Eczema Treatment Care

I have Eczema and I have tried only a few things outside of the medicine the doctors prescribe(which dont work) to relieve the itching I stopped taking the meds drom the doctor and want to know if there are any other people that suufer as I do ,and what they can suggest?

Question by roxanneleahx: Is there any home remedies to clear up eczema in a few days?
I have eczema on my arms, inside upper legs and neck. It used to be a lot worse but it has gradually gotten better, however in the past few weeks it has gotten slightly worse again, especially on my upper legs which are red and inflamed. I am going on holiday on Saturday and need a quick home remedy which will at least slightly clear up these patches. I’m not hoping for it to go away completely, I just want to be a bit less self concious wearing a bikini.

There is no “home” remedy. But there are some not so expensive things you can get in the drug store. Either ask for a cortisone cream (the types you get in drug stores just have low doses) or try using Bepanthen (working ingredient: Dexpanthenol)

I have mild eczema on my feet that is quite bothersome. I don’t think it’s bad enough to warrant prescription medication and I don’t feel like seeing a doctor, so does anyone have a helpful home remedy?

I have eczema on my arms (right near my shoulders), Anyways, I am looking for some home remedies that will relieve the irritation and the itchiness. For you guys who are going to say “Go see a doctor”, I cant go see a doctor, I am unemployed, and I dont have any health insurance, Plus I am 6000 dollars in debt already.

I’ve had eczema all my life and never really know how to treat it. It’s starting to get really bad. Any body have any ideas on how to treat it?
