It is chronic, intensely pruritic, and of a relapsing nature. There are several risk factors related to AD. However, family history and filaggrin (FLG) genes are leading among them. As per available data, Homoeopathy is very effective for the management of AD. This case is of a child 8 years of age who was suffering from AD for almost 7 months. He presented with pruritus with eczematous lesions and redness in the right axilla. There was oozing of sticky discharge from the affected area. After proper case-taking and repertorization, Graphites 30 was prescribed, followed by Graphites 200. After a few follow-ups gradual improvement was observed. This case study reveals a positive role of homoeopathic treatment in atopic dermatitis. pdf Published 2024-06-25 Issue Vol 8 No 2 (2024): April-June 2024 Section Case Reports
