the Arnica therapy completely.

              You have asked me for an explanation of the reason why I requested you to change over but I cannot give you a precise answer as this is not possible in the treatment of a patient with a Homeopathic remedy when the lower potency can act better than the higher to heal the ailment.

              In any event Homeopathic remedies do not have any dangerous side effects on the body and cannot be compared to drugs which can affect the body by creating other side effects, some of which can be permanent.

          • George says:

            Okay then, I’ll give the 6c another week and see if there’s an improvement. You mention that predominantly, arnica results in drying up of the eczema, and I was wondering typically how long the eczema of your previous patients has taken to fully clear up, after their lesions have dried up?

            Currently, my affected areas of the skin appear quite flaky and dry/rough, while not being irritable/itchy. Is this typical of the skin’s reaction to Arnica?

            Thanks for your help.

    Hi doc Joe,
    This is yr old patient Shaista from Pakistan. I wanted to consult you about 2 little brothers in Karachi. They are children who have acute eczema with water or pus filled boils. Hospital has said their condition is due to intermarriage of parents. They have tried a week of ars album and rhus tox 30 to no avail. Would u recommend arnica and in what potency. I think 6c is much more easily available. They r poor so I will procure it and send. Please help these suffering children.
    Many thanks, Shaista

    • Joe says:

      Shaista

      I have helped many patients who presented chronic Eczema and a similar condition known as Atopic Dermatitis with my standard therapy Arnica 3c in the Wet dose and shall copy below my default therapy:

      The remedy for your Eczema is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose which is made up as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.

      Take a capful of the remedy water twice daily and also apply the water on your lesions as often as possible.

      You should observe some improvement in your condition on about the third day into this therapy.

      Please report your response on the third day.

      It is understood that you will not take any other drug while using the Arnica therapy.

      I did a search under your name Shaista and discovered that I had been treating you for Osteo Arthritis and Fibromyalgia and Obesity.

      I note that you have torn the Meniscus and this condition will not respond to my standard therapy for Arthritis as it is the torn cartilage between the knee joint that is causing you the pain which usually increases with age. The only answer is surgery preferably Arthroscopy which is far more comfortable for the patient instead of open surgery which takes ages to heal.

      I shall be interested to learn how you are progressing today and also how your son has responded to his surgery of his shoulder.

  15. Elaine smyth says:

    Hello,
    I saw on abc homeopathy.com you recommended arnica for a eczema sufferer.
    I would like to know if this method would suit my partner.
    My partner has atopic eczema and contact dermatitis. The use of steroids have left a steroid induced rosecea on his face and the rest of his body is getting itchy and inflamed a lot these days. I wonder should he try this method? He had a lot of allergies. Many foods bring him out in red blotches and extreme itchiness. Is this method safe or could he react? We have been to a local homeopath who suggested cutting onions, eggs, mint and to take probiotics and artemisia 30 – she said it had something to do with his gut and has been going on for years. He had been taking these for 5 weeks now with little or no improvement. The tablets are giving him very watery stools (we thought this may be cleaning his system)

    His skin is damaging his confidence and overall attitude. He has stopped steroids and takes antihistamines daily and antidepressants.
    Should I go with the arnica? Or is there anything you can suggest?
    I hate seeing him like this and it has meant a few weeks he couldn’t work because of it and with a new baby we need the money.
    Thanks
    Elaine

    Thanks for the response.
    He is taking antidepressants and antihistamines daily which he needs – he seems to get very angry and irritable without his antidepressants and without his antihistamines he tends to rash a bit more when in contact with dust etc which his job involves. He also was told to take probiotics and artimesia 30 by a homeopath. Should he stop all these? Without shopping will the remedy not work?
    Thanks again,

      You will have to decide on whether or not you wish to use my therapy for your husband.

      If you do decide to use mine, you will have to abide by my rules which are time tested and have yielded results.

      The reason is that mine cannot work when you are using drugs. You must understand that Homeopathy is a far cry from drugs and in fact is the complete opposite as the doses are infinitesimally minute. They are antidoted by all drugs.

      You can add Nat Mur 6x for his Depressive attitude if you feel that this too should be taken care of.

  17. Elaine smyth says:

    Dr Joe,

    Yes he wants to get away from antidepressants.
    I understand and will go by your remedy. Will the arnica help with allergic reactions for what he was taking the antihistamines for? He also has athsma – will the arnica help the athsma. His breathing gets worse with activity and at night and uses an inhailor for this. Can he use moisturisers on his skin with this remedy? I also read somewhere on a post about avoiding cured meats, is this right?

      You are fortunate that you informed me that he suffers from Asthma and uses an inhaler for his ailment. This changes the therapy that he should be prescribed. It is most likely that it is the inhaler used for Asthma that is the root cause of his Eczema and his Depression
      and we will have to decide which of the two ailments, Asthma or Eczema are the more pressing to be treated first.

      The 2 remedies can conflict with each other and cannot be used together.

      I shall await your response to advise you further.

  18. Elaine smyth says:

    Dr Joe,

    He had chronic eczema from a baby at 14 weeks and the athsma came later and was then diagnosed as having atopic ezcema. His ezcema was chronic up untill his teenage years where he only had slight patches of ezcema if any. It then came back badly when he was 19 and since then had been controlled with steroids.
    The main issue for him is his skin. However I am
    Worried that while starting arnica treatment for his skin he will have an athsma attach and have to use his inhailor which would ruin the therapy.
    Does the arnica help athsma? Could he have an athsma attach whilst on the arnica treatment?
    Obviously we would love to rid the two problems but the eczema is the first thing people see that’s why it bothers him so much.
    I will add that he works in a dusty environment on a daily basis which causes him to use his inhailor more during work.
    What would be your advise? When his skin gets worse or has a flare up the athsma seems to get worse too.

      It is rare to have a patient who presents both Asthma and Eczema at the same time. My experience is that it is usual for Asthma to be the chief ailment while Eczema presents later usually after the Asthma is cured.

      I have already prescribed for Asthma for which he is using inhalers as a matter of routine without considering the real DANGER that he is exposing himself to, as it is obvious that he cannot spend his life wedded to a Steroid Inhaler.

      All I can do is to advice. I cannot enforce the therapy.

      And why are you, the mother of the patient who is an adult and obviously able to write for himself on my website, relaying his problems to me.

      Please request your son to do so himself.

      Where do you live?

    Dr Joe,

    I am in the uk, northern ireland. I have read another one of your treatment pages of athsma where you are also treating a patient in the uk who also has athsma and ezcema. I dont know about other countries but this a common thing over here and is called ATOPIC ezcema when both ezcema, athsma and allergies are present together.

    Elaine is not my mother but my partner. She was replying on my behalf as I work a lot of hours and can’t reply as prompt as she could. Although over the weekend It’s okay.
    I would like your advice on what treatment to start first.
    My skin is the worst at the minute but I am very much dependant on my inhailor. If I treat my skin first and I desperately need my inhailor and take it, will this ruin the treatment? That’s my worry.
    My skin needs sorted as where I work it is very dusty so when I return to work with already flared skin it gets worse and worse.
    You mentioned on your posts of your default remedy for eczema arnica 6c and then arnica 3c which one is it remedy?
    The uk helios store only does the arnica 6c.
    Thank you for your help,
    Ross

      Ross Gilmer

      OK Ross, I do understand.

      I have done this before but my last patient with both ailments did not respond well.

      Let us however try to treat both symptoms in your case and in the event that your Asthma does not respond we will be compelled to stop the Arnica.

      I have already prescribed for your Asthma which I am convinced is the root cause of your Eczema caused by the INHALERS that you use and depend on to survive. You will of course NOT use any inhalers and you will use the Ars Alb 200 in the Wet dose instead, if you cannot breathe.

      You must also observe the instructions on steaming and physiotherapy as often as is possible. The idea is to drain out the pus in your lungs and hope that the combination therapy will help you.

      You can use the Arnica 6c as you cannot get the 3c in the Wet dose and you will take it orally twice daily and apply it topically on your lesions as often as is possible throughout the day.

      You will not of course use any inhalers or creams when you start on my therapy and you can START RIGHT AWAY as you will be at home over the weekend.

  23. May I just say what a comfort to discover an individual who really knows what they’re talking about online. You definitely know how to bring a problem to light and make it important. More and more people ought to check this out and understand this side of the story. I was surprised you aren’t
    more popular because you certainly have the gift.

  24. Steve says:

    Hi Joe,

    I have been an eczema sufferer for over 29 years now, I am looking at anyway possible to help easy the pain I go through (especially on my hands). I am looking at doing your wet dose treatment ASAP. I just dont know what sort of Arnica 6c to buy. This is the website I’m going to buy it from as I live in the UK http://www.helios.co.uk/ place could you advise me?

    Thanks Steve

    • Joe says:

      Steve

      I saw your email coming in just 5 minutes ago and am glad that you located me after suffering for the last 29 years so very unnecessarily from Eczema. I hasten to copy my default therapy which will hopefully help your Eczema hopefully within a week. Many patients have confirmed a CURE in about a month. You will use it till I am satisfied that you are CURED.

      You can source your Arnica 6c in Alcohol from Helios or any other vendor in London.

      I shall copy below my default therapy for Eczema which has helped the lesions of many chronic cases to dry up in a few days.

      The remedy for your Eczema is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose which is made up as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.

      Sip a capful of the remedy water twice daily and also apply the water directly on your lesions as often as possible to keep them damp. This accelerates healing.

      You should observe some improvement in your condition on about the third day into this therapy.

      Please report your response on the third day.

      It is understood that you will not take any other drug while using the Arnica therapy.

      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

  25. Steve says:

    Hi Joe,

    Thank you for getting back to me right away. As a child my eczema was very bad and my mother worked miracles with the creams provided from the doctors and kept me out of hospital. Coming into my teen years we hoped and prayed that I would grow out of it but that hasn’t been the case. Around 6 years ago (after my first son was born) my hand eczema became really bad. Now I have been suffering with this for too long and it really gets me down as well as stopping me from doing general everyday tasks. I really do hope that your Arnica 6c wet does is my answer as nothing else has worked.

    I will let you know how I get on once I have ordered the Arnica 6c Alcohol from Helios.

    I have contacted them and they tell me that they have Arnica 6c is 23% alcohol. Is this enough?

    Thanks Steve

    • Joe says:

      Steve

      I prefer the remedy with a higher content of Alcohol but if you cannot get the 80% product the 23% will do.

      I do not know if I have prescribed my therapy for Eczema and am copying it below for the record:

      • Steve says:

        Hi Joe,

        Only just getting round to ordering the Arnica 6c. I’ve ordered the Arnica Montana (6C) in 96% Alcohol from Ainsworths. Is this the correct one?

        Thanks Steve

        • Joe says:

          I prefer not to be addressed as “Joe” except by my peers and close friends, as in my country Sri Lanka, there is a certain modicum of respect reserved for age. I am 85 years old.

          You can order the higher potency of Arnica M.

  26. Steve says:

    I do apologise. What is the best way to address you?

    Right I’ve finally started the Arnica 6c Wet does treatment. I’m currently on the start of day 3. I have taken a cap full each morning and night and also have been applying it to my lesions on my hand and a few patches over my body/face.
    The major improvement I have noticed is that it has helped my lesions on my hand (drying them out). This is great and at present my hand is around 85% back to normal (however this could just be a good cycle that my eczema normally takes). The only problem I am finding (on my hand, body and face) is that its really drying out my skin. This is causing discomfort and making me itch more.

    Do you recommend I keep applying the wet does to all areas of my body? Also should I be apply my normal moisturising cream to help the dryness (Aveeno)?

    One other thing I have noticed (as you have mentioned before) is sleeping. I feel I am getting a good deep sleep now. However after taking the does in the morning I am feeling pretty tired until the afternoon. Is this normal?
    When I made the wet does a little more than 3 drops may have gone in as I didn’t expect it to come out of the bottle so fast (maybe 5/6 drops). I am however going to make a new batch tonight.

    Fingers crossed this will work out for me.

    Your thoughts and advice on what I have experienced so far would get greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks Steve

    • Joe says:

      Glad to learn that you have already seen some improvement in just 3 DAYS. This is not unusual as many patients, some of whom had suffered from Eczema for almost a lifetime discovered also in 3 days that their lesions were drying up like yours. You estimated your improvement at 85% and this improvement is not to be confused with any previous similar events as this time they will be PERMANENT. I note that you are experiencing some discomfort and you will have to put up with it as it is only temporary. Do NOT use any cream as this will hinder a CURE of your Eczema.

      I have instructed you to SPRAY the remedy water over all your lesions and I hope that you are not applying the water by hand.

      Arnica will promote sleep and I am glad that you too have experienced this bliss. I hope that you are aware that no other drug or tonic will equal Arnica which I consider a Miracle Remedy.

      • Steve says:

        I’m now on the start of day 5 now and i just don’t think this is going to be my miracle cure 🙁
        I have been taking the wet dose (cap full) morning and night and although its helped in sleeping and me feeling a little better it doesn’t seem to be helping my eczema. On the start of day 3 my hand eczema was almost gone (85-90% improvement).
        Then on day 4 it came back and really bad. I have lesions all over my hand and its extremely dry now.
        I did buy a spray bottle to apply the wet dose on my hand every 30mins, this seems to have only made my hand dryer and more painful.
        Also I have dry red itchy patches all over my body now and they are showing no signs of getting better.

        Is there anything I’m doing wrong??? The first batch I made up (that seemed to clear the hand eczema) was about 5/6 drops, do you think I need more drops? Please help Dr De Livera.

        I do have some pictures I can email you if this is possible?

        Thanks Steve

        • Joe says:

          I am concerned to learn that the Arnica 6 you are using is not helping you although it did help you for 3 days. This reaction is not usual and it is possible that this reaction was due to your body over reacting to the Arnica.

          The answer to this problem is to STOP it for the moment and this includes spraying it on the skin. It is possible that the 5/6 drops you used in making the Wet dose may be an overdose and I would suggest that you make another bottle by emptying it completely and just refilling it with boiled and cooled tap water. The remedy will linger on in the droplets in the bottle and will hopefully give you the attenuated dosage which heal your lesions.

          This will hopefully enable your skin to recover and you will report the result in 24 hours.

  27. Steve says:

    I do have a few more 500ml spring water (unopened) so I will make up a new batch tonight, Making sure I only put 3 drops in.
    How long shall I leave off taking the next cap full and spraying it on my lesions?

    Also at present I’m doing a lot of exercise (bike training) this gets me very hot and sweaty which isn’t helping the dry, red itchy patches over my body. I was hoping that the Arnica wet dose would help/cure me from this.

    Do you want me to send you the pictures?

    Thanks for your help and advice.

    • Joe says:

      Yes do send me the pictures to my email address.

      Please follow my instructions contained in my last post literally.
      Empty the bottles and just replace the water to make a very dilute solution which will hopefully help you.
      Do not use the Arnica for 48 hours and start the protocol again.

      • Steve says:

        Ok, I’ll do it this way. Thank you again for your help on this.

        I cant seem to find your email address on the website.

    Dear Dr. Joe,

    I have being reading your Joepathy forum for a while now. Through it, I came across Berberis-6C in wet dose for the treatment of renal calculi. My mother is actually having a kidney stone of 11×9 mm and she was having some pain. The allopathy doctor suggested to go for laser therapy to break the stone into small pieces OR let the status quo until she has acute pain.

    That motivated me to get your line of treatment and my mother has started the medicine of Berb 6c in wet dose. It seems that things are somewhat good to her and I will report to you her ultrasound report as soon as we get it done.

    Dr. Joe, I want to take your help and suggestions further in getting the treatment of eczema of my nephew. I have read several posts claiming the Arnica 6c in wet dose can cure Eczema.

    My nephew is based in Reading UK where the temperature is pretty cold. He has earlier been diagnosed with milk, egg, soya, dust mites allergy. Acidic fruits (strawberry, berries, oranges) are restricted not allergic. He is about 2.5 years of age now. The baby has developed severe eczema on face, genitals and all over his body now. I have attached his recent pics in your gmail id for your references. His condition improves only after applying steroid cream ( Epaderm and dermol) for 2-3 days continuously and giving anti histamine- Priton syrup.

    In this reference, we have given him Dr. Reckeweg R83. Food- Allergy Drops, Dr. Reckeweg R23 Eczema Drops and Reckeweg Sulphur but unfortunately these are not helping him much.

    Should we start the dosage of Arnica 6c in wet dose or you will recommend some other medicine in this case.

    Looking forward to your help and early revert.

    With best regards
    Rahul Mukerjee
    India.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have studied the protocol I prescribe to expel Kidney Stones or Renal Calculi and that your mother is already on Berberis V 6c and has already shown some relief. For the record I shall copy my default therapy which I have prescribed to over a hundred patients the majority of whom were saved any surgery which in any case provides only temporary relief as these Calculi have a habit of recurring due to the formation of new stones, which my therapy seems to prevent. Please note that you will have to keep Colocynthis 200 handy to be used to ease the passage of the stone down the Ureter into the Bladder for subsequent expulsion which in the case of a woman is not an event, although in the case of men, it is an excruciating experience.

      The remedy to help dissolve a Kidney Stone is:

      Berberis Vulgaris 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily to dissolve the stone. You will take this for some weeks or even months till you feel an increase in your pain level which will indicate that the stone is dissolved and is ready to be passed down the Ureter.

      You will then take Colocynthis 200 in the Wet dose every hour to relax the Ureter to enable the stone to pass down into the bladder. Please note that you will only take the Colocynthis 200 only when you feel the increase of your pain which will indicate that the stone is dissolved and is ready for passing down the Ureter into the Bladder.
      pa
      You will also take Arnica 30c twice daily in the Wet dose as this too helps the body to expel the stone.
      Leave half hour between remedies.

      Please visit the link below “How Joepathy expelled another Kidney Stone”

      http://www.joedelivera.com/?p=295

      You will drink at least 3-4 liters of water daily to help in dissolving the stone and flushing it down. The water will also prevent the formation of new stones.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

      The other case of your baby nephew is of interest as it is the first I have encountered of a 2.5 year old presenting Eczema. As a result I am not certain of the dosage of the standard remedy I prescribe, Arnica 6c in the Wet dose to be given in a Baby Dosage. The adult dosage, as you may have read is a teaspoonful twice daily and I suppose that this same dosage can be used for baby with application of the remedy on all the lesions on the body wherever you see any red irritation. The photographs you referred to did not arrive by email.

      I shall copy below my default therapy for Eczema which has helped the lesions of many chronic cases to dry up in a few days.

      The remedy for your Eczema is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose which is made up as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a small teaspoonful (about 5ml) is given orally.

      Sip a teaspoonful of the remedy water twice daily and also apply the water directly on your lesions as often as possible to keep them damp. This accelerates healing. It is recommended that a spray bottle is used to dispense the liquid remedy on the lesions instead of using cotton wool which may further irritate the lesions.

      You should observe some improvement in your condition on about the third day into this therapy.

      Please report your response on the third day.

      It is understood that you will not take any other drug while using the Arnica therapy.

      • Rahul says:

        Dear Joe

        As you have prescribed, we bought Arnica 6c in wet dose from Helios, UK. I am reporting you baby’s condition after giving 3 days dosage. His redness on face has increased considerably with no improvement in drying. We are able to give him wet oral dosage but could not apply much of the remedy on his lesion since he is feeling uncomfortable and swipes out his face and starts crying.
        I am posting his photos “before and after” taking remedy for your reference on email: joedelivera@nullgmail.com; joedelivera@gmail.com

              You seem to have followed my therapy as prescribed but you have used 4 drops against the 3 drops I suggested.

              I have not had any reports of Arnica aggravating any rash up to now and cannot believe that your baby will be the first to break this record.

              Reduce your dosage to just ONE drop in the bottle of water and report results.

    Thank you for your help.

    • Joe says:

      Do I understand that your baby who suffers from Baby GERD also suffers from Eczema?
      If so, when did you first notice the Eczema?
      Can you send me a photograph of his lesions?

      How did baby respond to my therapy so far?

      • Julie says:

        Yes that is correct. My baby has had dry skin from birth, but I believe the lesions got bad around 3 months.

        We tried Combudoron ointment (http://www.weleda.co.uk/first-aid/combudoron-ointment-25g/invt/205008) on the lesions. This brought down the inflammation and thinned out the dry patches significantly, however he is not 100% yet. The ointment seems to have lost its effect, or perhaps it can’t bring his skin to normal baby skin.

        I would love to send you some photos, but I’m having trouble finding your email address?

        Unfortunately I have been unable to locate Nat Phos 6x yet. It was sold out at my local health food store. I will be ordering it online.

    Good day Dr De Livera,

    My daughter is 2 months and two weeks old and was diagnosed with eczema at her 2 month check up.

    Her symptoms started when she was about 6 weeks old. They were rash like, red and itchy as she always seems to be scratching her face. Her face appears leathery and dry.

    I have not accepted any treatment for her yet. I only apply coconut oil to soothe and moisturise the flare ups.

    i came across ur recommended arnica treatment but please can you let me know if it is an appropriate treatment dose for a 2-3 month old. if its not, what is a more suitable treatment for a child that young. thank you in advance Dr.

    • Joe says:

      The remedy I prescribe for babies who present Eczema is
      Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
      See instructions below to make the Wet dose.

      You will give baby just 6-8 DROPS of the remedy orally twice daily.

      It is also necessary that another bottle of the remedy is made to spray on baby’s lesions as often as is possible. If spraying is not convenient the remedy water can be applied by hand using a damp wad of cotton which is discarded after use.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.

        Thank you Dr for your prompt response. i am trying to order arnica 6c from the homeopathyworks website i saw you recommended for a previous commenter but please i would like some clarifications:

        I went to the product list for single remedies and went to the dilutions:

        What i see is Arnica Montana and Arnica Montana (Radix). Please which of these do i need?

        They have two alcohol concentrations 20% and 87%; which do i need please.

        Also my baby has Gerd. Would it be easier for me to describe that here in the same post as the eczema or would you rather i post in the gerd page? I had intended to post on that separately but on second thoughts i thought to mention it to you together so that i avoid contraditing treatments if there is such a thing in homeopathy.

        Thanks again Doctor. I appreciate your willingness to help.

        • Joe says:

          You have made my task doubly difficult by not including your baby’s GERD for which I shall copy my default therapy below:

          I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

          The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

          You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

          You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

          You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

          It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
          Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

          Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

          You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

          If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

          You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

          You need the Arnica Montana 6c in the 87% alcohol base.

              How can an innocent infant be exposed to these dangerous chemicals and viruses where are pumped into her tiny body on the basis that they will “protect” her from infection when she is still being breast fed at home by her mother where the chances of her catching any one of those bugs do not exist?

              This is the CURSE of medicine today. It all revolves on money where BIG PHARMA poisons a baby knowing that the shots can cause other serious problems which can then be treated by other drugs, all of which mean more revenue.

              You may like to know that I am 86 years old and have not taken any drugs since 2008 when I was in surgery. I do still drive to office daily in Colombo where I live.

              It is my hope that you will take my advice and resist all pressure to continue to poison her with any more vaccines till she is over 2 years of age.

              Please remember that the MMR Vaccine MUST be given in 3 separate injections and NOT in one cocktail as the results are dire.

                Dear Doctor De Livera.
                Thank you for the advise. I will hold off on the remaining vaccines.

                Regarding the treatments you prescribed for my two month old (acid reflux and eczema), i have only been able to get hold of nat phos 6x from the health food store. i am yet to get the arnica 6c shipped out to me.

                Below is the 48hr report using Nat phos 6x for acid reflux. i thoroughly recorded everything i possibly could so we can figure out if her trend of reaction requires extra treatment or if we should wait it out for a few more days. please advise accordingly.

                wherever i mention 1 dose it implies the two (halves)- half before and half after meals

                we started on:
                fri 3 june 10:30pm 1 dose ( 2 half tabs) no spit up and slept for 7hrs thru the night

                sat 4 june 9:30am 1 dose ( looked calm since waking up at 7:30am but spit up once)
                12:30pm 1 dose (no spit up)
                4:30pm 1 dose (no spit up)
                8:00pm 1 dose (spit up couple of times)

                next 24hrs
                sun 5th june 3:15 am 1 dose ( threw up more than 5 times)
                7:20am no dose (no throwing up)
                10:52am 1 dose ( threw up four times)
                3:00pm 1 dose (threw up twice)
                7:30pm no dose (threw up once)
                10pm 1 dose ( threw up once)

                the spit up/vomit usually takes one of three forms:
                1. curdled like yoghurt;
                2. liquid consistency of the breastmilk as tho it never evn got to her stomach
                3. mucuosy/slimy cloudy projectile vomit.

                apart from the three times she looked calm after her meal, almost always she is uneasy with her hands tugging at her chest prior to the spit ups. and once she throws up she has big smiles of relief.

                please advise as to next steps.

                • Joe says:

                  Robinia Pseudacacacia 6c in the Wet dose is the remedy I would normally prescribe to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x for a baby over 3 months of age to reduce the flow of acid into the stomach which is the problem that your own baby is suffering from.

                  I would not hesitate to prescribe it for an older baby but I have not treated one so young as I do not know what dosage I should prescribe.

                  Let us experiment with just 4 DROPS of the remedy made as per instructions below and give it twice daily.

                  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

                  Get this remedy in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
                  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
                  Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

                  You will stop the Robinia P as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

                  Report progress in 48 hours.

    Hello Dr. Joe De Livera,
    I have a 15.5 month son who seems to be suffering from eczema. I use the word seem because although there is nothing visible (no redness or rash) he always feels itchy and is constantly scratching himself mainly on his shoulders, arms and legs.  His Dr and dermatologist say it’s eczema and prescribed steroid creams, which don’t work and I don’t feel comfortable using. I do use Benedryl cream once in a while when he is very irritated by it, and that helps more than the steroid cream. A little history-he was born a week late and had a little jaundice for which the dr used light therapy.  I noticed his back had red blotches and the Dr’s realized the light may be burning his skin. I realized then that he might have sensitive skin. He was a good sleeper as a newborn, slept for 5-6 hours straight sometimes, although he was a terrible napper. However he rarely cried and was a calm baby. That all changed when he was 4-5 months old and had typical signs of eczema esp in his diaper area (rash and redness, itching and scratching). He was exclusive breastfed and so I realized maybe when I ate oats he would be more irritated. I stopped that. Eventually he was getting better but his sleep( day and night) was so unpredictable, constantly waking up or simply not sleeping at all and very fussy. Fast forward to when he turned a year I noticed he would get dry slight red patches of skin whenever I ate nuts. So I understood that me eat I eating nuts brought his eczema back. I stopped eating those as well. But since then the itching has not stopped even though the red patches have gone away. He does not sleep well at all even though he is almost 16m old, waking up every 1-2 hours every single night. He has weaned himself from my breast milk a couple days ago so I’m only feeding him once at night at this point.
    He is quite fussy and I’m certain it’s because of the itching, his lack of proper sleep, and teething  (he only has 2.5 teeth as of now, very slow teether). I can deal with the fussiness by entertaining him, however he desperately needs sleep. And I do too. Him not sleeping has put a toll on my own health and even my marriage and my relationship with my 6 year old. I apologize for the long post but I wanted to be detailed so you could understand the situation. Currently I am giving him probiotics (L. Reuteri) and vit D3 drops. Please help me. What do you think the itching is? Besides eczema could it be anything else? Please tell me what the remedy would be for his problem and for sleep as well. Another thing I should mention is that he has partial agenesis of the corpus callosum and septum pelucidum  (diagnosed in utero and then confirmed via MRI at 1 day old). I mention this just in case it makes a difference when prescribing a remedy for him. Thankfully he doesn’t show any symptoms of the abnormality (he is reaching milestones, everything is appropriate for his age) and he was also diagnosed as having microcephaly by his Ped, but nothing that is too concerning besides his head size being a little small. Thank you so much for reading this and I hope you hear from you soon.

    • Joe says:

      I checked “partial agenesis of the corpus callosum” as I had not read about it in the past and we can only hope and pray that your baby will be normal.

      I am glad that you located my Website as at my advanced age of 87, it gives me joy to help difficult cases like your Baby’s Eczema for which a pediatrician will only prescribe the standard steroidal drugs and creams.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Eczema which I hope can help him. Since he is 16 months old you will reduce the dosage prescribed to half. The spray can be done as prescribed but you will not keep the area sprayed dampened by covering it with any cloth. The idea is to spray the remedy water and let it dry up and you will spray it about 4 times daily.

      The remedy that has helped many is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily orally, and also applied directly on the lesions as often as is possible, to keep the lesions damp. The use of a spray device in which the medicated water can be stored and be sprayed on the acne lesions is best. You will make another bottle for oral use.

      It is essential that the patient continues to take just ONE dose of Arnica 6c nightly just before bed for at least 6 months after the problem has been resolved as there is every chance that the lesions can return otherwise.

      You will not take any drugs when you start my therapy.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in a 5ml Alcohol pack aka Liquid Dilution in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.

      Please post your Baby’s response to the Arnica therapy in a week.

  32. sobiaykhan says:

    Dr. Joe, thanks so much for your attention. Just a couple questions-
    1. I see that there is a 20% and 87% alcohol. Which one should I order?
    2. Considering there are no lesions (just the intense itching) would it be ok to just apply the general areas I “assume” are bothering him? i.e. his whole arm, shoulder etc
    3. Do I store the bottle that contains the 3 drops of arnica liquid dilution in the fridge or room temperature?
    4. How long is this one bottle ok to use for? For example, should I make a new bottle after a week (or any other time period)
    Thank you for your help.

    • Joe says:

      The problem I have is that I have not treated a baby for Eczema and am experimenting with the dosage.

      You can get the 20% alcohol pack of Arnica 6c and you will use 6 drops in 500ml water which you will spray on his affected area every 3 hours.

      You will NOT for the moment, give the dose orally as I prefer to be conservative in treating him.

      You do not have to refrigerate the water but it must be Spring water
      You will use the whole bottle to the last drop.

      Keep me posted with his response.

      • Sobia Khan says:

        I am searching for the arnica 6c 20% liquid dilution and will report to you after using it for a well or so.  

        I wanted to ask you-  I spoke to someone who recommends an “ECZEMA HIVES” homeopathic remedy that he claims is safe for babies and he has seen babies and adults cured,  but I wanted to ask you for your opinion. I will tell you the ingredients,  so please let me know how you feel about this treatment:

        Calcarea fluor 6x
        Cal sulf 6x
        Kal sulf 3x
        Arsen A 30x
        Natrum sulf 3x
        Rhus Tox 30x

        This is what the bottle says, I am certain you understand the abbreviated names of the actual ingredients.  He said to give it to my son 1 tab 3x a day. 

        I am in no way undermining your suggesting for arnica 6c, however I came across this and wanted your trusted opinion. Please do not mind. This can be bought and started today, as the store is right near me here in New York. Otherwise I have to wait at least a week to get the arnica (I have spoken to the seller and she said it takes at least 1 week).

        I really appreciate your time and attention as I am desperate for a normal life of sleep for my baby and me.  It’s taking a toll on us as a family. 

        Thank you so much and hope to hear from you soon. 

        • Joe says:

          You will have to make up your mind about whose therapy you wish to follow.
          The 6 Biochemic Cell Salts are a shot in the dark and will not cure Eczema.
          They can also be considered as dangerous for a baby as they are the most powerful potencies of these remedies and are not indicated for Eczema.

          My prescription will CURE Eczema and you can read the accounts of patients some of whom have suffered for up to 75 years whom I have cured, on my Website.

          You live in New York and I am surprised that you have not been able to get Arnica 6c in the Liquid Dilution up now. You can look for the standard Pellets which you can use till you get the Liquid pack. 6 pellets to activate 500ml water.

          • Sobia Khan says:

            Ive called about 5-6 stores to ask about the liquid dilution and no one has so i have to order it online. Can I just use the pellets or I should still get the liquid dilution ? Pellets are much easier to buy from the store. What’s the main difference between the pellets and dilution?

            • Joe says:

              You may use the pellets to make the remedy for spraying on his lesions and observe how he responds.

              The Liquid dilution is far more effective and it is very likely that you may not require it as I feel that the pellets will help him.

          • Sobia Khan says:

            I will get the pellets and not the liquid dilution. So I will add 6 pellets to 500ml water, Shake it hard a couple times and only spray it on his itchy areas. Even with the pellet solution, he is not to ingest it, correct? I just want to make sure. Thank you.

            • Sobia Khan says:

              Hello Dr. Joe,
              I have been using the pellet solution on my son but I have a few questions-
              1. He does not like being sprayed at all. I don’t know if it’s cold water he’s not liking, or if the water stings his itchy areas, but he cries and doesn’t let me spray him. Could I put some solution on a cotton pad or my clean fingers and Dab it on him?
              2. After the solution is on him do I wait for it to dry before dressing him? If I dress him when the solution is still wet, it’d definitely possible the clothing will absorb some of it. It does take a couple minutes for it to dry up, which I would have to take into account when preparing to go somewhere.
              3. Am I still to use cream on him? Not a steroid (I know the horrible side effects so I avoid steriods), but a heavy barrier cream (Vanicream). It just helps to moisturize the areas but doesn’t stop the itching.
              Thanks again for your attention

              • Joe says:

                There is absolutely no possibility of the solution stinging his lesions as it is just water. You can use distilled water to be certain that it is not acidic.

                It will be necessary to give him about 10 drops of the remedy on his tongue as the spray does not seem to be sufficient.

                Absolutely NO CREAM.

                • Sobia Khan says:

                  Hello Dr. Joe,
                  I have been giving my son the solution but there is no change. Still itchy and uncomfortable. Please let me know what the next step is. Thank you

                  • Joe says:

                    “. Please let me know what the next step is.”

                    I regret to inform you that there is none.

                    • Sobia Khan says:

                      Can we take one pellet by mouth and observe what happens? Is it worth a try (if it is not dangerous in any way whatsoever)?

                    • Joe says:

                      I do not think that there can be any aggravation of baby’s lesions after taking a pellet of Arnica 6c.
                      It is NOT dangerous at all.
                      It may hopefully help to treat baby’s Eczema.

                      Keep me advised of his response.
