600721 tn?1229100572 My doctor and I are pretty sure that I have vaginal eczema. My boyfriend and I haven't had sex in over a month and we'd like to at least do something, even if it isn't full intercourse. I'm nervous about what it could do to me. Does anyone know if "self-pleasing" or foreplay will cause any harm? I've looked up vaginal eczema, but mostly all I have found are adds for herbal remedies and explanations of what it is (which I could figure out on my own.
Avatar m tn s red, watery and bumpy patches. Fingertip eczema causes numbness, stiffness and burning in the fingers. Cracked and dry fingertips often result. After fingertip eczema appears, the skin begins to peel off as it heals and continues peeling until all damaged skin falls off of the finger. This can continue with the same finger or may move from one finger or hand to another. While there is no cure for the condition, it can be managed.
Avatar n tn Reason I ask is that I know that having a new baby causes much stress and major changes in routine and schedules, and sometimes results in mommy not taking as good care of herself then she is used to (possibly holding your urine longer, eating less, sleeping less, more caffeine, less water etc). Make it a habit to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day and see if it changes. It could also just be stress related.

Avatar n tn I have had eczema and dry skin since I was a child and it has been largely controlled. I don't know what my current situation is but my face has been getting more red. The redness also seems to stand, at times, in stark contrast to patchy, blanched areas of white around my eyes. The skin is smooth to the touch and not bumpy, just red with white patches. It's really annoying and causes me to be extremely self-conscious. Any idea?
Avatar m tn m not circumcised) about 2 to 3 mm. and a little bit of a rash on the side of my penis around the joint of my leg and parts. we got tested for, std's and it came out negative, we waited to have sex to see if the little cuts would go away and they do, but as soon as we're done and i clean they're back again. i started using lotion to see if it was just dry skin but doesn't seem like it helps a lot.
Avatar n tn Yes, what you described is quite typical for hand eczema. Possible causes are allergens and irritants you get in contact with either professionally (for example: different chemicals in variety of industries, materials used in construction/remodeling business, metals, etc.) or as a part of your personal lifestyle habits (for example cosmetics you use, nickel containing jewelry, etc.). For best therapeutical approach, you should determine what the cause is first.
Avatar n tn I did some research and asked my Dermatologist and found out that it was Dyshidrotic Eczema. I use lotions to try and soften it, but no matter how many times i apply it, it never seems to have much of an affect. I've been told my my Dermatologist that i need to use fragrant free stuff and i use Gold Bond Lotion with aloe. It seems to be the only thing that helps somewhat. The doctor gave me a topical cream, Halobetasol Propionate.

Avatar n tn In particular, eczema is a form of chronic dermatitis. Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema and this can occur to strong soaps, solvents, chemicals, certain foods, food additives, plants, metals, or cosmetics. Psoriasis commonly causes red scaly patches to appear on the skin. Plaques frequently occur on the skin of the elbows and knees or on the extensor aspect of the joint. It is important to keep the area clean and dry. Wash several times with fresh water.

Avatar m tn I've had ED since my early 40's. Every remedy they tried worked for a few months and then stopped working. These included yohimbine, testosterone injections, Viagra (never worked at all), and direct penile injections. The last worked really great for about a year but even that stopped working. I gave up about 10 years ago. I still have a strong libido and can ejaculate several times a week, just no erections. Has anything new been developed since then?
Avatar f tn I'm a 19 year old female, and have had reoccurring eczema on my elbow creases and neck for the past few months. My GP told me the most likely cause is lactose, so I am now avoiding eating dairy products (for almost 2 weeks now). I have eczema on my eyelids which I tend to scratch when I sleep, I have been putting Sigmacort cream on it but it doesn't help. Is lactose causing the eczema on my eyelids? Is there a short-term fix to the eczema on my eyelids?
Avatar n tn Hello, The symptoms are due to dyshidrotic eczema. Eczema is a form of chronic dermatitis (rash).Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema. Wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps. For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g.
Avatar n tn I have been dealing with itching in the anus and around the base of my penis and scrotum for about 4 years now. A dermatologist prescribed Protopic, but I am concerned about using it long term in light of its connection to Lymphoma. Prior to that a family doctor prescribed Nystantin cream, however, which I am back to using now. However, the skin in the scrotum area is thickening over time, and unless I am reapplying religiously twice EVERY day, I have incredible bouts of itching in both areas.
Avatar f tn Hi, My mum has suffered from an extreme form of skin irritation now for over a decade, and no doctor can give her an answer to what it is, or cure for it. The irritation causes the skin on the palm of her hands to itch, peel, be very red and very sore to the touch. It started off as a small patch in the centre of her palm, but has now spread to her whole hand (on the underside). She has also tried herbal remedies, but nothing has ever really helped.
Avatar m tn Hello, Firstly,It can be due to vit B deficiency.Take some vitamin B complex for some days and see if your symptoms improve. Secondly,it can be due to atopic dermatitis or eczema("Atopic" refers to a group of diseases where there is often an inherited tendency to develop other allergic conditions, such as asthma and hay fever). Cheilitis(Inflammation of the skin on and around the lips)is often seen in atopic dermatitis.Diagnosed by bld test like RAST.
