Malignant Melanoma, commonly referred to as melanoma, is a type of skin cancer that develops in the melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing melanin—the pigment that gives skin its color. It is often recognized as cancerous moles that may change in size, shape, or color. Early detection and treatment are crucial for managing this aggressive form of cancer.
While conventional treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation are widely used, many patients explore complementary therapies like homeopathy to improve their quality of life and manage symptoms effectively.
What is Malignant Melanoma?
Malignant melanoma is a severe form of skin cancer. It may begin as a mole but differs significantly from regular moles due to its potential to invade nearby tissues and metastasize to other parts of the body, including the lungs, liver, and brain.
World Epidemiology
Globally, the number of patients detected with melanoma has been increasing. New pieces of information demonstrate that, roundly, 324,635 new patients were determined to have melanoma worldwide in 2020. The highest size of the burden of melanoma was found in countries with light-complexioned people, including Australia, New Zealand and Northern European countries.
Indian Epidemiology
In India, melanoma is less frequent as compared to Western countries. But still, it is worrying because it is believed that there are around 0.3 to 1.6 bizarre carcinomas per 100,000 persons in this locality. Interestingly, in our country, these areas are the usual sites, and its predominant type is not found in the population of the Western countries. Pleural, cutis, and sarcomas are the most frequent.
Causes of Melanoma:
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight or sunbeds is the most common reason for melanoma. Other things that can increase the risk of developing melanoma are:
- Fair skin
- History of sunburns
- Family history of melanoma
- Weakened immune system
- Presence of many moles or unusual moles
Symptoms of Melanoma:
Early discovery of the symptoms caused by melanoma is indispensable. If you follow the ABCDE rule, you will be equipped with great and vital information for the detection of likely melanomas:
- A – Asymmetry
- B – Border irregularity
- C – Color variations
- D – Diameter bigger than 6mm
- E – Evolution of size, shape, or color
Melanoma Treatment: Conventional and Side Effects
Traditional methods for melanoma treatment counts:
- Surgery: The main means of treatment, which may come with negative things like scarring and risk of infection.
- Immunotherapy: May cause patients to have fatigued states, skin reactions, and even may afflict the organs.
- Targeted therapy: This particular action could bring in irritating side effects of the skin as well as fever and joint pains.
- Radiation therapy: It has the potential to cause the skin to peel and the person becomes tired.
- Chemotherapy: Sometimes, it could cause side effects like nausea, hair loss, or the person may become more likely to have infections.
Benefits of Homeopathy in Treating Melanoma
In addition to the conventional allopathic treatment options, I prescribe homeopathy which has multifaceted benefits as a complementary treatment for melanoma, Such as:
- Minimal side effects
- Personalized treatment approach
- Potential to boost the immune system
- May help manage symptoms and improve quality of life
Five Homeopathic Medicines for Melanoma
On the basis of my practical observations, the following indicated homeopathic remedies are likely to be beneficial for supporting the treatment of melanoma:
- Thuja Occidentalis
This treatment mainly deals with skin conditions like warts and moles among others. It can also be helpful for cases where melanoma develops from pre-existing moles.
- Arsenicum Album
Perfectly suitable for people with the problem of skin cancers which are accompanied by the unusual sensation of burning and anxiety. It might also help with the side effects of the traditional treatments.
- Carcinosin
All those cases with a family history of cancer or that have been treated without the other remedies are used with this kind of therapy. It is prepared from cancerous tissue.

This means it is good for ulcerating skin cancers, and it can help in boosting your immunity if you are taking treatment for cancer.
- Conium Maculatum
It is the one that is used in tumors that are very hard and painful. Furthermore, it can ease out the pain and discomfort related to melanoma.
