Atopic Dermatitis/eczema?
Posted by: Alan in Atopic Eczema, tags: Atopic, Dermatitis/eczema
Hello everyone,
I have these rashes along the inner thighs of my body. I recently got diagnosed with atopic dermatitis/eczema by my doctor. He prescribed be a special cream to ease the outbreak. I have been using it for 2 weeks, but it does not seem to make these rashes go away. However, I know that eczema/atopic dermatitis is not curable but treatable. I was wondering what I can do to help prevent and make these rashes go away. I am a very clean person, am not very allergic to many things, and take care of my body well.

Although eczema can occur anywhere on the skin, certainly the inner thighs are not a common area for that. Was it a dermatologist who diagnosed it for you? If not, then I’d certainly see the expert! (Of course, I’m a dermatologist, so i might be a bit prejudiced).

Maybe get a second opinion. My mom had an outbreak between her thighs like this one that was itchy and red. It turned out to be a fungus from going to the gym. An antifungal cream made it go away. She also has eczema so you could still have eczema but maybe that outbreak is a fungal infection.

Hi,
Watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxLW-HKgQ…
It shows some young kids getting treatment for Eczema in Japan. Yes it works, I tried it with a friend in California.
You can sometimes get free alkaline and acidic water by placing a wanted add on http://www.craigslist.com Ask for 8.5 PH drinking water, and usually the same machine will also make the acidic water needed to treat the eczema.
Good Luck!
