Why homeopathy doesn't prescribe external applications

 Why Homeopaths doesn't recommend external applications 



External applications are not recommend in the homeopathic prescription on account of many reasons.

Before we get into the details let's know what do I mean by external applications. External applications can be anything from simple moisturizer to any steroid ointments.

External application is only recommended when there is any mechanical injury. At this point you can use external application, but the medicine which is taken internally should be applied externally.


External applications in diseases like psoriasis, eczema , ringworm or any other disease which has come from inside should always be treated with internal medication. Because when you apply ointment or lotion to the rashes they disappear for some days but the disease is still inside your body. When apply ointment the rashes disappear from that point and appear in the other region but you never really got cured from the disease. This is something common everyone might have experienced in their journey of suffering from any skin diseases. The old eruption might disappear but the new one appears. This is commonly experienced by everyone and you really fall into despair that your disease is not curable and you get habituated to live with it for years together. 

This is what happens with the external applications,they don't cure your disease they just conceal your disease just like you apply little extra foundation on your pimple. 

This applies not just to the diseases and ointments but also the moisturizers , serums etc. Anything you apply on your skin matters.

Skin absorbs whatever you give to it. It doesn't stay just there, it goes to the whole body. 


Besides that according to Homeopathy the eruptions are end products of the disease, even though you remove the eruptions on the skin the disease is still present the person's body. The disease will definitely come again in a much intense way than the previous time. 

When eruptions are removed the symptoms expressed by the disease are also gone. The symptoms are the expressions of the disease. So when symptoms disappear it becomes difficult to the nature of the disease and it becomes difficult for a homeopath to treat and cure the disease.

I hope this information is helpful for you. This information may not be the elaborated way but atleast I gave you an basic idea or knowledge regarding external applications.

He was into translating translating medical books into different languages. He came across a experiment of cinchona bark in a book called cullen's materia medica. He found that cinchona bark has fever producing symptoms , based on that he made many experiments and formulated law of similia. Which means every substance which produces disease will also have disease curing...
