Question by seeker: What are some methods that you’ve tried for scalp eczema and they worked?
I have the sort of itch where you can’t help but to scratch and that often causes me to lose hair in small patches. Especially in the winter time. I feel like I’ve tried everything but maybe there’s something that I haven’t. Any and all honest answers will be appreciated.

The only thing that has helped me over the counter is neutrogena t-gel. It is a tar coal shampoo. If that doesn’t help you should go see a dermatologist to get a prescription shampoo which is what I had to do. I have had SEVERE eczema my whole life. I know how itchy it is and it’s really terrible that they haven’t come up with a cure yet.

The main cause of eczema is overreaction of the immune system. Identifying certain foods, chemicals, etc can be very helpful in battling this disease. I try to avoid soy and milk products which trigger my flare-ups.
After using number of prescription drugs I’ve turned to the natural treatments.
Now I use herbal remedies from serenaskin.com, which aim at the root of the disease – the immune system, and are steroid-free.
After about 2 weeks of using ointment and spray my skin and scalp have been cleared up and now I just continue with anti-eczema extract, which controls the immune system. My skin has been clear for months now.
It is the only treatment I have found that provides me complete relief when I use it as directed.

Try using rosemary essential oils on her scalp. Massage it into your scalp and let it soak in there for a few minutes before washing it off.
It’s great for reducing inflamed eczema, and the calming smell helps you relax. Eczema symptoms have a tendency to worsen with stress.
