Treatment for Folliculitis

Dr Batra's

I was diagnosed with lichen plano pilaris of the scalp following a skin biopsy in 2006. Apparently this is a rare skin disease and is categorized as an auto-immune disorder. It leads to itchy and painful blisters on the scalp followed by hair fall and scarring. For the first few years I was only worried about the way I look and it didn't of course help at all to my own confidence and self-esteem. With my family's support, especially my wife's, I realized that I am worrying about the wrong thing. I should have concentrated all along on getting rid of the disease. In the past 8 years I have seen around 6 dermatologists (some in India, some in the US, where I currently live), and have been in homeopathic treatment with Dr. Siddiqa Khushtar (at Dr. Batra's clinic in Mumbai) for around the last 4 years. I am extremely happy to write that the homeopathy treatment has worked wonders. My doctor, Dr. Khushtar, has been extremely supportive and has been in constant touch with me for all this time. I have been taking homeopathy medication every day for the last 4 years or so (there have been no side effects, and it doesn't interrupt my daily routine in any way). Dr. Khushtar also provides me with SOS medication to be taken only for a couple of days if the disease flares up (I have had to use it on multiple occasions, usually stress-related - it really works). One other thing that I like about this treatment is that it is very holistic %u2013 my doctor prescribed me a diet chart that any normal person should follow to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

I hope nobody gets this disease, but for anyone who does have it, I strongly recommend Dr Batra's treatment. I will add that this has not been something that will be fixed in a couple of months, at least for me. As I mentioned, I have had this disease now for almost 8 years - I wish I had contacted Dr. Batra's clinic earlier. Although it takes a long time, this treatment has made me optimistic that this disease can be completely cured, and I feel that I am almost there!
