Can eczema be caused by stress?

Question by Betty: Can eczema be caused by stress?
As I child I suffered with eczema until I was 12 years old. I don’t mean to sound cold about this next part, but it is fact. My dad died when I was 12, and that is when it went away. (He was not the easiest person in the world to live with).

I am now in my 30’s, in a stressful relationship, and the eczema has returned. Soaps and perfumes irritate it further.

I am just wondering if there is any kind of a link between eczema and stress.

Answer by MEh
yes it can. i have had several friends with eczema and that was one contributing cause.

believe it or not but the main cause of it is your diet. for some reason your body breakouts from somethings you’re eating.

Question by Dee B: What skin creme do you suggest to treat hand eczema? Could it be caused from hospital gloves?
I have had chronic eczema on 2 parts of my hand for years. My left hand is not affected.I have tried prescribed cremes and ontments and nothing seems to help. What creme/ ointment do you recommend for this condition? What is the difference between: Clotrimazole and betamethasone dipropiate1%/ 0.05, betamethasone valerate 0.1%, and clobetasol propionate0.05% ( Which I recently got)? What is better, ointment or cremes? Could this be some type of allergy?

It could be an allergic reaction to the gloves. Are they latex? Did you have an eczema problem before you started using the gloves? That is definitely something to look into.

You can try cortisone cream, or aloe vera to help soothe, but that doesnt address what is causing the eczema.

If the gloves are not the cause, then you should definitely look into your eczema being a result of candida in the system – or just look here at some of the things that may be causing it: http://eczema.skyeherbals.com/causes_of_eczema.html

My mother had horrible eczema on her hands for as long as i can remember and nothing that was given to her over the counter or by doctors ever addressed what was actually causing the problem. I would definitely recommend looking into holistics to help you heal.

Can surgery remove thin-skin caused by using steroid cream to treat eczema?

Alan — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 09:47:58 +0000

Question by the king7: Can surgery remove thin-skin caused by using steroid cream to treat eczema?
I have a friend who used a steroid cream for a long time to treat her eczema. Now she has very thin-skin that half wraps around both inner thighs that looks almost like stretch marks. We know there’s not creams that will help the thin skin but…

Is it possible to have the thin-skin surgically removed and if so…

- what type of doctor handles this type of surgery?
-what might this type of surgery be called?
-would she be left with an even bigger scar from the surgery?

Best answer:

Answer by Amanda C
i don’t know if the surgery could be done but a dermatologist (skin doctor) would do the procedure, It would most likely be a skin graft type of procedure, they would need to get skin from someone else to put on top of the thin shin (usually they take it from the butt, or lower legs). About the scars i don’t reall know

how do you get rid of dark spots caused by eczema?

Alan — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 10:38:30 +0000

I was diagnosed with eczema about one or two yrs ago, don’t really remember exactly when right now, and ever since I’ve been struggling with this skin condition. It all started in my hands and now I see this in the inner parts of my arms and around the back of my shoulders. I sometimes get it on the back of my legs too. All the itching (sp) and dryness leaves dark spots in my body and I hate it. How can I get rid of the dark spots…will they go away on their own?

How to get rid of skin discoloration caused by eczema?

Alan — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 16:58:56 +0000

I have severe eczema, and after an outbreak clears up I am left with very bad discoloration (the area turns very pale and white). Now I have extremely splotchy looking skin. I moisturize every day and I am very healthy. If my legs look this horrible at the age of 14, I am afraid of what they will look like when I am older! What can I do to fix this?
