On further conversation it was clear that Silicea was also not the best indicated medicines for her as her photographs showed pus filled papules which seems to burst easily and suppurates very easily while Silicea does not have such speed of suppuration. The patient also got self educated on various homoeopathic medicines used for acne and noted Silicea was quite similar to her problems, but not helped and the other medicines she thought to indicated to her Heper Sulph, which I was not considering as I had an impression of a very gentle soft speaking mannered female while Heper Sulph patient is quite irritable and fussy.

Be Treated For Migraine, Eczema, Dengue, Acne, Asthma, ect. in Less Than 15 Rupees

After reading this one would say it is a fake or impossible, but is possible and frequently happening in all over the world, but mainly in India.

It is carriing out by a number of homoeopathic doctors and experienced persons in homoeopathy including me.

Yes, I am telling about homoeopathy, an alternative method of treatment . I got cured myself when I got Dengue fever after visiting Delhi at the cost of 10 Rupees.

Why cost is so much less you would be thinking it is simply because in homoeopathy minimum medicines are required if given rightly.

Why minimum: It is because homoeopathy does cure the patient alone, but it is the inner power of person that helps in curing the patient. Homoeopathic only guides the body to throw away from the body.

All other mainstay systems of medicine have side effects including Ayurvedic as many of Ayurvedic medications have heavy metals and large amount of crude drugs. Homoeopathy is safe because its minimum amount of crude drug. It is so small that many peoples wonders and claims it can cure anything, i.e. some medicine may be just 1 drop of crude drug is mixed in a pond and from this pond the patient have to take a few drops.

You would say that the consultation fee of a homeopath ranges 25-1000 Rupees then how one can get cured within less than 15 rupees then I would say that with the help of internet.

There are few very good homoeopathic sites where you can find an open consultation i.e., many homoeopathic doctor or qualified persons would be watching your case and would interrupt whenever needed.

For your help I would be placing a link of a custom search engine, which is also present in my blog, which you can find by clicking for better health. By searching in this search engine you would search from only nice homoeopathic sites.

You can treat yourself or any others with the help of such sites also within the cost of Just 15 rupees or just rather extra, but never significantly much if treated homeopathically.

Kent's Homoeopathic Rubrics For Acne Treatment

Acne, comedones, pimples, papules, pustules, and tubercles From Kent Homoeopathic Repertory

In acne usually skin of face is affected. There are many homoeopathic medicines, which are very effective successfully used for skin eruption of face. They are mainly Sulphur, Ant-Crud, Psorinum, etc. (Face Eruption), and many of them can be used for Acne on face. If one has acne, which are markedly aggravated by becoming heated i.e. after sporting activities there is aggravation of acne or new breakthrough of acne. Another indication for Causticum is that acnes are red and occurs in groups. Acne with marked reddish tint are defined as Acne rosacea for which there are about 15 medicines.

If one had acne only on any particular area of face i.e. only in forehead, chin, and nose and if one has acne only nose then he would be benefited by Causticum very much while individual with acne on forehead would be benefited by sulphur quite well.

Running Case: Acne in 30-year-old female

This 30-year-old female has acne mild to moderate in severity for many years controlled with oral contraceptive, which has been stopped in order to conceive.
Her acnes are papular and pustular with purplish tint. Sometimes they suppurate. They did not itch and the main location of acne is chin and lower jaw line. These are worse during warm condition.
Generalities: The patient is a cheerful lady with increased need of sleep for refreshment. It is hard to her to awake from sleep in the morning. Her dreams are vivid. Her menses are regular, scanty, short duration, brown fluid with clotted blood. Her acne complaints are much more worse during and just after menses. She wants a definite tasty food. At present, her thirst and appetite are increased. The patient has very dry skin in hands.
She is an active and exercising lady with fit body structure. Her bowel movements are regular.
After considering all of these, Lyco, Sulphur, Lach, and Graphites were considered.
Graphites have many of acne symptoms and menses symptoms of this lady, but is discarded at this due to her fit body and regular bowel movements.

Sulphur and Lyco both have dry skin in hands so it was decided to start treatment with Sulphur 30C, but it seems that she is a Lyco female and would be given after some dosages of Sulphur 30C.
I hope good improvement in her acne condition. She is presently using aloe topically which is quite beneficial for her and is advised to wash face with luke warm water and take Sulphur 30C in the morning that would certainly help.
Keep in touch and know her progress
