I'm thirteen years old, using my mother's account to ask this question. I've had excema since I was very very young, since age 8 or 9. My father and my brother had it but their excema eventually went away. Mine didn't. And it got even worst after I turned ten and moved to a new state. Severe circular rashes oozing liquid began to appear on my arms, back and legs and even on my breasts . The medicine doctors prescribed to me here such as cortizone/elidel but they didn't do anything to help, only causing stretch marks. I eventually went to India to get treatment and with time, the circular rashes became inactive but didn't go away. Doctors have tried everything and are frustrated. I'm currently on a natural medicine that does something to my immune system that's slowly making it better. I'm really fed up, I've tried oils, vaseline, atopicclear, etc. But it's really affecting my life. I'm continuously teased at school and I cannot wear shorts/capris/short-sleeved shirts/skirts etc.
