A Case of Long-standing Atopic Skin Successfully Treated through Constitutional Homeopathy at Dr Batra’s

Abstract

A 17-year-old girl, residing in Qatar, presented with a 4–5 year history of chronic perioral dermatitis associated with dry, cracked, and bleeding skin around the mouth, extending to the neck and upper chest. Multiple topical steroid creams had given temporary relief. The condition worsened after an episode of conjunctivitis treated with allopathic medicines, leading to severe flare-up. A detailed constitutional homeopathic approach focusing on her physical generals, temperament, and stress-handling pattern led to complete and sustained remission within 12 months, with no recurrence for over 8 months even under climatic stress
