Avatar n tn yeh i agree , how bout eczema ? irritation to your deodorants etc. go see a doctor you might need some eczema ointment (ointment better than cream ) try to avoid E45 ..
Avatar n tn Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin. For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone or desonide), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide). Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Moisturizing is one of the most important self-care treatments for sufferers of eczema.
Avatar m tn My only concern is that the raised skin appeared farther up on the base of the shaft rather than the area where my penis and skin folds meet which is where the original eczema was diagnosed. Also,the raised skin is different in appearance from the other areas of eczema. I may be overeacting. I will see if it gets better over the next few days.
Avatar n tn Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema. Psoriasis is a long-term (chronic) skin problem that causes skin cells to grow too quickly, resulting in thick, white, silvery, or red patches of skin. It is useful to apply a hand cream that offers barrier protection and moisturizing effect. Try to limit exposure of cold and wind to the hand. For exact diagnosis and treatment see a dermatologist. Hope it helps. Best luck and regards!
768015 tn?1333652075 I'm about 22 weeks preggo and I have never had skin issues or dry skin. For the past few weeks I have these rash things on my skins and I have it on my arm. It looks like eczema and itches like crazy. If I itch to much it bleeds. Is this normal? What will make it go away. Not only is it annoying but it looks awful.
Avatar n tn Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Use good quality moisturizers to prevent moisture loss from the skin. If still the symptoms do not improve then pls get a clinical examination done by a dermatologist.Skin biopsy will help in confirming a diagnosis. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing and if you have any additional queries.Kind regards.
Avatar m tn Hello, I can understand your concern but from the symptoms definitely eczema is an important possibility as it often presents with red, itchy, dry, flaky skin. Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema. Allergic reaction can occur to strong soaps, Solvents, chemicals, certain foods, food additives, plants, metals, cosmetics, even urine and faeces of some animals (dust mites). I suggest you to get it examined from a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis.

Avatar n tn I've had eczema my entire life and it's NEVER been as bad as it is now.

I've had perscription steroid cremes every type of lotion out there. And all my dermato wants to do is use the same cremes. I NEED RELIEF!! Does anyone know a natural way to ease the eczema pain?

976032 tn?1250298928 I would suggest you to get eczema,scabies and fungal infections ruled out.Scabies is an infestation of the skin with the Sarcoptes scabiei mite. It is characterized by intense itching, usually at night and by small insect-type bites lesions on the skin. Diagnosis of scabies is made by scraping the skin and viewing the material under a microscope to see the characteristic mite or eggs. Eczema is a form of chronic dermatitis (rash).Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema.
1337810 tn?1333807530 I'm not an expert but my 2yr old son has eczema. he had it as an infant so I changed our clothes detergent to a hypo-allergenic or sensitive one as well as his nappy wipes. when he was 1 I gradually introduced normal soaps & detergents. he was fine for a few mths but then it came back worse. I now only use hypo-allergenic detergent & use skin cream during summer as it flares up during the hotter period.

Avatar m tn I have problem. When I get stressed or hungery, my skin becomes dry and wrinkeled. after I get full and relaxed, my skin looks more natural and oily soft. I work and go to college, so I can't stay away of being hungery or stressed, because I spent hours in work and collge with full of stress. is there any medicine for this or is this normal. I am 26 years old, and I look older than that. this condition started 3 years ago, but now it is increasing.
Avatar m tn It kinda does sound like eczema to me, I used to get the same dry patches of skin with cuts that itched and burned on the sides of my pointer fingers and I went to the doctor and he perscribed me some medicine for eczema, since then I havent had an issue.

371848 tn?1206207834 the one on my chest doesnt and the one on my leg only itched very little and for like a day or two.. Is is possible for eczema to not itch or burn??? could it be skin cancer and I was just mis-diagnosed???? Any input???
Avatar m tn Now what I am curious about is that when she had eczema herpeticum, it was quite bad on her right arm, few spots on her face. The rest of her skin totally cleared up from eczema. It actually went quite soft to touch which is not normal for her skin at all. She is very sore normally. Now that the viral infection has clearde up my daughter's eczema has returned as well. What could be the reason for that? I would be very grateful if somebody could point me in the right direction.
