Impetigo - was rash on bottom
Posted: Thu Feb 08, 2007 7:52 pm
I have a 'short list' of remedies to be sure to consider in impetigo, to which I will add Ant T after this discussion. Does anyone have others to add? What would be the description of Ant T in such a list?
Antim. Crud. - impetigo of the nostrils and corners of the mouth. pimples and pustules that itch especially after bath or heat of bed
Arsenicum - burning or itching eruptions aggravated by scratching
Croton Tig - impetigo of the scrotum
Graphities - when thick oozing and the scabs are honey colored. affects skin around joints
Hamamelis - impetigo of the scrotum
Hepar Sulphur - eruptions sensitive to touch - tendency to ulcerate
Mezereum - when scalp is infected and thick crusts form
Petroleum - with cracks in the skin - especially behind the ears
Rhus Tox - moist eruptions - itch worse at night
Sulphur - aggravation of pre-exiting skin condition. dry, thick, yellow scabs. discharge irritates surrounding skin.
