Question by michellegoesrawr@ymail.com: Do eczema flareups still occur even when not in contact with the thing you’re allergic to?
So recently I found out that I may be allergic to chicken & eggs. It’s not certain as I have not gone to the allergist to find out but every time I eat chicken it gets REALLY bad. I still have dry, cracking skin on my arms, legs, back and neck. But since I stopped eating chicken it’s not really inflamed or that bad. Is it just because I don’t moisturize? o.o Or am I missing something?

Yes. It takes up to 48 hours for the chicken to go thru your intestines. Then, the components of the chicken go into your blood. Until used up by the body. But, if you are allergic, your body had produced anti-bodies, which hang around and jump on, that is, cause inflammation, on every chicken associated molecule in your body/blood. The next time you eat chicken, the army of anti-bodies recognizes it instantly and goes to war, so you get more of reaction much faster. Does that make sense?
I would go to an allergist, immunologist, NOT a dermatologist. They think too topically. Don’t touch a chicken or an egg for a couple of weeks before the appointment.

I have eczema scars on my legs(and still do have eczema), how do I get rid of the scars?

Alan — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 10:38:46 +0000

I don’t know how to get rid of the scars. They are like purple bumps painted on my legs, so I can’t where shorts because it looks bad. And I still DO have eczema. I use bath and lotion stuff so it won’t get irritated, but I just want the eczema scars to go away. Does that scar on thing work(the one people who do the head on)? Thanks…

Question by Sam: My 6mt old has eczema,he is still nursing.How much apple cider vinegar should i drink to help his condition?
Does the apple cider vinegar that I drink have to be diluted with water?

Best answer:

Answer by Bravo
I don’t think there’s an actual limit on how much apple cider vinegar one can drink in a day. It is very nutritious and helps build a strong immune system. You just have to dilute it enough.

Normally for an adult, you want to use a solution which is 50% water and 50% apple cider vinegar.

But for baby this young, you probably want to use 20% apple cider vinegar and 80% water solution.

I am trying to join the Coast Guard. I am trying to process in Nagshead, North Carolina. The problem is I have Allergic Contact Dermatitis (slang term is eczema, though its not the same as atopic dermatitis). I did not tell my recruiter cause I know they dont grant waivers.
I read they give the smallpox vaccine at boot camp..is that true? the vaccine and eczema can cause bad side effects i heard. if i dont admit to my recruiter but then tell them right before the shot that i have eczema will i get kicked out? if i get the shot will i be ok?
Any advice would be cool and id be grateful.

If Flouride Is So Poisonous To Humans, Why Is It Still In Our Drinking Water & Toothpastes?

Alan — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 12:49:03 +0000

Most Americans are unaware of the dangers of ingesting fluoride. Most dentists, physicians and scientists are unaware of the dangers of fluoride and water fluoridation.
According to the handbook, Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products, fluoride is more poisonous than lead and just slightly less poisonous than arsenic. It is a cumulative poison that accumulates in bone over the years. According to the Physicians Desk Reference, “in hypersensitive individuals, fluorides occasionally cause skin eruptions such as atopic dermatitis, eczema, or urticaria. Gastric distress, headache, and weakness have also been reported. These hypersensitive reactions usually disappear promptly after discontinuation of the fluoride.”http://www.healthy.net/scr/article.asp?I…
So, why are they poisoning us?
Why aren’t they being SUED?
If this isn’t a reason to sue, then what is?
