Call your local pharmacy they will be able to recommend the best thing for you to use for that. Plus, if you describe it or show them they will know exactly what it is and what you need to get for it.

Question by Doll Face: I would like some help with my Eczema?
I am 15 and I have eczema. I model so usually I have to get my pictures fixed, or put makeup on my arms. It isnt like totally noticeable, but if you stood next to me, you could tell I have it. I also do pageants and it sometimes makes me self conscience to wear dresses because of my arms. I have seen a dermatologist and my doctor, but they said I am too young to get anything done, and I just have to “deal”. But apart from not liking the way it looks, it DOES itch and my skin gets all red. If it was less itchy, I would not care about how it looks.

Are there any moisturizers that I can use in the shower, then like after the shower put on a special cream? Or anything??? I want something that will make it be as smooth as it could be. I know it won’t go away 100%, but I would like it to change at least a little.

Thanks!

Question by Kitt: How would I know if there are steroids in lotions that I use?
I want to know if the lotion I’m using (Aveeno’s Skin Relief Moisturizing Lotion with Cooling Menthol) has steroids. I have nummular eczema, so this lotion should help stop the itching, but I don’t want to risk getting yeast infection again. So I’m avoiding steroids and antibiotics/anti-bacterial stuffs right now.

I’m still on the process of getting better from my yest infection, so I don’t want to take any chances with using a lotion that may or may not have steroids on it.

SO WHAT SHOULD I LOOK OUT FOR? In the “inactive ingredients” and “active ingredients”, how would I know when there’s a steroid mixed into it?

There are no steroids in Aveeno. A lot of steroid names end in “-sone” and “-etisol”. Check the labels.

Are you sure that it’s eczema and not cradle cap? Just wondering. Aveeno oatmeal bath products really helped my little girls eczema, and they make a lotion that it equally as helpful.
