I have it… but when I use it my skin feel dry and tight. I would try to get a perscription face wash that will help with your ezcema and any onther facial problems. It’s also not actually water proof… Stupid thing!!!

Someone saw my sons skin and told me that sulfur supplements would help his skin but I was skeptical cause hes so young.
Also hes allergic to milk, soy, rice, fish, and malt so we have to be very careful what we give him.

I don’t think that the hamster will have a bad effect on her eczema. It is good that she washes her hands after playing with the hamster and she should keep deep conditioning creams on her skin.

Hello.

I was born with atopic dermatitis, and as a result of such have very itchy, usually inflamed, and bumpy red eyelids.

I was looking to find out as to whether or not frequent(2-3 times daily) applications of corticosteroids on my eyelids pose any risk other than that of atrophy?

I am referring to cortizone and triamcinolone acetonide corticosteroids. I have read warnings that triamcinolone can cause glaucoma if it comes into contact with the eye, but as to the eyelids it does not mention.

My old doctor told me that it was safe to use on my eyes, but I do not think he took into account at the time the frequency of my uses.

Please no answers unless you’re somewhat educated on the subject. Guesswork is whats getting me to post right now.

Thanks in advance.
