I heard that cortizone is skin thinning. I have had eczema since birth and i’m looking for an alternative to cortizone creams. Are there any even available? Eczema is terribly irritating :[ please help! thank you <3

you should use silcox base, it comes in a massive tub and you lather it on at night so it soaks into your skin overnight, and you could use E45 cream during the day, because cortizone thins out your skin and you will be left with very thin skin if you use it regularly, just use it for break outs..GOOD LOOK HUN!!
My 8y/o daughter has had eczema since birth also and has it everywhere, we’ve tried dozens of different meds over the years. She gets it on her face and you can’t put cortizone on your fac because of the skin thinning. The best non-cortizone medicine that has worked for her is Elidel. It is expensive about $150 a tube (about the size of a toothpaste tube). But if you have the money or the insurance it’s well worth it.
