Severe Eczema Treatment
Severe eczema?
I've had severe eczema since I was born (going on 23 years) and it hasn't cleared up at all. Its starting to get worse since its summer and harder becuase I feel that I can't wear shorts and tank tops out, I'm very self conscious, on top of that my skin is so thin (from all the cortisone creams/oints) that I have stretch marks on my arms, lower abdomen, and thighs but I'm not THAT heavy .
I've tried a million and one things to no avail, I was just wondering if anyone had any hidden secrets or tips to help me out.
I've tried:
-a dermatologist
-UV treatment
-many creams (hydrocortisone, elocom, fucidin, a new mixture a pharmacist recommended: betaderm, menthol and lidocaine (which is the best so far, too bad I only started about a year ago), protopic and more
-homeopath/naturopath
-acupuncture
-doak oil baths
Any suggestions!?
Maybe a few remedies for strech marks if you know any.
Hello there. A year ago I wouldn't even dare go out of the house my face was so horrible with the thick crust of dried up ooze. Then I discovered Champori anti-eczema herbal cream and spray and - thank God! - it worked like magic: my skin got back to normal in just 2.5 weeks and has stayed normal for the last 15 months!! I recommend to all people with eczema to try it for themselves. It's a homemade remedy and It works better than prescribed medications.
Best,
Bernadette
Eczema Treatment Not Difficult to Be Done
Skin is exposed to many pathogens and harmful climatic changes; therefore this vital part of the body often suffers from diseases. Eczema is a common skin disease which affects people irrespective of race, caste, creed and nationality. The skin affected by Eczema becomes red; there is persistent itching and dryness over it. In severity of the disease flaking, bleeding, blistering, crusting and cracking of skin can be there. Generally, after healing eczema does not leave any scar on skin.
eczema is a kind of dermatitis whose classification till yet is not done accurately. Nevertheless, there are various types of Eczema namely atopic eczema, contact dermatitis, Xerotic eczema, Sebohrrheic dermatitis, dyhidrosis, discoid eczema, venous eczema, dermatis herptiformis, and neurodermatis. There are various reasons for which a particular type of eczema appears on the skin. Generally, pathogens, parasites, allergy, and many physio-psycho factors like hypertension, depression can also cause eczema.
Usually no biopsy is required for the diagnosis of eczema; doctor starts his treatment on the basis of appearance of the skin, intensity of itching and delicacy of eczema affected part of the body. Before starting eczema treatment, a good dermatologist always wants to get knowledge about dietary habits and sensitiveness to allergies of the patient. Any history of eczema in the family is also given proper consideration. This provides him a good insight to reach at a particular diagnosis. However, whenever it becomes difficult to diagnose root cause of the disease, biopsy is done by cutting a small part of affected skin and observing it in laboratory.
Treatment of eczema follows a general pattern. The eczema affected skin becomes dry, so maximum efforts are diverted towards providing it moisture. The regular use of non-scented creams or lotions provides moisture to the skin and reduces itching effect of eczema. This also provides necessary moisture to cells and tissues of the skin to recover from the disease. These creams could also constitute non prescription creams. The basic thing which should be followed in eczema treatment is don't let the skin to dry up. Substances which dry up the skin should be strictly avoided. Soaps, shampoos, and detergent come under this category. Putting eczema affected skin under shower of fresh and clean water also helps. While taking bath adding emollient bath oils also provide moisture to the skin. After taking shower, apply moisturizer on the affected area, this can help in retention of moisture for a long duration. Thick coat of moisturizer should be applied so that skin may not dry up again.
To reduce itching dermatologist generally prescribes antihistamine medication. For treatment of eczema in severe state, skin specialist recommends corticosteroid based ointments. Some topical and oral antibiotic can also be prescribed. Prevention is always better than cure so avoid synthetic detergent based bathing bars or liquids. Use fragrance free moisturizer. Avoid taking bath in hot water, however warm water can be used.
