Hi,
Yes there is a cure for eczema, the treatment is as followes
Local steroid creams are the main treatment for the itching in eczema. Use the steroid cream as prescribed by the doctor. After the rash settles down, use it at least once daily for another 2 weeks. It can be used whenever the itching or rash develops.
Good hydration of the skin followed by a lubricating cream is the main way to prevent flare-ups of eczema. Water-soaked skin is much less itchy. The eczematous skin is very sensitive to soaps, therefore avoid soaps as much as possible, especially during flare-ups. Alternatively, use a mild, moisturizing soap.
The skin is generally dry in eczema. After a good bath, the skin feels good due to hydration. The moisture in the skin can be retained by applying a layer of lubricating cream to the entire skin while it is damp. Apply it daily after the steroid cream has been applied to the itchy areas. Avoid applying any ointments or petroleum jelly because they block the sweat glands, increase the itching, and worsen the rash, especially in warm weather. Also, soap is needed to wash them off, which can aggravate the problem.
Keep the fingernails cut short as the scratching with nails will perpetuate the vicious cycle of itching. Frequent hand washing will avoid any super-infection of the eczema.
Enjoy Life

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.

I am having a heck of a time but mine is stress related. In my case, my doctor says if I stop stressing, my eczema will go away. Translation-no cure. I tend to think you are the same way since you have allergies. Good question!!!

Listen carefully there is a cream called Rescue Remedy it is a herbal cream made by Bach, I am in Australia and its available here (not sure where you are) it maybe called Flower Remedy try looking on the net if your pharmacist hasn't heard of it, but it does work no word of a lie.

Go on a all raw food diet and clean the toxins out of your body. Then stay an a healthy diet and avoid anything that causes breakouts.

I have heard that said. I think it can be controlled but certain triggers can cause out-breaks. Emotional stress causes me to get patches of it, occasionally.

my daughter has eczema around her nose, eyes and mouth-when she breaks out it's bad- her dr prescribes ELIDEL.
It really works for her and she feels better and looks better right away.

I'm sure the doc. has something that can treat it. Might not be able to cure it.
