Eczema yeast allergy
Common Questions and Answers about Eczema yeast allergy
eczema
I have gone to a GP last year and she said its not yeast infection but some kind of allergy or reaction..something like eczema (wh I dont have on other parts of my body)..the meds she gave helped temporarily with the itch but I lost my medicine when I was moving house.. and my dreadful itch returned.
I have gone to a gynae for a Pap smear and culture/vaginal swab test which have normal results for both. So it confirms that I do not have any kind of yeast or vaginal infection.
The allergist started her on allergy shots a month ago and we are hoping it will also help with her eczema. She is getting allergy shots twice a week but I was told that is not helping her yet but will next Spring.
Any recommendations on creams to help her dry skin, any changes to diet to help her eczema? Flaxseed oil? Any other suggested treatments? Her skin is so very dry and itchy right now.
If your past history is positive for eczema, the most likely cause for the rash could be eczema again. People who suffer from this disorder should avoid contact with triggering factors like soaps, cosmetics, jewelry, clothing, and detergents. Sometimes sweat, changes in temperature and psychological stress are known to trigger these episodes. So, the best way to prevent attacks is to identify those substances which you are allergic to and avoid them.
I've had eczema in my ears for 15 yrs. It is very cyclical, starting w/intense uncontrollable itching, then clear fluid leaking from skin, followed by crusting over & flaking of skin in ears that is itchy in & of itself, leading to more scratching & picking at ears. The skin in my ears gets very damaged and ratty during outbreaks. I also have swelling of the ear canal after these itch/scratch episodes that are sometimes quite painful, & Motrin helps that.

I've had allergy related eczema my entire life, and after 10 years of allergy shots my eczema is ridiculously better than it was. Now the only thing that my eczema really bothers me with is the extreme itchiness I get when I get hot or warm. I have a fan pointing at me nearly at all times at home otherwise I get uncomfortable. I get extremely irritable when hot and am prone to heat induced rage.
How do I keep cool or how to keep myself from feeling that itch.
I had had a lot of severe eczema on the heels of my hands over the years, in spite of my best efforts to use the hypoallergenic and fragrance-free products of all sorts. My doctor told me that eczema is actually one of the symptoms of Celiac Disease. She mentioned this, because I had told her that I hadn't had a severe outbreak on my hands since I stopped eating gluten and dairy products. When I say severe, I mean that I used to have it quite severely.
I'm not a doctor. has eczema history. if your rash is reddish with dry skin surrounding and perhaps sometimes blister like, it can be eczema. peeling happens when you over scratch it. can ask for corticosteroids over the counter.
Lotions without fragrance, preferably for sensitive skin will keep the dry skin comfortable (St Ive's Intensive Healing Advanced Therapy Lotion helps me a lot; cheap n good). try to keep the skin there breathable with thin cotton clothing at night.
s have told me that it might be eczema I had many ointments and creams prescribed but none have seemed to resolve the problem.
my knuckles are not itchy and red all the time, it occurs more so around winter but i am sure its not due to cold weather, i have considered that it might be stress ( as Stress causes Eczema) but then again i'm not stressed, the knuckles are dry, cracking and are very itchy,
if anyone has any ideas PLEASE post !!!
My wife suffers from eczema and is particularly affecting her palms of hands to the point that her skin is cracking. It is extremely itchy and she has sought medical attention with a dermatologist but the medication prescribed is ineffective. Anyone have this type of condition? Any alternatives?
In eczema patients respond to food triggers. Eczema can make allergy testing difficult. In people with eczema and food allergies, strictly avoiding food allergens may help reduce or, occasionally, eliminate symptoms.
The most common food triggers for eczema are eggs, milk, peanuts, soy, and wheat. Among these, eggs are probably associated the most strongly with eczema.
I would recommend that he see an allergist that specializes in eczema. Eczema frequently has an allergic cause. Treat the underlying allergy and the eczema clears up. I know some people who have had success with Allergra and Zyrtec.
My daughter only has eczema in the winter when she is not out side as much. This may also be related to a low vitamin D level. Has anyone checked his vitamin D level?
I was diagnosed with a yeast allergy about 2 years ago. I do not get yeast infections, but whenever I eat something with a high amount of yeast, my throat itches and swells, and I get a horrible sinus headache that covers my whole face. I have been having recurrent UTI's recently and want to try drinking cranberry juice. Do cranberries have yeast, or would they be okay?
I had a food allergy test and found that i was allergic to ten foods. main ones were gluten, dairy, yeast (brewers and bakers) among others. THERE IS A DIRECT CORRELATION BETWEEN THE INTESTINES AND THE SKIN.
I stopped eating all the foods I was allergic to--THE PEELING ENDED AND NEVER CAME BACK. Was this the answer? i tested it. I went back to eating the foods--the peeling began.
Previously two years ago had some kind of yeast infection or yeast allergy under my foreskin that caused redness, swelling, and scaling - was cured using Loprox.
A few weeks ago I thought it had come back, with an itchy urethra, redness, etc. and tried loprox again but still there. Could it be just irritation or does the urethral itching point to something else?
When I was 7 years old it started as an allergy then I got older it worsen and turns into wounds.I tried different skin products and medications for my eczema. I dont know if this is eczema tho, everytime in turns red then it turns into wounds. We cant afford surgeries here. Is there a clinic that offers free surgery?
