Gianotti-Crosti Syndrome

Gianotti-Crosti Syndrome

Gianotti-Crosti Syndrome, also known as papular acrodermatitis, is a rare skin disease that mainly affects children aged between 9 months to 9 years. The disease occurs as the result of a reaction to a systemic viral infection such as hepatitis B, CMV, infectious mononucleosis etc. The disease is characterized by the appearance of blisters on the skin that may or may not be itchy. These are asymmetrical, usually found on the face, buttocks, arms or legs and are fluid-filled. Mildly enlarged lymph nodes in the armpits or groins may persist for months. There is no specific treatment for this disease, however, an emollient or a mild topical steroid cream may be used to get rid of the itch. The blisters tend to fade within 2-8 weeks with mild scaling.

I was diagnosed as a Hepatitis B carrier in 2015, with early signs of liver fibrosis. At first, antiviral medications helped control the virus but over time, resistance developed, and the effectiveness faded. I began to lose hope. In 2021, I discovered NaturePath Herbal Clinic despite my skepticism, I decided to give their herbal treatment a try.To my surprise, after just six months, my blood tests came back negative for the virus.It was nothing short of life-changing.I never expected such incredible results from a natural treatment. But it not only cleared the virus it restored my hope, my health, and my peace of mind.If you or someone you know is battling Hepatitis B, I truly encourage you to explore the natural healing path offered by NaturePath Herbal Clinic. It gave me a second chance and it might do the same for you.www.naturepathherbalclinic.com info@naturepathherbalclinic.com
