There is currently no cure for eczema though research continues to shed new light on the condition. However, there are many ways to minimize the discomfort and distress which eczema can bring, the foundation of which is an effective skin care routine. A wide range of treatments is available, either over the counter at the pharmacy, or on prescription from a doctor. Many complementary therapies are available, which some people find helpful. In addition, there are ways of minimising environmental allergens commonly found in the home.

A CURE FOR\nDANDRUFF!\n \n\nYes, I did "cure" mine and so have many others using a substance that most people have at home.\n\n\n\n \n\nWhat Is Dandruff?\nFollowing are some the definitions I have come across:\n\nDandruff is a bothersome problem sometimes thought to be associated with inefficient hair care. Nothing could be further from the truth - anyone who has dandruff knows that!\n\n\nIf you're troubled by dandruff, that snowy, dust-like stuff that falls from scalp to shoulders, you're not alone: Nearly everyone has dandruff to some degree. But care must be taken not to confuse simple dandruff with other conditions that also cause flaking of the scalp, such as seborrheic dermatitisor psoriasis.\n\nDandruff occurs when the scalp sheds dead epidermal (skin) cells in large clumps. Dandruff scales appear dry, white or grayish, appearing as small, unsightly patches, especially on top of the head.\n\nScalp cells replenish themselves in a pattern similar to that of hair, but more rapidly: The skin of the head renews itself about once a month. Dead scalp cells are constantly being pushed from the deepest layer of the epidermis to the skin's surface, where they gradually die. Usually the scalp sheds them in a nearly invisible way. But for reasons that are still unclear, cell turnover sometimes becomes unusually rapid, and dead cells are shed as the visible flakes called dandruff. Although most people assume dandruff comes from a dry scalp, the opposite is true: People with oily scalps tend to suffer most from dandruff.\n\n"This may be due to an oily scalp supporting the growth of yeast in the scalp, which is thought to be instrumental in the development of scaling and scalp irritation," says Joseph P. Bark, M.D., chairman of dermatology at St. Joseph's Hospital in Lexington, Ky. "A large preponderance of males have dandruff, which may suggest some role of androgen hormones in dandruff."\n\nBark says that dandruff has its bright side: If the scalp doesn't shed its dead skin cells, the human scalp would be tremendously thick. "But when the cell turnover goes too far and increases, then you get not only visible excess scaling, but redness and itching," he says. "Redness and itching is actually seborrheic dermatitis, and it frequently occurs around the folds of the nose and the eyebrow areas, not just the scalp."\n\nSometimes itching of the scalp is also experienced. Dandruff is a very common problem. The most common cause is probably a small skin fungus, previously known as Pityrosporum ovale, now renamed Malassezia furfur. The fungus is found naturally on the skin surface of both healthy people and those with dandruff. The fungus likes fat, and is consequently found most on skin areas with plenty of sebaceous glands: on the scalp, face and upper part of the body. When Malassezia furfur grows too rapidly, the natural renewal of cells is disturbed and dandruff appears with itching. \n\nDandruff is made up of bits of dead skin that peel away from the scalp as a result of the effects of metabolism. Normally, dandruff, in its early stages of growth, is not visible to the naked eye. It becomes visible only after enlarging into pieces of dead skin (what we normally call "dandruff") as a result of the propagation of bacteria and/or problems with seborrhoeic scalp conditions. Persons suffering from prolonged dandruff are said to have a dandruff ailment. This type of ailment, accompanied by itchiness, can lead to eczema if it worsens.\n\n \n\nSome suggested causes for dandruff:\nContrary to the old wives tales, dandruff isn't caused by too much shampooing or dry skin. It is triggered by overactive oil glands, food allergies, stress, excessive perspiration, or harsh shampoos.\n\nThere is a common misconception that dandruff is caused by scalp skin being too dry. Hence some people avoid washing their hair, believing that the drying effect of shampoo will worsen t

There is no allopathic (modern) cure for psoriasis! The medication will only be able to limit or contain the condition.\n\nHowever, homeopathic medicines are known to be very effective against psoriasis. So a homeopath will help!

I've tried everything I can to no avail.  I have two patches that refuse to go away.  They'll subside a bit, then flare up with a vengeance.  Sunlight and artificial sunlight may help.  Cortisone creams (Rx from Doc - the OTC stuff doesn't help).  Keep applying good lotions -- that seems to help fight off the plaque build-up. Warm showers and baths.\n\nVitamins, supplements, diet and lifestyle -- any things that boost your immune system are highly recommended.\n\nDon't despair.  You're not alone.  Docs and researchers are bound to make a breakthrough.  (Soon, I hope!!!)\n\nHere's a couple of websites:\n\nhttp://skintherapyletter.com/\n\nhttp://www.skincareguide.com/\n\nI'll add more links when I get a chance.  I believe I have more url's saved in another directory I can't go to right this second.\n\nGood luck.  I'll be checking back for tips myself.\n\nP.S.  The Rx I'm using now is Eucerin cream with triamcinolone added (a corticosteroid).

While there is neither a cure for alopecia areata nor drugs approved for its treatment, some people find that medications approved for other purposes can help hair grow back, at least temporarily. The following are some treatments for alopecia areata. Keep in mind that while these treatments may promote hair growth, none of them prevent new patches or actually cure the underlying disease. Consult your health care professional about the best option for you.\n\nClick the link below to see the full article.

My young daughter suffers from a rare skin disease called "lichen planus"...I need to keep a close watch on her skin, especially during the cold winters here in the northeast.  Aquaphor ointment seems to work best, both for preventative measures and a quick cure.  It's great all over the body, including lips.  A slight "schmear" in the nostrils also helps keep dry sinuses moist.

Unfortunately there is NO psoriasis cure but there are psoriasis treatments. It is that simple. Anybody claiming to have a psoriasis cure is misleading you and most likely after your cash. Nothing you do causes psoriasis, it is also that simple. A psoriasis diet will not magically cure your psoriasis, neither will steroids or powerful vitamin derivative type drugs that alter your immune system. We have created this page explicitly to answer this single question as we receive many hundreds of emails each month asking us for a psoriasis cure.\n\nHere is a site you can get all your information from.. very informative!!!\nhttp://www.psoriasiscafe.org/psoriasis-drugs.htm\n\nAlso: Right from the can, Crisco is a big secret among Hospitals as a highly effective moisturizer. Hospitals even use it to treat psoriasis and eczema.\n\nGood luck

Go to a dermitoligist as soon as possible. You could go to a drug store and ask the pharmisist but I sugest going to a dermitologist. \nGood luck

True as you cannot cure psoriasis, but you can reduce the effects of it. See if you're having a mild/moderate or a serrrriously severe one. If the former, just hop in2 a pharmacy and get a pharmacist to give u some emmolient. If you are having the severe one, u really have to just follow the treatment the doc prescribed but do tell him what's bothering you.

I was able to cure my eczema naturally with many different kinds of herbs, including python bile to cure my eczema secondary infections. Another practical method is very hot water in a pail.\n\nI did my colon cleanse. \nI did my kidney cleanse.  \nI did my liver flushes.\n\nThe worst culprit was my liver and gall bladder. 170++ 1cm stones and counting after 5 liver flushes.\n\nI found out the true cause of my eczema. Toxemia and Vicarious elimination. Because my liver could not filter my blood properly and could not release the precious bile because it was stuck up with so many many stones.  My blood was "dirty" or toxic, my body chose my skin to eliminate the toxicity.\n\nhttp://www.eczemacure.info/article/articleview/62/1/9\n\nRead my whole story with pictures for proof from the beginning (just 20 pages, 10 minutes).\n\nEczema is cureable. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise. I got well. You can too. This is my full story. For Free!\n\nhttp://www.eczemacure.info
