Eczema Not Itch
My 3.5 mth has pinkish dry skin on sides of stomach, doc said no itch=not eczema, just "dry". Any experience?
He (the baby) doesn't seem to be bothered by it though.
The dryness does not appear anywhere else, just on the left and right side of his stomach.
Does warming oil (Johnson's baby oil/warming oil) have anything to do with it? I don't use soap while bathing, just water, for fear of worsening it.
Anyone has this experience with their children?
My son went through that, too, as a baby - they always told me that it was an unspecified rash. I got so tired of hearing that, I felt like screaming!
Eucerin was what they recommended and I have to say - it worked like a charm!
But, my son still has problems with his skin, off and on, and they STILLl just say that he has sensitive skin!!! argh!!!!
Eczema on Hands - 3 Easy Steps to Avoid Hand Eczema
The presence of hand eczema invariably leads to much discomfort, frustration not to mention embarrassment. As someone who grew up with eczema on the hands and managed to clear it up, I fully understand the stress it can cause but also know that there are methods to keep it at bay and prevent it altogether. Following are a few effective tips to prevent hand eczema.
Keep your hands clean
This is truly paramount for keeping eczema away. Dirt on the hands, however small, can get into the cracks and irritate your skin further and in some cases cause infection. This doesn't mean you have to become obsessed with washing your hands, just after using the bathroom and when you have come into contact with potential irritants such as dust, ink, photocopier toner, pollen and spicy foods. Remember to moisturize your hands after washing which leads on to the next point.
Keeping your hands well moisturized
This is also key in keeping eczema and itching at bay. Dry skin can be one of the top reasons that cause itchy skin which then leads to scratching the skin and eczema. Every time you wash your hands, remember to give them a little moisture with your skin cream that does not contain perfumes and colors. Try to carry a little portable container of your lotion to use when you are away from home. You will really notice the difference in the health of your skin.
Don't pick the skin on your hands
This is, I'm sure you know, one of the top reasons for eczema to be perpetrated. Most eczema sufferers with eczema on hands find it excruciatingly difficult not to pick the skin when it is in the state of healing. When the skin is removed it exposes the more sensitive skin underneath and causes the skin to become irritated. Try to train yourself not to pick and keep it in the forefront of your mind every day and you will soon find that the skin heals when it is given the opportunity.
These are just a few steps for beginning your road to clear and itch-free hands. There are also other extremely effective steps to keep your eczema on hands away for good. To access the full guide to getting rid of eczema, continue to Eczema Natural Cure.
