Vitiligo causes; homeopathy medicine for vitiligo

Having a fair skin is a privilege that most would love to have. But when it comes to the development of a white patch on the skin, it is the worst nightmare one could ever think of. Vitiligo is a pigmentation disorder in which the color giving cells of the skin die making the skin surface milky white in color. Even though many have modern thought processes but still when it comes to vitiligo or seeing a white patch on the skin, it is a social stigma in many communities and societies.

Vitiligo causes are unknown but hereditary is the top most contributing factor. A person having the tendency to develop vitiligo can suffer from this disorder when any of the following triggering factors come into action like emotional stress, anxiety or fear. Vitiligo can get worse or the treatment progress can get slow if the person is also suffering from diabetes mellitus or thyroid disorder or any other autoimmune condition. Stress is one of the leading factors of delay in the treatment progress for vitiligo.

The change in the appearance of the skin caused by vitiligo can affect a person emotionally or psychologically. Till the patches are on places which can be covered, it is not as bothersome as it would be when the patches appear on areas which cannot be covered like the face and hands. It creates a feeling of embarrassment, depression and is worrisome especially in Indian society where it gets difficult to get a partner. A feeling of depression leads to social withdrawal and some may even develop suicidal tendencies.

Accepting the condition is very important for a positive vitiligo treatment outcome. A person suffering from vitiligo and his / her family members should be well educated about the skin disorder. Support from family and friends would help greatly in faster improvement for a person suffering from vitiligo. Getting involved with people who have suffered or are suffering from vitiligo and knowing how they have coped with condition would also help immensely in developing the lost confidence.

Homeopathy medicine for Vitiligo

Homeopathy medicine for vitiligo is based on individual case history. When a detailed case history is initiated in homeopathy it is with an aim to find out how the skin disorder was triggered? Whether vitiligo has just appeared suddenly or after a major life event. If homeopathy is considered as a treatment option in early stages of the skin disorder the overall control on the disorder is much better.

Conventional modes of treatment consist of UVB lights which are known to cause burn and blisters. This could damage the skin permanently by causing a permanent scar. Homeopathy medicine for vitiligo helps triggering re-pigmentation and corrects the altered immune response. As already mentioned above emotional stress can delay the treatment progress and can also cause a rapid spread of vitiligo.  Vitiligo Treatment in homeopathy can help treat this factor very effectively without causing dependence or addiction.
