Eczema Skin
Eczema: Should I avoid exposing skin treated with corticosteroid cream to direct sunlight?
I've heard that if you use corticosteroid cream on your skin for eczema, you shouldn't expose the skin to sunlight/daylight. Is this true? Two people now have told me to only use corticosteroid cream at night to avoid light exposure. Any insights here?
Actually,it does matter when you use corticosteroids because the use causes de-pigmentation and thinning of your skin.If you use them and expose youtrself to sunlight,your skin will lack protection from the ultraviolet rays of the sun(since the melanocytes are inhibited by the corticosteroid)and you get a lot of damage-this is especially true in people of African descent.Prolonged use of steroids can therefore predispose you toskin cancer as well as Cushing's syndrome etc.
So limit your use of them,and never use during the day and also,use a sunscreen and moisturiser in the daytime to protect your skin from its effects.
Treatment For Eczema Skin Problems
I wanted to talk to you about treatment for eczema skin problems that you can use to fix this problem. There are a number of people that suffer from this particular skin problem, but don't have the first clue what it is or what it is called. Basically you'll get these rough skin patches that are red, itchy and are quite irritated. The real problem for a lot of people is that it is quite difficult to cure. Some people go for years with this on their face because they just can't figure out how to fix it. It's also quite embarrassing if you have it on your face because it has almost a contagious look to it. I'm going to talk to you about treatment for eczema skin problems. I think the number one solution on the market are skin creams and believe me, I tried them all. Since your skin is dried out, a moisturizer is often the solution. Even the creams that are market toward eczema are really just strong moisturizer. When I tried these they never really worked for me. Sometimes it would get rid of the irritating aspects of the skin, but I still experienced the visual symptoms. I want to show you about the treatment for eczema skin problems that you can use to help. Taking a topical approach with creams is a very shallow type of solution. If you look to heal your body, so it will produce healthy skin, you'll find a much better solution. Eating more essential fatty acids is the real key to solving this problem because these are the nutrients that allow your body to produce the right hormones for skin health.
