The Skin

 

Eczema, psoriasis and acne are the three conditions to most commonly affect the skin.  All of these conditions can cause significant distress to those suffering with them.  Herbal remedies are often very effective at dealing with skin complaints. 

Eczema:

Eczema shows itself as inflamed, itchy patches of skin.  Eczema may appear anywhere on the body but is particularly common behind the knees and elbows, on the wrists and on the face. 

Factors Affecting Eczema:

Psoriasis:

Psoriasis appears as thickened areas of skin, usually on the extensor surfaces of the body such as elbows, but may appear elsewhere.
