Hi. I'm suffering from stubborn scalp folliculitis for one year now. I've tried allopathy but antibiotics are just a temporary solution. Then I switched to homeopathy and it has been two months. But there isn't any visible changes. I've been given hepar sulphur 30 (thrice a day) and mezereum 200 one dose a week. I need an honest opinion on how much time does it take to get cured of it? Kindly let me know how many months will it take? As I'm losing my faith now. I just need a tentative time frame so that I patiently take my medicine till then without stressing myself out.
