HOMOEOPATHIC TREATMENT FOR PITYRIASIS AMIANTACEA AT DR BATRA’S

Abstract

Pityriasis amiantacea is a rare eczematous scalp condition characterized by thick scales that adhere to hair shafts, often resulting in temporary or scarring alopecia. It can be localized or cover the entire scalp and is commonly associated with psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis. A 27-year-old male accountant presented with recurring scalp flaking, itching, and occasional bleeding spots. After other treatments failed to provide relief, he turned to homeopathy. Following treatment at Dr. Batra's, he is now free from the condition, highlighting the effectiveness of homeopathic treatment for this disorder.
