Natural Way to Get Rid of Psoriasis and Eczema

Intestinal problems are the major issue for eczema and dermatitis.  Your skin has a very strong connection to the Large Intestine as well as the Lungs (in Chinese medicine, we call the skin the third lung, and in our medicine the Large Intestines and Lungs are a considered paired organs). That is why  intestinal imbalances might reflect outwardly on the skin .   Most of the eczema patients have intestinal problem no matter if they have the intestinal complaints or not.

Most often, they occur on skin that is expose to constant friction, trauma, or abrasion. They can also occur on the larynx (the voice box) and cause hoarseness. Common warts may be flat or raised , dry or moist, and have a rough and pitted surface that is either the same color as or slightly darker than the surrounding skin. They can be as small as a pinhead or as large as small bean. Highly contagious, the virus that causes common warts is acquired through breaks in the skin.   Common warts can spread if they picked, trimmed,
