The terms eczema and dermatitis are used to refer to the same condition, which is described as superficial inflammation of the skin, which may be acute or chronic. This Inflammation is characterised and accompanied by vesicles in the acute stages, redness, oedema, oozing, crusting, scaling and typically itching. Commonly seen as a result of allergic reactions, poor digestion, inadequate diet, stress and ineffective or overwhelmed elimination.

PMS includes recurrent signs and symptoms that develop during the seven to fourteen days prior to menstruation. This condition occurs in most women 3-7 days before the flow starts or in some women it can begin at the time of ovulation and last for 14 days until the flow starts. Usually the symptoms are mild in most of the cases, but in few cases they can be severe when it is known as "Premenstrual dystrophic disorder".

Symptoms and signs:

Also known as reflux, heartburn, or acid indigestion. Reflux is derived from "re" meaning "back" and "fluxus" meaning "flow". Gastroesopageal reflux is a form of dyspepsia (indigestion) where stomach contents are regurgitated into the oesophagus and sometimes the mouth, which results in a burning sensation in the stomach or chest. This is commonly described as "heartburn'. There may also be the sensation of fluid in the oesophagus or mouth, and a sour or bitter taste.
