-what are any natural treatments i should do with my eczema and what should i do with my wrinkles.
keep in mind i dealt with this for 22 years.
There are several natural treatments of which you can use. But they whether for you is a different answer. However, I can provide some methods that my patients say work effectively for them, and they are as follows:
The first thing you should do is monitor your diet and try eating foods that might trigger any allergies. A larger percentage of People that suffer from asthma also suffer from Eczema, research has shown Eczema to be a body response to foods that trigger allergies as well. Dairy products are advised to be kept away from.
Use plenty of Moisturizer on your skin - this prevents your skin from becoming dry and itching. Get a moisterizer that is comfortable and easy to use. In the summer place your moisturizer in the fridge to keep it cool.
One cause of Eczema is an inbalance in your digestive system or your levels of acidity are too high. Taking Kelp supplements can help controll and bring down the acidity levels make prevent Eczema from occuring.
Stay away from lotion perfumes as these can irritate and cause itching on your skin. Som even cause burning to occur so keep away from them.
Vitamin E supplements are good for the skin and help assist in the bodys general healing process. Vitamin E is an essential element that the human body use to heal itself quickly. This lotion also acts as a barrier to the skins surface thus preventing it from being dry.
Another way to treat infections caused by Eczema is Neem, using this natural treatment product can help heal sores that are caused by excessive scratching on the skin. Neem is an evergreen plant that can be used as a poultice on the skin to prevent infections reoccurring.
As for treatment of wrinkles caused by steroidal creams in your undereye area, you'd have to vist a dermatologist.
Ringworm -causes, Symptoms, Treatment
Treatment of Ringworm
Ringworm, also known as “Tinea,” is an infection of the skin, characterized by a reddish to brownish raised or bumpy patch of skin that may be lighter in the center, giving the appearance of a “ring.” Contrary to its name, ringworm is not caused by a worm but by parasitic fungi (Dermatophytosis). It can exist anywhere on the body.Ringworm of the skin starts as a red, scaly patch or bump. Ringworm tends to be very itchy and uncomfortable. Over time, it may begin to look like a ring or a series of rings with raised, bumpy, scaly borders (the center is often clear).
Causes of Ringworm
Ringworm is contagious. It can be passed from one person to the next by direct skin-to-skin contact or by contact with contaminated items such as combs, unwashed clothing, and shower or pool surfaces. You can also catch ringworm from pets that carry the fungus. Cats are common carriers.
Many bacteria and fungi live on your body. Some of these are useful to you and your body. Others can multiply rapidly and form infections. Ringworm occurs when a particular type of fungus grows and multiplies anywhere on your skin, scalp, or nails.Most pediatricians do not recommend isolation of afflicted children. Covering the rash with a bandage and a layer of clothing is usually enough to prevent its spread.
What are the symptoms of ringworm
Ringworm of the skin causes itching, redness of the skin, and circular sores. The sores usually have a red edge and a clear center. Rings may form around sores.
Skin could become lighter or darker on the sides of the face, the neck, back, and chest. This is most common in teens and young adults.
Ringworm of the body shows up as a flat, round patch anywhere on the skin except for the scalp and feet. The groin is a common area of infection (groin Ringworm). As the rash gradually expands, its center clears to produce a ring. More than one patch might appear, and the patches can overlap. The area is sometimes itchy.
Diagnosis of Ringworm
Diagnosis must rule out other possible causes of the signs and symptoms, which may include eczema, psoriasis and contact dermatitis.
A microscopic examination of some lesion scrapings usually will confirm tinea infection. This is called a KOH (potassium hydroxide) preparation. Culture of the affected area, which may take weeks, may help identify the infecting organism.
Treatment of Ringworm
Imidazoles (clotrimazole or Lotrimin, miconazole or Micatin, ketoconazole or Nizoral, econazole or Spectazole, oxiconazole or Oxistat, and sulconazole or Exelderm)
Side effects from oral medications include gastrointestinal upset, rash and abnormal liver functioning. Taking other medications, such as antacid therapies for ulcer disease or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), may interfere with the absorption of these drugs. Systemic treatment: Some fungus infections do not respond well to external applications. Examples include scalp fungus and fungus of the nails. To penetrate these areas, oral medications are necessary.
