ABSTRACT

Urticaria, a local dermal inflammation, is a pruritic, oedematous, erythematous condition with blanching papules that are round or oval, with pale raised centres (wheals) on the skin. It is one of the troublesome skin diseases that people are affected with and seek for treatment. Homoeopathy offers effective treatment for acute, chronic, and recurrent urticaria by correcting the underlying disturbed immune system and, hence, treating the disease at a deep level. In homeopathy, many efficient remedies are present to help treat urticaria. Bovista Lycoperdon is one such important remedy that is very useful in urticaria, effecting the whole body with immense itching. In this study, 20 patients with a clinical history of urticaria were selected and given Bovista lycoperdon and the results showed that 35% of the participants showed marked improvement and another 35% of the participants showed moderate improvement. 

Keywords: Bovista lycoperdon, homoeopathy, urticaria.
