whats a good way to cure eczema with just the stuff you have at home?

I have it and I hate it. My skin is extremely dry and flaky…I am allergic to anything that dries it like dust, dirt, chalk…etc. I’ve tried skin steroids prescribed my doctors but it doesn’t work. I’m considering whering gloves all day and all night…..I don’t know what to do….can someone please help me?
Does anyone know what works best to prevent skin eczema?
correction: wearing gloves…..

I’m 19 years old and have had eczema since I was roughly 15. It started just on my stomach cause of the belts I wore, and then on my arms, but that was nothing until this past year. I have it bad on my arms, stomach, half my back, upper thighs, chest, and neck. And I am also half hispanic, so I scar very easily. They aren’t raised scars or anything, but just dark marks. And they stay, for years. Lotions for dry skin don’t work, I know that. But even if I do control my eczema, the scars from it will last for a long time. Can anyone relate and possibly know any way to help me with my scars, or eczema? I’m running out of options! I feel like a leper here!

why does eczema only appear or flare up in a particular spot on the body and vary from one person to another? also what causes it to flare up?

My 4 month old has baby eczema and recently had an infection on face. doc has prescribed oilatum for the bath, eparderm and now a steroid cream. i have heard that natural yogurt can ease the itching, has anyone heard of this or anything else to help his itching as he gets very frustrated and keeps opening the scab so it is taking longer to heal?

what is the eczema skin symptoms?

I know there is no cure for eczema, however my boyfriend has it really badly this winter. He refuses to go to the doctor, i think because he doesnt trust them to actually help…long story. Anyway, are there any OTC remedies that will help with the itching, rash, etc? He just wants to take benadryl, and i keep saying to put some lotion or cortizone on it. Any all natural remedies would be great too, he’s not the biggest fan of "medicine". Any help is greatly appreciated!!!
I know he should go see a doc, his little brother died of cancer, so he hates doctors and avoids them at all costs.

Does anyone have any alternative and herbal remedies that can be used in the treatment of mild eczema on the hands?

I have eczema on the back of two of my fingers and now I’m getting it inside my elbow (where it bends). I also have a patch of it on the back of my leg. What causes it and why does it show up in such random places?
