Chilblains
Friends today I am discussing about Chilblains . Chilblains The name suggests, chilblains are small, itchy swellings that appear on the skin due to exposure to cold or humid conditions over a period. The tissue gets inflammed, and the symptoms of damaged capillary beds in the skin are usually visible. This condition affects the extreme parts of the body that are more susceptible to cold, like the fingertips, toes, nose, ears, and heels. Chilblains rarely cause any permanent damage and tend to heal within weeks with proper precautions. A homeopathic remedy for chilblains like Agaricus works to reduce the swelling and inflammation, and also provide relief from painful symptoms. Chilblains are also known as Perniosis or Chilburns. Causes of Chilblains Chilblains are usually considered to be an idiopathic condition which means that there is no particular cause behind it. The most common reasons that are thought to cause this condition are as follows: It can be related to body’s abnormal reaction when an individual is exposed to a cold or humid environment, followed by sudden rewarming. The superficial blood vessels become narrow when exposed to extremes of temperature. These usually expand to their usual size with slow, gradual and steady warmth. But if sudden rewarming of the affected part occurs, the blood vessels expand quickly. This leads to an increased blood flow which the superficial blood vessels cannot handle. The blood then leaks out into the surrounding tissues, resulting in itchiness and swelling. Chilblains can be hereditary too; a positive family history can be a risk factor. A long-standing history of chronic chilblains indicates a disorder of the connective tissue Homeopathic Remedy for Chilblains The best treatment for chilblains is a natural science. Homeopathy takes into consideration the fact that the symptoms of disease occur as a result of the body’s inability to combat an infection. Homeopathy helps in boosting an individual’s immune response to fight the infections and restore the body to its healthy state. Homeopathic remedy for chilblains is a completely natural, non-intrusive, and safe treatment method. Made of natural substances, homeopathic medicines are used to get rid of chilblains quickly.

Today my topic is on #Chilblains #Swelling of fingers #Itching in fingers in #winters. Most of the peoples are worrying about this I will try to give solutions. #Chilblains are small lesions caused by the inflammation of tiny blood vessels after exposure to cold air. They’re often painful and tend to affect the skin on your hands and feet. Other names for this condition include pernio, perniosis, and cold-induced vascular disorder. What are the symptoms? Chilblains are patches of skin that appear swollen and red or occasionally blue in color. Due to the swelling, they may look shiny. Other symptoms include: • burning sensation • blisters • itchiness What causes them? Cold weather can cause small blood vessels near the surface of your skin to tighten. Once you warm up, these small vessels may expand too quickly. This may cause blood to leak into nearby tissue, resulting in swelling. The swelling then irritates nerves in the affected area, causing pain. Doctors aren’t sure why this happens, but it may be related to an unusual reaction to cold exposure and rewarming. Homoeopathic medicines • Aconitum napellus. This remedy may be helpful for pain and inflammation that comes on suddenly after exposure to cold wind and weather. ... • Arnica. ... • Belladonna. ... • Bryonia. ... • Calcarea phosphorica. ... • Ledum palustre. ... • Pulsatilla. ... • Rhus toxicodendron.
