Hi
I've got little patches of rash on my arms. They are about the size of a 50p, maybe larger. They appear like patches of ';goosebumps';, like when I'm cold, but stay permanently. Sometimes they itch.
I have tried Vaseline, E45 and hydrocortisone, and this seems to make them better, less red but not smooth, i.e. staying like goosebumps. I also have standard eczema on the underside of my elbow.
What could this be? What should I do to treat??
ThanksSkin rash - eczema? Something else? Treatment?
I have eczema and have dealt with it my whole life it is horrible. Thats usually how it starts, sometimes when i get hot and sweaty it does that and itches. Ive tried every medicine over the counter and prescription probably hundreds and ive figured out cortisone 10 works great!Skin rash - eczema? Something else? Treatment?
I treated my eczema with steroid free herbal remedies from serenaskin.com. Cream and spray cleared the skin and now i just take anti-eczema extract to prevent future flare-ups. It works for me very well and I stay clean for about 8 months. Worth a try.
You need to see a doctor for a proper diagnosis.
Go and show it to a pharmacist

Baby Eczema, a real treatment...?
My daughter is now 9 months old. She's had severe eczema since she was born. For many months we struggled with remedies that had little to no effect. It became worse and worse. Our G.P. had her try a steroid ointment, Hydro cortisone .1%. It also had little to no effect. After months of her suffering through our attempts, we took her to the Sick Kids Hospital of Toronto, Ontario. The Doctors there were amazing and within HOURS her eczema was cleared up and is still controlled to this day. What my doctor had tried was on the right road but not quite there.... what they prescribed was three short baths a day and two separate steroid ointments. Hydro cortisone at .1% for her face and Betamethisone at .05% for her body, all sealed in with a layer of Vaseline. What made the difference was the ointment versus the cream... it has to do with the water content.Now I know that many people are concerned with using the steroid ointments. I was informed that as long as there is a need for them within the system that it does not cause any problems. I only trust these doctors after speaking to MANY. So, parents, please take my experience and help your babies. I've done the field work, please reap the rewards. Now at 9 months old, she's been on the regiment for 5 months her eczema is completely controlled and she is finally starting to grow out of it. She has only one bath a day and I only do her face when she needs it, every two days or so and her back and body once a week or whenever there's irritation. I really wanted to share this info with other parents out there who are struggling with this. There were no unanswered questions I could post on though! As a side note, some doctors recommend anti-histamines at night to help with irritation and inflammation occurring over night.... tricky stuff, you don't want the wee ones becoming used to the sedation as a means to fall asleep.
I hope this information finds its way to those who need it.Baby Eczema, a real treatment...?
well, thanks! My son also has this condition. It's not as severe as your daughter's though. He has it on the creases of his arms and the top of his feet, sometimes.. Also, under his neck where moisture and heat build up.. I was told to use the hydrocortisone, too.. It is kind of disappearing, already, which is good.. I also noticed that heat irritates his skin, but I guess I didn't think about my perfume!Baby Eczema, a real treatment...?
Little three year old girl has also responded much better to the ointment than the cream. Its still all steroids though and the search for the right food, bedding, detergents etc goes on. We are using the sensitive laundry detergent, sensitive first baby tooth paste, the bedding has been changed to all breathable mattress protectors doonas etc. - its tricky - but gosh its so awful to see how much pain they are in. My eldest girl covers herself in sorbelene (vitE cream) after a shower each day and does exercise that doesn't involve sweating - and limits her sugar intake. She has it in control.
However sorbelene hurts the three year old.
Glad to hear you have some success!!! (-:
Sick Kids is fantastic. My grandparents were doctors there and were involved in amazing things. I'm glad things worked out so well for you and your daughter.
apply honey it work for my niece
Zyrtec isn't that bad and helps retard the migration of eosinophils, thus lowering the risk of asthma and other allergies by reducing inflammation (first link - research article).
Have you tried baths with plain bath salts (like Dead Sea salts)? Those baths seem to help my son's eczema. Certainly there is plenty of evidence that both softened water or bleach baths are helpful, just the bleach baths need further studies and you need the right directions for doing them. We compromise by offering sea salt baths.
As for the steroid treatments, yes it's steroids and yes over use is associated with thinned out skin - especially the ones by prescription. But as a biochemist I will assure you that the large molecules can not travel very far beyond the local area applied and will not effect her endocrine system or liver at all, it's only local so do use them to help when it's bad. You don't want a child with a skin infection, babies and children have been known to scratch down to blood vessels and bone when sleeping because of the itch of infection.
OH yeah, does she also have a reaction when she's very emotional? My youngest does, I can see it move on his skin, totally weird.

My daughter is 10 months old and she has bad eczema is aveeno soothing bath treatment good?
Wal-mart used to carry an all natural brand called tender times..I haven't seen it for years..probably because it worked too good. The brand you have now is the next best solution. I also use on my son a warm bath with 1 cup of baking soda, followed by Curel lotion.My daughter is 10 months old and she has bad eczema is aveeno soothing bath treatment good?
my son has it to he is 14months old I use tgl its shampoo for ur hair but please be very careful not to get in her eyes it will help my son is better and also us bagbalm it works belive me but aveeno is good. try using dy free laundry soap like tide goodluck if like u can e-mail and i'll be glad to give u more help my hubsband has it also. http://www.myspace.com/jamieshyoneMy daughter is 10 months old and she has bad eczema is aveeno soothing bath treatment good?
Another option would be to use Aquaphor baby. It's expensive, but works well. A%26amp;D ointment also works well and is less expensive than Aquaphor. Both of them are basically Vaseline with some additives. My nephew has eczema and one thing that his pediatrician said was to only bathe him every other day or every three days until it got better. Water dries out skin (seems oxymoronic, but it's true), so limiting the amount of water that touches your baby's skin will help. I would lather her up with the calming cream the other post suggested or do Aquaphor for a longer stretch of time. The Aveeno bath is a good one, but I would bathe her really quickly and not very often. I'd apply the cream to her every time you change her diaper or at least twice or three times each day. I hope this helps!
It didn't help very much with my child, but try it and then apply the Eucerin calming creme. It's safe for adults and children including infants. It worked for me.
Aveeno works very well!! i use it on my 2 month old. also try the aveeno baby fragrance free daily moisture lotion!!
very
If it is a bad eczema....consult a skin specalist doctor.
My son has skin problems too and I love the aveeno. Make sure its the creamy one. Also, our doctor gave us a prescription for Eucerin cream and it works wonders. I use the Aveeno thick lotion as well, when his skin isn't as bad. The brand ';Gentle Naturals'; has a cream specifically for baby eczema, but I haven't tried it yet
My sister uses this on my 7m/o nephew and she swears by it, so I started using it on my 6y/o who has bad eczema and it is working. Give it a shot, you have nothing to lose when doing so. Hope it helps!
My sisters little girl is now 2 years old and has not seen a
recurrence of eczema in a year know.
Aveeno is a good choice of lotion and I would try
to keep her very moisturized.
yes my little girl is one and has it as well you should also try putting lotion on her as much as you can or buy some cream at your local drug store its called hydrocortisone plus it has 12 moisturizers and aloe in it it helps to calm itch and rashes so far its helping my little one :0
Yes and it's also important to keep it very moisturized with a heavier moisturizer or a cream. I used to put cream on my sons everytime I changed his diaper. It probably will get worse in the hotter months. I have a script for cortizone cream but I only use it when I really have to. You may have to ask your doc for some but use it very sparingly.
I WOULD GIVE IT A TRY!

my son had it bad i mean really bad, it would bleed all the time, so i used the white dove bar soap and it helped.camcorders

Is there a permanent cure for eczema? what is the best treatment?
Sea water is the best cure on earth. Many members of my family have had it and sea water clears it up.Is there a permanent cure for eczema? what is the best treatment?
Have you tried porridge oats in the bath? My brother had really bad excema when he was young and porridge oats worked a treat.Is there a permanent cure for eczema? what is the best treatment?
I would go to the local chemist and ask them for advice. I had eczema when i was a baby and it was bad. I didnt get it then since my parents went to the chemist and applied the cream.
Eczema is a term is used interchangeably with the medical term Atropic Dermatitis. AD is an Immune Medicated inflammation of the skin,often with a significant genetic component.There are several types with numerous manifestations,affecting the severity,location,and age of its sufferers.The treatment is symptomatic,and the avoidance of precipitating factors like intense sunshine,cosmetics,chemicals etc. Diagnosis and treatment is best provided by your MD,follow up is essential to lessen complications. There is no permanent ';cure'; because its so wide ranging,but symptoms can be treated and sometimes controlled. Much info on the web. Take care. SW FNP

How come Singapore doesn't have this kind of skin treatment for Eczema patients?
By applying acidic water on the infected skin, and drinking alkaline water to cleanse the body inner system. That Akashi Hospital from Japan has already been using that method to CURE over 20,000 eczema patients, the method has been there for 11 years. How come the National Skin Centre in Singapore is still using those stupid steroid creams?!

Information is everywhere when you look for it.
People should take charge of their own health and question EVERYTHING, including those from 'reliable' sources because large organisations have their own agenda that is not always altruistic. Then make up your own mind.
Your brother and family may need to take a good, hard look at your overall lifestyle, food/diet and home/environmental allergens, not just your drinking or bathing water. Common food allergens are dairy, wheat, citrus, certain types of meat. Environmental allergens are things like rugs, bedding (dust mites, mould), synthetic fabrics, household detergents, soap, shampoo, etc.
When I lived in England, amongst other things, I had severe rhinitis/hayfever, I shed and moulted painfully like a lizard in summer with bad rashes that often bled and weeped. It heightened after my daughter was born and I found that she was also sensitive to a host of things everyone has around the house that we all take for granted. So I had to take a radical approach by changing the way we lived and ate.
I breastfed her till she was three because of her allergies at some cost to my own health. About 50-70% of our food was organic. And we still avoid tinned or other processed food as far as possible. I don't eat meat any more, just a little fish. I'm hoping for my daughter to convert in her own time, no pressure whatsoever from me. Because I understand and still get off on the sensory pleasures of food (I'm Singaporean after all), even things that are sometimes not so good for you.
I don't believe in everything that Western medicine has to offer, though I don't throw out the baby with the bath water. Pun unintended. Doesn't gut already tell you there's something wrong with popping a pill or applying a cream that only suppresses symptoms, for as long as you pop that pill or apply that cream? Be clear of the actual role of medicine, in that it supports your body to heal itself because of its marvellous innate rejuvenating properties. It is NEVER the cure. And what after, if you don't change the conditions that caused the ailment in the first place?
We used to go to a homoeopath in London and saw a medical qigong sifu in Singapore three to four times a week for half a year. I now work in complementary health myself. I don't like the word 'alternative' to decribe ancient wisdoms much older than Western medicine that has only been around for three or four hundred years.
You could always get in touch with Kangen in Japan and have it shipped over, if you think that one thing is your only solution.
Be prepared though that that alone may not work perfectly and that you have to look at the gestalt AND root of the problem. Be prepared for the medium to longer haul, because we're not using the same quick-fix principles of Western medicine. It may also be that your brother has weaknesses in his biology that has to be handled with nutrition. There may be other environmental triggers, not just the water.
I use a water alkalinizer/ionizer for my drinking water from Kemp Trading. I believe they can convert your shower and bath as well, but I haven't used those myself.
Tel: 6272 5337
The slight downside is that I can't drink water straight from the tap any more. It tastes absolutely nasty.
It's been a number of years since we moved back to Singapore. We've had less of a reaction to commercial household products here but I'm slowly converting to more environmentally friendly ones anyway from Amway Singapore. They do a water ionizer too but can't vouch for its efficacy.

How do homeopaths explain the total lack of efficacy in treatment of eczema in their remedies here?

Eczema should be a simple treatment. Yet this little girl died because her parents only used homeopathic remedies (they were homeopaths themselves) and her eczema got so bad she contracted an opportunistic infection and DIED. They couldn't even treat the eczema much less the following infection. I'd like to hear the special pleading from these quacks that lets them still use this nonsense.How do homeopaths explain the total lack of efficacy in treatment of eczema in their remedies here?
every single method they use is empirical,without any solid research to support it.how can they treat a disease if they dont even know the pathological and molecular mechanism behind it.How do homeopaths explain the total lack of efficacy in treatment of eczema in their remedies here?
Well now the parents have been found guilty of manslaughter and face up to 25 years in jail. The baby died a horrible death.
I hope some good comes of this, like people realizing that homeopathy is preposterous quackery, it has a death toll, and alt med can become a very dangerous belief system.
The silence from homeopaths about this has been deafening.
What's the bet you get no homeopaths replying to this thread... Soul Doctor? udaya k?
Hmmm they seem to answer every other question with 'homeopathy' written in it.
This is a disgusting case which should never have happened. I hope this sets a precedent for other legal matters and forges the way for further legal action on homeopathic treatments.

Where can I get an alternative treatment to eczema in a medical facility in Tamil nadu?
why dont you try this at home first.
1. Add 1 teaspoon camphor to 1 teaspoon sandalwood paste and apply on the affected areas.
2. Rub a nutmeg (hard aromatic seed of an East Indian tree) against a smooth stone slab with a little water and make a paste. Apply to affected area.
3. Coconut oil may be applied to the portions with eczema. Carrot juice and spinach juice in combination is highly beneficial for eczema. Drink plenty of water and take fruit juices like orange.
4. Ingredients:
Instant Tea (however strong you like it)
1 Tbsp. Vinegar
1 Tbsp. Honey (made in your area is best)
Mix together with water and drink all at once.
5. Its been reported that drinking tomato juice (not the cocktail) clears up the eczema in a matter of days. If you need to, add some pepper or your favorite spice to give the juice flavor.
6. Deficiency of vitamin B6 may also cause eczema. So increase your intake of vitamin B6.
7. Evening primrose oil can also help. It contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), which is what eczema sufferers need. Try skincare products with evening primrose oil, or get GLA through your diet by eating salmon two or three times a week or by eating flaxseeds (or taking flax oil capsules), which you can buy at the health food store. In a blender or clean coffee grinder, grind enough for two tablespoons a day and sprinkle on foods like cereal or potatoes. Both salmon and flaxseeds provide omega-3 fatty acids.
8. A serving of watercress every day is said to keep eczema at bay, along with a daily drink of parsley, spinach, celery, and wheat grass.Where can I get an alternative treatment to eczema in a medical facility in Tamil nadu?
