Eczema Back Of Hand

How can i prevent my hands from eczema?
had it 2 times during the winter and want to get rid of it so it dosen't come back again any tips?
The best thing to do is to focus on treating the underlying cause of the eczema and minimize the flare ups by:
- bathing using warm, not hot, water and a very mid soap
- using a cream or petroleum jelly based moisturizer on wet skin after bathing or washing hands.
- moisturize throughout the day as the need arises. Avoid using lotions as they tend to dry out the skin
- pat excess water from skin after moisturizing as rubbing irritates the skin
- wear cotton clothing
- avoid the use of detergents, fabric softeners and dryer sheets with perfumes and/or dyes
There's a really great article on this website about how one woman with severe eczema was finally able to beat it: http://www.beateczema.com/?hop=4safetynow
