Melanoma is an aggressive skin disease of a malignant nature . The vast majority of cases of melanoma are associated with degeneration of nevus tissue under the influence of external factors.
Time-tested alternative medicine can provide serious support to ongoing drug treatment for melanoma. Even practicing oncologists do not dispute the effectiveness of traditional recipes against skin cancer.

The recipes given below increase the vitality of the body and exhibit local and general healing effects. Only the attending physician can tell which medicine will be useful in a particular case of the disease.
Note! When treating melanoma with folk remedies, you should carefully protect the skin from exposure to ultraviolet radiation, both natural (sun tanning) and artificial (solarium).
Lesions
According to statistics, melanoma, as mentioned above, appears mainly on the skin, but there are exceptions.
Sometimes the formation is localized on the mucous membranes of the oral and nasal cavities or on the back surface of the eyelids. In some cases, the tumor is found in the vagina and rectum. How to treat melanoma
Melanoma accounts for one percent of the total number of oncological diseases, in particular cancers. Taking into account the data provided by experts, we can say that young people aged 15 to 40 years are most at risk of developing malignant tumors. This group accounts for about 20 percent of all cases of the disease, while other types of tumors at the same age make up 4 percent.
Phytotherapy
Traditional methods of treatment give a positive result only if all the rules are followed, the main one of which is the exclusion of the risk factor for the occurrence of pathology.
When being outside in sunny weather, it is advisable to protect exposed areas of the body and head from the sun's rays. To do this, you can use long sleeves, a hat and special creams. Before the treatment course, it is necessary to carry out a complete cleansing of the body.
Quite often, various herbs are used to prepare decoctions and infusions, but it is necessary to complete the full course to achieve the desired effect. Usually improvements are noticeable no earlier than a week after the start of therapy. This is explained by the fact that beneficial substances gradually accumulate in the patient’s body.
Tinctures are considered more effective than decoctions, since they contain a greater concentration of active ingredients. After completing therapy or completing the course after 2 months, it is necessary to replace certain infusions with other options for herbal remedies so that addiction does not develop.
Melanoma is one of the fastest growing forms of cancer and ranks second in the ranking after lung cancer in terms of speed of development.
The therapeutic effect of herbal medicine is based on the fact that some plants are able to slow down the development of cancer, so that cancer cell structures will grow and multiply more slowly. There are also herbs that destroy malignant tumors and stimulate the growth of normal cellular structures in the body. In addition, tinctures and decoctions with anti-radiation, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects are actively used.
Development and course of the disease
Malignant melanoma can develop as a new independent formation, but another option is more common. In most cases, the tumor appears at the base of a mole. First, the mole begins to gradually increase in size, and then a change in shape and color occurs under the influence of melanin.
Malignant melanoma
There are three types of melanoma: lentigo maligna, nodular melanoma and acral melanoma. Despite the fact that each of these diseases has its own characteristics, it is possible to identify characteristic features that unite all three ailments. In all cases, the common fact is that the main indicator is the condition of the mole.
Pigmented nevi (moles)
If the nevus begins to thicken and change its structure, then there is a serious reason to consult a specialist. If there is the slightest change in the surface of a mole, it is necessary to carefully examine this area every day in order to promptly notice possible bleeding. Often a sign of developing melanoma is redness of the skin in the area of the nevus or persistent itching. As a rule, this indicates that the process of cell degeneration is occurring.
Among the main sources of the disease, it is customary to put in first place the negative effects of ultraviolet radiation on the skin.
Most often, the cause is prolonged exposure to the bright sun or frequent visits to solariums. In second place are injuries to age spots and moles. Damage to those areas that are in constant contact with clothing is especially dangerous.
Features and reasons for appearance
Melanoma is a type of skin cancer. The disease accounts for one percent of all cancers. According to statistics from the World Health Organization, more than 48,000 people die from tumors every year, and the disease affects an increasing number.
The population of southern countries where there is increased insolation is at risk. The disease has been proven to attack people over thirty years of age, but sometimes occurs in children. In each country, from 6 to 30 citizens per 100 thousand people are exposed to skin cancer.
How does melanoma proceed: melanocyte cells degenerate into atypical neoplasms, affecting the epidermis and mucous membranes. If there is no proper treatment, the cellular structures multiply throughout the body: metastases penetrate into organs, life support systems and bones.
The treatment course is prescribed after examining a smear from a skin tumor. After surgery to remove the tumor, the histological diagnosis is confirmed. The doctor prescribes a course of immune, radiation and chemical therapy.
Folk remedies for melanoma help only in the first stage of the disease, during primary therapy and prevention.
Risks of cancer growth are present in a person with the first or second skin phototype. People with dark skin are least susceptible to the disease. The possibility of disease is increased by sun burns and ultraviolet radiation, the effect of which occurs when visiting a solarium.
The formation of the deviation is also influenced by heredity - in people whose relatives have a history of melanoma, the formation develops more often. Doctors comment that this is due to a disrupted gene that is passed on to the child - it impairs the functioning of suppressors.
In 75% of cases, cell degeneration occurs in nevus pigments. Moles, blue nevi, xeroderma and Dubreuil's melanosis are the main formations on the skin that can develop into malignant ones. The main factors influencing the formation of melanoma:
- trauma to the pigment area;
- prolonged exposure to sunlight;
- heredity;
- diseases of the endocrine system.
The main symptoms vary depending on the extent, size and location of the melanoblastoma. It can be round, triangular or uneven in shape, color - from black to blue-violet, while the color is uneven.
Melanoma, which forms in the eyes, causes a number of special symptoms:
- vision deteriorates;
- photopsia are formed - eggs, points of light and colored spots;
- scotomas appear - blind areas in the field of view.
General symptoms by which you can identify the disease yourself:
- change in color, size, shape of a mole;
- itching;
- bleeding;
- fast growth.
Doctors have proven that melanoma can be treated with traditional methods at the initial stage, and herbs and tinctures can be used to support health during chemotherapy.
Celandine

Every person is at risk of developing skin cancer, but there are groups of people with a greater predisposition to this disease
As a rule, these are fair-skinned blonds with freckles. The disease is greatly influenced by genetic predisposition. So, if one of your relatives had skin lesions, melanoma or basal cell carcinoma, then the risk of developing malignant tumors increases significantly. In addition, people with a large number of moles are sensitive to such diseases, since melanoma most often forms in nevi.

To take the tincture inside catharanthus rosea, a glass jar is loosely filled with fresh herbs, filled with 70% alcohol and left for two weeks in the sun. Since such a tincture can be toxic to the liver, the dosage is selected based on the patient’s condition. As a rule, take 15 drops of tincture three times a day, gradually reaching this dosage. After three months of use, you need to take a break of one month.

- Eleutherococcus;
- ginseng;
- Rhodiola rosea;
- turmeric;
- birch mushroom.

The juice should be drunk freshly squeezed, but kept in the cold for 2-3 hours. The recommended daily dose is up to 3 glasses.
Herbal decoctions and infusions are not able to stop cancer, but they support the patient’s body, while highly toxic therapy, effective against actively dividing pathogenic cells, negatively affects all functions of the body.
Podophyllum
Podofil thyroid is a good strengthening and antitumor agent. For melanoma, the root of the plant is used, which is finely chopped, placed in a spacious bowl or pan, covered with sugar in a 1:1 ratio, covered with a lid and pressed tightly with a press.

Classic antitumor preparations sold in pharmacies are no less effective in treating a malignant process.
The feasibility and effectiveness of traditional medicine
The use of folk remedies at home in the treatment of tumors is popular. However, it is important to consult a doctor before taking it! Oncology is successfully treated using a combination of traditional and non-traditional methods.
The first signs of melanoma are immediately apparent, so most patients come to the doctor on time and receive a positive prognosis for treatment
Traditional methods will be a good help to official medicine. Their effect is especially good to observe in the early stages of melanoma.
Plantain is the most effective in curing skin tumors. The healing properties of the golden mustache have also been noted. A large number of healers recommend using birch bark to treat skin. The effect of tinctures is much greater than that of decoctions.
Doctors themselves resort to the use of traditional medicine and recommend homemade recipes to their patients. They are not inferior in effectiveness to synthetic drugs. The advantage of this treatment is safety and a minimum of contraindications. As a result, the patient is less likely to develop adverse reactions.
Treatment with folk remedies for skin cancer can only be effective if the patient eliminates all risk factors. It is necessary to avoid exposure to sunlight on the skin and use special cosmetics that protect against ultraviolet radiation. And also a cancer patient, before a course of herbal medicine, must cleanse the blood, kidneys, and liver of toxins. In the fight against the disease, the general immunological background is important; medicinal herbs will help boost immunity and activate the body’s protective functions.
Dead bees
Speaking about folk methods in the fight against melanoma, one cannot fail to mention such a remedy as dead bees. It is used when a patient is undergoing chemotherapy or surgery.
Bee venom combined with chitosan shows a positive result in the destruction of cancer cells. The components act synchronously - the poison destroys atypical cells from the outside, acting through the blood, and chitosan cleanses the blood and stops metastasis.
The medicine is made in two ways:
- Add a spoonful of dead water to half a liter of water and cook over low heat.
- Take raw materials and vodka in 1:1 proportions, mix and infuse.
The medicine is used for three weeks three times a day.
Humanity knows a huge number of folk remedies, the effectiveness of which should not be doubted. They can be used both internally and at the site of the tumor. Popular remedies include tinctures, ointments and extracts made from herbs or infusions. But the main rule in phototherapy is to consult a specialist.

Experts' opinion
Traditional methods in the fight against skin melanoma are effective, but they must be prescribed by a specialist! It is important to understand that they are not a panacea, and may not be suitable for everyone. In view of this, the treatment of melanoma with folk remedies should be advised by a doctor, if he considers it necessary.
In the primary stages, melanoma, like many other cancers, is very easy to treat
There are many folk remedies, the effectiveness of which is not in doubt. They can be taken both internally and externally. The most popular remedies are extracts, teas, herbs and tinctures. Before use, you should consult a doctor, since not every person is suitable for one or another folk option. It is recommended to combine traditional and alternative medicine.
Important warnings before starting alternative treatment
Alternative therapy cannot affect a tumor in an advanced stage of active metastasis. It is advisable to try it at the beginning of the disease or after removal of malignant melanoma. In the second case, folk recipes are used to prevent relapses.
Folk remedies should be used only after talking with an oncologist as an addition to the main treatment.
Not all such remedies are effective. Some may worsen the course of melanoma, so prior consultation with a doctor is required.
