Where does scleroderma come from and who gets scleroderma?

Condition analysis:
Scientists don’t yet have a complete understanding of what causes scleroderma, but they are working hard to unravel the mystery, find better treatments and a cure. Anyone can get scleroderma, anywhere in the world and at any age. Women seem to be diagnosed with scleroderma more frequently than men. In fact, women with the disease outnumber men with it by about four-to-one. Many people show signs of the disease at middle-age.

Instructions:
Garlic: One of the best natural remedies for alleviating scleroderma is garlic. You should avoid the intake of garlic if you have scleroderma. Thus, only the topical application of garlic is advisable. It helps soften the skin.

Cut one garlic clove into three medium pieces. Apply each of the three pieces to affected areas on the skin. Rub these pieces on the patches for half an hour.

Alternatively, you can use a cotton ball, dip it in garlic oil and apply it to the affected area. You can also prepare garlic tea, and use a cloth to apply that on the skin. To prepare garlic tea, boil a few garlic cloves in water and brew the mixture.
