What's the best eczema cream?

Question

I keep getting a red flareup on my nose every few weeks, I presume it's eczema as it's dry and sore. I moisterise every day and still no joy. Any advice on the best and safest cream that keeps it at bay?

Answer 1

Avoid commercial moisturizers completely. These only serve to block your pores so that they can't breathe at all. The lotion itself may feel soothing, but it is doing serious damage in the process.

Get some pine tar soap in either bar or liquid form and wash the affected areas with this. Rinse with a solution of 50% apple cider vinegar and 50% water. Pat dry rather than rubbing. Additionally, ingest at least a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar every day. You can add it to your apple juice or a glass of water or make a kind of tea with it by adding it to a cup of steaming water or have a salad with apple cider vinegar and oil as the dressing. This will help work on the problem from the inside while you are working on the problem on the surface.

Ok, YOU CANNOT CURE ECZEMA but this will work without a prescription, CORTIZONE will not cure it either, but will actually over time make you skin weaker, quick fix but not that great, so hear you go. Everymorning after you wash your hands use a barrier cream(wellskin is the one i use) made with silicone, there ae others out there but this one is the best, it will coat you hands for most of the day. If you notice eczema acting up then use 'Vaseline Creamy' nothing else, its awesome, doesn't sting or anything, also not that expensive, the barrier cream is a littl more expensiz but well worth it. Trust me. This works wonders!!! I work as a chef and always my hands are in acidic juices and washing htem eall the time and i swear by this method TRY IT

My little boy had eczema on his cheeks. I was not sure what method to use but I didn't want to make my boy go through any surgery treatments at this young age. Some suggested a plastic surgeon since it was in a very visible location but our family doctor recommend this natural guide.

Best Eczema Treatment?

Answer 4

it's most likely that you're having these flair-ups due to the cold weather. The treatments for eczema are primarily to use a perfume free moisturiser or emolient such as E45 cream which you can get from your chemist. If this doesn't help then it might be worth going to your GP to talk about steroid creams. My advice would be to do this as you'll be prescribed a steroid cream of the right strength to treat your severity of eczema (and if you get the wrong strength it can cause skin changes)

You should see your GP who will prescibe a cream that is right for you, over the counter medications are ok but if you have allergic excema you could make the problem worse or even end up with scarring.

Answer 7

You could be dehydrated as skin dryness can be a sign of this so drink plenty of water. Soap can also dry your skin out so choose one which suits your skin, and the cold weather could also be causing your skin to be dry. As for eczema creams E45 or betnovate. :)

Answer 8

Very randomly and rarely, I get a flare up of ezcema on my eyelids. My doctor prescribed me a low dose hydrocortisone cream (0.5%) mixed with diprobase cream.
Does the trick every time.

On really dry skin I use Lucas paw paw lotion. Not sure if you can get it in the UK though as my aunt sends it over from Aus/NZ, but it is brilliant!
