i have Eczema below my eye brows and on the upper side of my right elbow. I have seen doctors and they have prescribed Hydro-cortisone of different stengths, the redness and flakyness goes away however it comes back. Over summer i had a good 2 months where i had no sign of eczema. Now that its becoming colder, the eczema has come back.

I do not use soap and other irritants, i only use qv which has a PH of 6.

im wondering if theres someone/something that can cure my eczema or if theres chemicals in everyday life that i should avoid. ie wool

thankz

i have my eczema breakout around my belly button area because i have an allergic reation to the nickle in my jeans. Is it okay and safe to get my belly button pierced? Will a piercer even pierce it if there is a rash there?

Hi i’m 16 nearly 17 and have dry skin and eczema , mainly on my face and neck, but its not bright red as you may see when you type it on google. I have small spots and my skin isn’t very soft, quite thick and hard on my neck. It is also quite dry at times and can be very itchy

I’ve heard Goats Milk is suppose to be good , I also moisturise my face two times a day.
What are types of food etc that will be good for curing eczema if not calming down.

And before you comment its definitely eczema.
Also due creams work , my face always looks shiny!

I’ve been scouring the internet for a while to find some alternative treatments for eczema since the usual medical answers have done pretty much nothing for me in the year and a half I’ve had this on my hands. I keep coming across the same two references:

* "Eczema Free Forever" by Rachel Anderson
* "Beat Eczema" by Susan Clark

The problem I have with these is that no one anywhere seems to have anything negative to say about either of these, nor does anyone describe either approach with anything more detailed than "It’s all-natural!" All the usual terms like "scam" and "hoax" that usually let me find out what disagreements are around a given topic are, in this case, utterly saturated with more sites that use a "Make Your Site Sell!" approach to drive people to buy one of these two products (usually Clark’s). There’s even a video of someone claiming to have used Clark’s method to cure his eczema, but he doesn’t give even the vaguest hint of what he DID. Similarly, there’s a Yahoo! Answer here about Clark’s method which, again, repeats the same information almost verbatim that one finds on countless sales websites for her product.

So, I have two questions along these lines:

(1) What do Clark’s and Anderson’s methods consist of, roughly? I’m not asking for a blow-by-blow detailing; I think it’s fair that they be paid for their efforts in pulling together information. But something more detailed than "natural" would be appreciated. Do they focus on dietary allergies? Do they tell you to wash your hands in apple cider vinegar and coconut oil? Do they expound on the virtues of wrestling alligators? Some kind of clue would be really helpful in deciding whether it’s worth plunking down to listen to what they have to say.

(2) Has anyone actually tried either of these methods and had it NOT work for them? I’m highly suspicious of cures that give the impression of being 100% effective, especially when they’re completely ignored (not even criticized!) by mainstream medicine. It’s suspicious to me that Anderson’s website insists that one work through "ClickBank" instead of PayPal or something well-known like that, which makes me worry that this might actually be a banking scam. So, hearing about people who bought Anderson’s or Clark’s products and found they didn’t work would comfort me that these are legitimate businesses with real information that works for some people and not others.

Thanks for any help!

This kid has eczema and has had it all his life. They say theres no sure fire cure, you just simply grow out of it. His doctor said to try Proactive.

Okay, so we’ve been battling my daughter’s eczema for a while now (she’s 4 months old). She got some prescription cream to help the rash and some medicine to take orally to help relieve itching. In less than 2 weeks, her eczema went from "severe" (doctor’s description) to completely gone. It came back 2 days ago though, and I’m trying to figure out what’s causing it. It could be coming from her grandma, b/c both of her recent outbreaks were on days when she watched her. I’m thinking perfume or something? It could be rice, b/c we had her on a rice-based formula (in addition to breastmilk) and then switched to hypoallergenic milk. We fed her rice for the first time (from a bowl) on Sunday. It could also be a number of other things, like pollen or pet dander. I just don’t know! So my Q is, if your kid has/had eczema due to rice, how quickly did your kid react to it? Also, can you get eczema from something like perfume? Thanks for any help. She has an apt. w/allergist soon.
