Close Eczema

I have suffered with eczema all my life, but I find that good attitide and gfood diet along with active keeping clean and moisturised has really made life more tolorable. I come here to share, find new ideas and offer what has worked for me.

Treatments

Aloe Vera Working / Worked

very soothing nad healing

Eucerin Working / Worked

do use fop moisturizing especially in the winter time

Evening Primrose Oil Working / Worked

helps alot especially for inflamation

Hydrocortisone Not Working

found that these kind of steroids just seem to mask the problem and there is no longterm affects from use.

Melaleuca Tea tree oil Working / Worked

Love tea tree oil, take baths with it, use on infections and even works for bug bites. There are other brands of tea tree oil besides Melaleuca and I find them just as effective and cheaper. Melaleuca is just a brand, be aware of that all.

Protopic Working / Worked

tried and had lots of redness and burning

Triamcinolone Topical Working / Worked

used this too in the past, the eczema always seems to come back with topical steroids.
