If you really have eczema, you can assist your immune system to heal your skin naturally by avoiding using soap (shampoo, detergent, etc.). Instead, try to find a colloidal oatmeal containing soap-free wash for body and face and a shampoo containing the same ingredient. Aveeno or Equate both make those type of products. The other thing is to reduce your exposure to hot water. That means short (5 mins max) showers and no baths. Soap and hot water combine to remove sebum from the pores of the skin and deep into the sebaceous glands, inhibiting sebum production causing dryness and itchiness. Sebaceous glands are controlled by hormones and the immune system, which wheatgrass appears to strengthen naturally. Apply the Dr Wheatgrass Recovery Cream twice daily or more often if necessary. As well as strengthening the skin’s immunity, biological actives from the wheatgrass are absorbed into the body and in time, the patient’s immune status becomes stronger. Please see the website for more information or ask Dr. Reynolds a question regarding your specific symptoms.
cetaphil.don’t expect fragrance though.
its called rosacea you really should go see a dermatologist right away
Try Colloidal Oatmeal.
you should ask the pharmacist first.
you have given little info about your skin condition eczema is flaky and often sore and red if weeping and open you could have dermitsis or phsorasis im a beauty therpaist and the usually fing coal tar a cood remedy you can get it form your GP or try using aromatherapy oils like tee tree and lavender just add a few drops in your bath water and remember to use plenty of moistriser through out the day this will help hydrate the skin as eczema dries out the skin. if you hve conditions like phsorasis then you will suffer with it all your life and theres no cure but stress and diet are a big factor for flare ups try to maintain a healthy lifestyle and see your gp
Good luck
don’t shower with hot water and remember to moisturize
