Child- Mysterious Hand Rash and Homeopathics

My eldest daughter, Naomi, is 7. For the past six – eight months she had a rash on the back of her hands. I had eliminated wheat and dairy about six months earlier, so I didn’t think this was the cause.
It was not itchy or painful, other than when I applied shea butter- and that was only occasionally.
I gave her Homeopathic Petroleum for about a week, and it seemed to subside. Homeopatic Sulphur caused it aggravation. I had been giving her cod liver oil, probiotics, and other vitamins a few times a week for over 6 months.
At the end of my skill set, I made an appointment with my naturopath, Dr Alana. Naomi tested for a virus in her intestinal tract. Dr Alana perscribed Detoxosode and Unda 3, along with some calendula ointment. The rash cleared in less than a week!
Lesson learned: Do the best you can with the knowledge you have, and consult a professional!
