no "cure" but steroidal creams can cause less itching and scaling. try hydrocortisone cream 3 times a day for 2 weeks and then twice a day after that. if that doesn't help much, ask your doctor for a topical steroid cream. there is a drug called anbrel that supposedly helps but it also lowers your body's immune response causing a suseptibiltiy to germs and virus's. you can read about excema on medline.com and the creams on rxlist.com. there is a study that shows sea salts in your bath a few times a week can help as well as time in the sun/tanning bed a few days a week. the waters off the shore of tampa (indian shores) is reputed to have medicinal purposes that help with excema also.
try E45
.....lotion..
ask your chemist for hydrocortizone cream. it cured my eczema for a while
put your head in a bucket of water three times and bring it out twice, that way will cure anything. Its a joke, but try it anyway.
Try Hydrocortizone - it's safe even for babies. Ask a pharmacist what percent is right for your age (it goes from 0.5%). It's an over-the-counter medication.
Best idea though is to see a dermatologist - they may suggest something even better that will help you heal faster.
e 45 or cetaphil (doc prescribe those for my baby brother)
Aveeno oatmeal bath
I once had a mild case, and I got it under control, by using E45 bath oil, just a tea spoon or two in the bath water. It's better in my opinion then oilartem, as it's more like natural skin oil and doesn't stink.
Get a soothing creme from the pharmacist. Take a WARM (not hot) shower (NOT a bath) and DO NOT USE SOAP except underams and private areas unless absolutely necessary. PAT dry (don't rub) and apply the ointment. Don't use talc or scent or lotion on the affected areas.
my daughter had very bad excema and the thing that cured her within days of using it was a soap called v.e.l it is a hard water soap used in a lot of foreign sountries. i tried all the hdro creams and bath oils but this done the trick.u may b able to get it off the internet.good luck
