Apply the cream everyday for to your face, and eat healthy for the inside of your body. What did your doctor say you have? Did he say you have ecema

I did some research when my doctor diagnosed me with excema. I have had it my entire life. there are different kinds of it... I hope the information I've found will help!

- Eczema is believed to be a type of allergic reaction.
- Eczema is common in people with asthma, hay fever, and other allergies.
- Adults whose hands or feet are often exposed to irritating substances may often have eczema on those areas.

Some possible triggers of ECZEMA:
- Cold, dry weather
- Hot, humid weather, woolen clothing
- Animal dander, house dust, tobacco smoke, emotional stress and diet

Symptoms of ECZEMA
- Itching, dryness of the skin and a red, raised rash.
- Tiny blisters may appear which break and crust over (these lesions may be prone to infection).
- In children, eczema appears most often on the face, scalp, buttocks, thighs, and torso.
- In adults, eczema most commonly affects the neck, inside the elbows, and backs of the knees.

Treatment of ECZEMA
- Eczema is a chronic disease that cannot be cured. Long intervals without skin eruptions may be possible with general dry skin care and medical treatment if necessary.
- Brief daily baths or showers with lukewarm water (not hot) should be taken and a mild soap should be used. (Specific products may be recommended by a physician or pharmacist.)
- Hot tubs and long, hot showers should be avoided.
- After bathing, the skin should be patted dry and a moisturizer applied.
- A moisturizer should be applied at least twice a day all year round. Multiple daily applications may be necessary during periods of active disease. Petroleum jelly should not be used. (Specific products may be recommended by a physician or pharmacist.)
- A cool-mist humidifier may be used in the bedroom. The humidifier should be kept clean at all times.
- Clothing and bedding should be washed in a mild detergent.
- For children and infants, keep their nails trimmed short to minimize damage from scratching.
- Topical coal tar preparations, oral antihistamines and topical corticosteroids (short term) may all be used to treat the symptoms of the eczema rash without a prescription. (Specific products may be recommended by a physician or pharmacist.)
- Stronger medications may be prescribed and oral corticosteroids may be prescribed as a last resort.

My kids have eczema and a cream called Eucerin help a lot.
Get the stuff that is in a jar. It is thick and you only need a little bit at a time. I am telling you this stuff is wonderful for an over the counter cream.

No wonder the doctor's cream didn't work. That's because you didn't put it on every day. If you want something to work, you have to be determined and stay consistent to whatever you're doing.
