Avatar n tn Hi, I've had unprotected oral sex a couple of times, and only had unprotected sex once, all within a period of about 3 months. I'm not quite sure after which rendezvous my symptoms started. Although i have been getting some symptoms which have led me to search the internet for answers before consulting my doctor, and this research has led me to believe i may have herpes.

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 n tn When topical corticosteroids do not provide relief, sometimes the doctor may consider prescribing some more potent corticosteroids for some period, in adults with may be needed for adults with eczema on the scalp, limbs, and trunk or those with chronic/ lichenified eczema. Newer two topical eczema drugs like pimecrolimus (Elidel Cream) and tacrolimus (Protopic Ointment) are reserved only for cases where corticosteroids have not been effective.
Avatar f tn I cook for him and he is in the office kitchen with me eating etc daily. Could I have caught it from him, esp if I have eczema (the eczema is not severe at all) Am pretty alone in a new town, trying to get into doctors and this is a little of a wild goose chase. So, your advice is certainly appreciated and very helpful. Thank you so much!
Avatar m tn Your wife should avoid hot water (wear gloves if she has to wash dishes), fragranced lotions, and other harsh chemicals. Also, sunlight helps to alleviate symptoms. My daughter only has symptoms in the late fall and winter months. They clear from mid-April through about mid-September or October. With that thought, vitamin D is vital to many functions of the body. Your wife might want her doctor to check her vitamin D level to make sure that it is not low.
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.
1092381 tn?1256990196 Hi, Thank you for your response. I initially believed it not to be eczema as it is uncharacteristic of the eczema I sometimes get in mild cases on my elbows and ankles i.e. itchy and flaky. I keep it constanly moisturised which helps. I will take your advice and let you know how things develop. Thanks again.
