Homemade Treatments For Leukoderma

Causes Of  Leukoderma

When people experience the loss of the skin pigment, this causes the appearance of white patches on their skin. This condition is known as leukoderma. This condition is far more common in women than in men. Usually these white patches can be noticed on the neck, back, wrist and hands. People who have a lot of worries and are constantly stressed are usually the ones who fall prey to this skin condition. People who have acute gastric disorders are also the people who suffer from leukoderma. Sometimes other reasons like worms or parasites in the body, typhoid or jaundice or a preparatory mechanism that doesn’t work well can be the reasons for the appearance of the white patches on the skin.

Home Remedies For Leukoderma

You can treat Leucoderma by learning to relax. Also you can ensure that you are not constipated by eating food that contains high fiber content. You can use twenty five grams of radish seeds, ground into a powder and mix this with two teaspoons of vinegar to make a paste. This paste can be regularly applied on the patches of white skin and then washed off when it is dry.  You will find that a regular application of Aloe Vera gel on these white patches will cause them to reduce in intensity, and over time, even disappear.

You can soak half a kilogram of turmeric in eight liters of water. Boil this till you find that roughly only a liter is left. This liquid can be stained. To the strained liquid you can add half a liter of mustard oil. This can be applied on the white patches twice a day, for best results. Mix about 100 gms each of alfalfa and cucumber juice. Drink this every day, morning and evening.  You can dry some leaves of the pomegranate tree in the sun till they are completely brittle. Grind these till you get a fine powder. Eat about a teaspoon of this powder in the morning and evening every day, swallowing it with one glass of water.  The leaves of a Neem tree are also very effective in treating leukoderma. You can grind the leaves and extract the juice of these leaves and drink this concoction every day. You can also make a paste of the leaves of the Neem tree and apply this on the white patches of your skin.   Eating basil leaves can help reduce the white patches. You can also boil some of these leave in water and drink this decoction regularly. A poultice made of ginger leaves, when applied on the white patches, can help them disappear.
