Eczema Treatment Care

My son is three. He suffers so bad from Eczema, his face is open sores. The topical steroid cream does not work for him anymore. Please help. The doctors keep telling me to use the steroid cream, and are not concerned at all. I need some advice.

Eczema is somebody with dry skin, but the lotion can’t have a scent because if it does I get a rash on my arms. I was thinking about Jergens Ultra-Healing Moisturizer. Please help!

My sister(23) has had eczema all her life. It completely covers her legs. She used to get regular cortizone shots, but there not good for your body after years of treatments. Oatmeal doesn’t work anymore. Most creams/lotions just help with the dryness but not the itching. Anyone know of natural treatments that might help?

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 staceyN: Tiny red bumps, patchy red areas that itch behind ears and on face. Anyone know what it is?
Yesterday, I noticed the skin behind both ears felt strange and bumpy. I had someone look and they said it looked irritated – red with tiny little bumps. This morning it has spread to one side of my face and onto my neck, and it itches. These bumps are very tiny and pinkish red, causing me to look like I have hives sort of.

A friend thinks it just seems like contact dermatitis, but I’m not sure about that. I’ve had that on my hands before and it didn’t spread and was not like this. Should I go to the doctor, or will this go away on its own? Thanks.

If it’s Garnier fake tan spray , it;s probably it. Caused me an itching under my left eye, and dry patches.

Perhaps you are allergic to a hair dye. Or something. It sounds as if it is an allergic reaction to something. Maybe something you ate, like strawberries…? Summertime…

Eat lots of garlic and drink lots of green tea as it will protect you against everything. Unless you are allergic against that…

Best of luck.
