CASE OF INFANTILE ECZEMA
This is the case of Baby. P.K (Patient Ref. No. PS-403), a 4YEARS old female child who was brought to the clinic by anxious parents with complains of infantile eczema since the age of 2 months. She would develop reddish eruptions over the body and these would be more severe on the cheeks. She would get severe itching and would become very irritable on account of the same. Her complaints would get worse during the winter season and at night time.

Along with these she also had history of recurrent colds since childhood. She would develop cold and cough every 2-3 weeks.

She had marked desire for sweets, cold-drinks, ice-creams, chocolate and fruits. She would sweat lesser than normal. She was comfortable in the cold climate usually. She was a chubby child by constitution.

The peculiar mental traits were that she was an obstinate child with marked fear of darkness and of loud noise. She loved music, dancing and going out. She did not like to be caressed but otherwise was of a very mixing and playful nature. Never sit one place for long time. She has excessive crying when her demand is not full filled. Lying on abdomen. She is child of working parents. Mother rejoins her job at the 2 months age of pt. she leave her in crab. This is the time when complaint was started.

Based on these features she was prescribed homoeopathic medicine named Medorrhinum. Within few days itching was gone, her tendency to develop these eczematous lesions was markedly better. She would get these lesions only occasionally and they would not even require treatment at times. Frequent attacks of cold and cough also under control.
