Although eczema is rarely serious or life-threatening, it can cause real distress, especially when it’s on very visible areas such as the hands.
The homoeopathic remedy Natrum Muriaticum, which is simply sodium chloride, or common salt, is often very helpful for eczema that appears on the hands. The eczema is likely to be extremely dry, chapped and cracked. The dryness may be so intense that the skin is red raw. The itch and the dryness will be worse in the sun or by the sea, and it’ll also be worse for sweating, touch and wearing wool.
There is likely to be an emotional component to the skin issues: a closed, reserved, somewhat serious character with a history of grief or disappointment.
The eczema may cause this person a lot of embarrassment and the person may try to conceal the affected areas as much as they can.
The remedy Natrum Muriaticum can help reduce the dryness and leave the skin clearer and itch-free.
