Introduction

In the UK 1 in 5 children and 1 in 12 adults get eczema.Most just learn to live with it or take steroid creams, which have side-effects.

Nicola is prone to getting eczema (dermatitis) and has had frequent outbreaks since childhood. For several years now, she has been getting flare-ups of dyshidrotic (pompholyx) eczema on her feet. She suffered blistering, which is characteristic for this form of eczema.

coMra Treatment

Nicola started by treating her feet locally: at 1000 and 50 Hz, daily for 10 minutes per foot.

After that she switched to the full Dermatology 1 treatment, but she adjusted the points, because her internal organs were slightly re-positioned due to her pregnancy.

Progress

After one week of local treatment, Nicola reported that she had more red spots and blisters but there was less itchiness. At this point she switched to Dermatology 1.

After one more week (or two in total) on August 23^rd, she still had a lot of blisters and she was experiencing discomfort in the affected area.

She took the recommended two weeks break from treatments until September 6^th.

During the break her condition had already much improved and the blisters had disappeared.

Nevertheless, there was a lot of improvement since the last treatment. Most of the spots have gone and the skin looks normal and not red, and there is no itchiness. This can be seen from below photo. It was taken at the date of writing the report, but Nicola's foot has been this clear since the end of September.
