contact dermatitis

[Guest guest]

Hi all.

 

I got a bad case of contact dertmatitis from using a product on my arms and

legs. I mean really bad. I went to a walk in medical and they said the

only thing they could do was give me an oral steriod to control the

inflammation and that I should just put cortisone cream on it.

 

Because I am in such pain I am doing it but I am also putting Aveeno

collidal oatmeal mixed with yogurt as cold pack on my arms whenever I am

home and taking a nice bath with Aveeno collidal oatmean and a pitta cooling

oil. This really does help to reduce the redness and itching of my arms and

legs so that I can sleep. I am also taking my daily tea with the dried

herbs and powders of Dashamula, Punarnava and Brahmi as well as my nightly

triphala drink.

 

Is there anything thing that someone on this list can recommend that I do to

help counter the bad affects of the steriod medication that I am taking.

Any ideas or recommendations that you can give would be very helpful at this

time.

 

Thank you.

Dear Sophia,

 

Here is the precription for your problem.

 

 

1)Chandanadi tailam+Nalpamaradi tailam in equal ratio.

 

apply to the body and gently massage and keep for 1/2 an hour the have a

bath.Use green gram dal powder in place of soap.

 

2)Maha manjistadi quath.

 

30 ml with equal water 2 times daily 1 hr after food

 

3)Guggulu tiktaka kashayam

 

15 ml mixed with 45 ml of boiled and cooled water 2 times daily 1 hr before

break ast and dinner.

In case you have constipation use

Manibhadra leham 1 spoon at bed time.

 

Continue these medicines till you get relief.....

 

Mean while you need to discontinue oral steroid gradually(in a tappering

dosage)...

and avoid all other external applications..
