Rosacea and Homeopathy
Rosacea is a chronic skin disease that only strikes the face, resulting in redness of the skin and visible blood vessels with occasional breakouts of acne-like bumps. The cause of this disease cannot be pinpointed exactly, although it is largely believed to result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Although conventional treatments have included topical and oral antibiotics, homeopathy offers an all-rounded approach; this approach offers a holistic treatment, addressing root causes for long-term relief.
Rosacea Causes
- Genetics: Heredity could be a contributing factor for the disorder. If you have any family history of rosacea, your chances of getting this disease increase.
- Environmental Factors: The UV radiation from sun, stress, hot drinks, spicy food, etc., may exacerbate the condition.
- Immune Response: Certain beliefs say that the cause for rosacea is an overactive immune response.
- Microbial Factors: There are several cases where rosacea is caused due to Demodex folliculorum, one type of mite, and Helicobacter pylori bacteria
