Eczema

[Guest guest]

Dear colleagues,

I would like to know your opinion so I present case study here.

 

Girl, 27 years, student of University

5 years ago she found an eczema on legs,knees and hands.

Localisation: inner side of knees, inner side of shank (the major part

eczema), little bit on inner side of wrist.

The color is red (or pink), rough surface, scaly.

In winter it is getting worse, in summer it is better, sun or sheer dress

makes it better.

It is very dry eczema and She suffers from an itching very much, sometimes

she is not able to controll it (scratching).

In the evening is getting worse, in the morning it is good.

Shower is the worst, because it dries her skin, she cannot use soap also

 

 

In previous two years she had a problems with kidney and ovary( an operation

for adhesion). She was also treated by corticosteroid ointment (eczema). It

dissapeared for some time, later again appeared.

 

 

Some remarks:

She likes chocolate, and spicy meals, but she does not eat them excessively.

She is busy (school and work) sometimes she get into stress.

Her constitution is robust (but not obesity).

Her mother had not breastfeeded her enough time in the childhood (lack of

milk)

Her legs, when sits longer swell up, her skin on legs she feels tight. When

she walks, it is ok.

She found some varicose vains.

 

 

 

I would appreciate any opinion:

 

diagnosis

dietary therapy

herbs (wan)

acupuncture

assumption of duration of treatment and prognosis (Is anyone succesfull with

treating of eczemas?)

Similar case study (send or link for interesting informations).

etc.

 

 

 

Thanks
