Several skin care products have been introduced to fight the effects of eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. Only a few warrant mention. Skin Zinc™ may be the most popular product on the market. Skin Zinc™ boasts the antifungal and antibacterial ingredient Zinc Pyrithione. Skin Zinc™ is available in a spray, cream, and shampoo. There has been information made available by the FDA that OTC drugs containing Pyrithione Zinc are not recognized as safe and effective ingredients for treating Eczema and/or Psoriasis. Regardless of label claims, Skin Zinc™ remains a sought after product in the marketplace. Freederm™ is a product backed by a mother’s story, many pictures, and many testimonials. Freederm™ boasts a “special” mix of 14 different ingredients that claim to make this product special. It is important to note that Freederm™ contains 1% hydrocortisone. For some time, the FDA regulated most percentages of hydrocortisone because of certain risks. Even at 1% those risks of side effects exist and therefore detract somewhat from the formula. Eczana™ is new to the market after a 9-month internal trial. NeuLife Laboratories offers a topical cream consisting of several interesting trademarked ingredients. Eczana™ includes Canadian Willowherb™ Extract and Oregon Grape Extract. Canadian Willowherb™ has a history over hundreds of years in the forest regions of Canada of being used as skin cleansers, fresheners, and soothers of skin. Clinical research has recently verified these reports further characterizing the potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory activity of Canadian Willowherb™. Canadian Willowherb™ has a principle bioactive molecule, which is called Oenothein-B. This molecule has been patented for its wide ranging bioactivity including anti-viral, antitumour, and anti-hyperandrogenic applications. Oregon Grape root has antiseptic properties. Its main use has historically been in the treatment of chronic and scaly skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. Lastly, Eczana™ has included Tea Tree Oil, which is an antiseptic, a fungicide, and a mild solvent. Combined these 3 unique ingredients have been combined to make a truly “all-natural” product for those concerned about the medicinal side effects associated with other traditional treatments.

My doctor and many sites reccomended taking a daily dose of Flaxseed Oil (add to a smoothie) and rubbing Aloe Vera gel into the area at least twice a day.\n\nNot only has this cured me of most of my eczema but it has also reduced the itching on the tiny part still to go.\n\nFlaxseed oil is often reccomended for skin conditions. It's available from health food places and some supermarkets. Keep it in fridge and use quickly though, it goes off fast like milk. \n\nAs for Aloe, get a pure aloe gel - not one in moisturiser. It's more expensive but it lasts a long time. You will find it will itch or sting when you apply it but that will ease off and generally soothe it. \n\nHowever - talk to a doctor because eczema comes in many types and some treatments will work best on some and not so good on others. Generally they will either tell you the same as me or prescribe an ointment, but be careful as those ointments often steroid based and can be harmful. Generally they won't prescribe for any longer than a few months and won't give refills because of the health dangers.\n\nHope you find a cure, coz yes it sucks!\n\n\nEDIT: A poster above stated evening primrose oil is good, yes I had forgotten that, it is very good thanks to that poster.

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).

I suffer from the problem also.  I went to a dermatologist and he prescribed elidel first which worked well for 3 months until my system became immune to it I've also tried pandel my system also became immune to it. the best thing I've found yet is St. Ives Apricot Scrub and a light moisturizer like cocoa butter

Poor thing. Hopefully the chemist is open by now. For the skin I used Aloe Vera Bio Active Gel on my kids, as well as calamine. Cool baths helped. Piriton for the itch. Not sure about the mouth, but you could try ice pops. And lots of calpol/nurofen of course. Hope he's over the worst soon. Hang on in there.

A skin care product called Noxzema works really well for me. It clears up sunburns within a day or two.\n\nAlso drink lots of water, stay hydrated. \n\nGood luck!

I am still working on this one myself- aveno oat meal baths, reguarly use a healing mosturizer (I like curel ultra healing extra strength skin hydrator) the key is to put it on before the itching starts- Ive been told not to use cortizone too much because it thins the skin- benadryl gel can be helpful- store it in the fridge so that its cold when it goes on- sarna anti-itch cream SOMETIMES helps- I also find it helpful sometimes to either apply an ice pack or wrap it in an ace bandage- Ive also been told to "pat dry" when getting out of shower/bath- avoid scratching at all costs- BELIEVE ME I KNOW HOW DIFFICULT THIS IS!!

I have the same problem, I'm going to try Cetaphil, Use a mild cleanser and a  moisturizing cream/spf15. They say drink lots of water and fruits and veggies. 5 servings per day. Make sure the make up is "non-comedogenic". Go to cetaphil.com and it'll give you more information.  They say if that doesn't work then go to a dermatolgist and get some meds for it. I'm about done with over the counter remedies, if this doesn't work then that's where I'm going.

Retinol-A (retin-A) is supposed to do something for that.  It is often in face creams.  Also, SPF-15 is good.\n\nYou can put a little turmeric (a yellow spice that makes curry yellow) into water, or even rose water (you can get that at an international grocery store) and put a bit of that under your eyes (wash it off afterwards).\n\nIf you can't actually get rid of them, there is some makeup that can cover them up fairly well.  It is a yellow stick - made like lipstick.  Yellow color hides the blue color, so that is why it works.

Try a product called Balneum in her bath.  Its really helps.  There is a product called Betnovate scalp application...useful for keeping the head eruptions under control, use E45 on her body.\nI found that cutting out dairy helped me when I was a lot younger and suffering very badly with eczema, but now I take dairy with no problems.  I dont know about the fatty acid treatment but I would be sceptical of it.  I hope you get her problems under control soon...I have been there and know how the poor mite feels...;

Last year i started getting a rash on my face which was making my skin go lighter and lighter. I began to  get very concerned about this and ended going to the hospital and getting a blood test and than being referred to a dermatologist.Who informed me that it was a mild form of exzema the doctor said that young people between the ages of 20 - 25 are more suseptiable to getting ezema espacially if they suffered from it a child. \n\nAnyway through out this period i tried every type of ointment and herbal remedy including Chinese and the thing the worked the best was a product from a Shop called (Lush) by the name of Dream Cream! Now, I swear this stuff rocks! it comes in a lotion and a face/body wash - the best part is its natural. Try it and see if it works, it worked for me and I highly recommed it.

I HAD THIS SAME THING!  ugh, its so annoying, haha.  its probably really dry skin or a harmless fungus.  what i did was use a moisturizer daily and about every other day i put on hydrocortisone (ointment for dry skin) and tolnaftate (an anti-fungal cream).  both of these you can get over the counter at your local pharmacy and are safe and effective to use.  after a month or so i still have some SLIGHT discoloring, but it is not nearly as noticable as it was before and no longer bothers me.  i also got a tan, too, which might have helped!  if this doesn't work, you will probably have to see a doctor or a dermatologist to get a stronger cream or different diagnosis.

it sounds like a form of eczema.  go get some hydrocortizone cream from the pharmacy (they sell it over the counter).  it should help it clear up.  if it doesnt go away from that, you may need a stronger dose, which you can only get to a doctor.  also, since there are little heads in it, i would suggest something with a little sulfur in it.  that will help your body learn to fight it. \nbut, it may just be an allergic reaction to the soap you are using.  stop using the soap you have, and if that doesnt work, try the above suggestions.  if you have any more questions, feel free to IM or message me.  good luck

I can't stress this enough- DERMOTALOGIST (SP)!!\n\nBefore visiting one, I had tried every acne medicine known to man and nothing worked. However, my doctor found the ABSOLUTE best, unheard of brand. You really should see one, looking at your type of skin alone they can determine what works best for you. \n\nbut if you're looking for a quick fix- Noxzema (sp) isn't bad at all!

clearisal, and washing really good with soap and water works, if not go to a dermotologist like i did and get accutane, which is pretty powerful stuff!
