eczema

Avatar f tn It could still be acne on your back with a few on the chest now. Another possibility is eczema which has little sores. It would be wise to see your doctor for a diagnosis though. We use two different products--- Aveeno Eczema Ointment bought at most drug stores and then this other that is a lotion that is anti itch. Not sure if this would increase acne on the back/shoulder area. Perhaps you could use a cleaning wipe like stridex or any brand and then the lotion over it.
Avatar n tn If so that same medication will help for the herpes on the finger if indeed that is what is going on. did you have eczema flaring up on your hands/fingers recently? Since you are allergic to bandaids - keep the finger covered with something else like a guaze pad and some non-latex tape.

Avatar n tn my son has odd lines on his back, mostly horizontal about 2" long, a cluster of them on his lower back. They almost look like cuts, but are not painful. Any idea what they are? He's 14 yrs. old.

Avatar f tn My family has eczema from my mom kids down to her grand kids. My son has it really bad. He takes a bath with Dove sensitive soap. The doctor prescribed him a prescription for lotions and creams. In between baths I use Aveeno. I wash his hair in free and clear medicated shampoo. My son is 8yrs old had since he been born. My neices also have it. I do not use any scented products on him at all not even to wash his clothes. He wears medicated deodorant.
495402 tn?1220617403 Looks like I've got eczema on the back of my head and my upper neck, my doctor told me yesterday that it's most likely a side effect from the Hep C medication, which is all well and good but how to I get rid of it. Where it's on my scalp, under my hair, I can't put any type of ointment on it. Last night my boyfriend put some of his eczema salve on my neck and it did seem to stop the itching for a little while.
Avatar n tn I came across this quite by accident. Not a cure but giving me relief as I've had this condition on hands n feet for years. Had been putting Vicks on kids heels when they had coughs and discovered itch dying in hands. After 3 days there is just a redness under the flaky skin and remaining blisters are not itchy. I'm hoping they go away without the scratching and puss n infection this time! Hope that's of help to u fellow sufferers!
Avatar f tn I am now 50 and have noticed the skin on the back of my hands has become really thin & wrinkly. When I bump them, they bleed very easily. Is there anything I can do to improve my hands?
Avatar f tn I dont think i need anything stronger then what is sold over the counter considering its only on my upper back. The itching only comes when my back is exposed to the sun for a long period of time. My fear is that when it is treated and the spots do go away, will they come back? i live in miami florida and it is rather hard to keep my back out of the sun. Of course i will take precautionary care so this wont happen, but is there maybe an allergy pill i can take?
Avatar m tn it was just a few minutes, after i ejaculated i noticed condom was almost half off (probably cause of not full erection) . I have a patch of red eczema on the back of my penis shaft which was exposed. The eczema is def red, but there arent any major cracks or fissures. But its irritated. Im sure some vaginal fluid got on there on some point. Its red, but there are no major fissures or cracks. Im totally freaking out.
Avatar n tn it is actually on my back). I found a photo on a rash photo search on the internet which is attached here. It hurts and doesn't itch. It isn't herpes simplex; my doctor just had me get a blood test for this and it was negative. Besides, I've never heard of herpes simplex causing a rash on a persons back and nowhere else. What might this be?
384896 tn?1335294331 Well, does it look like tiny zits? red ones? Cause it could be baby acne which goes away on it's own and don't pop them... Her pours are working on their own, this happens to all kids at some point before their 1. If it was exzema it's be patches of dry and flakey stuff. I believe you probably know what it lookd like though, but really sounds like acne. You can put some Eucerin Cream/Lotion on it.
784419 tn?1236261756 Eczema can be traced back to what you eat most of the time. This is especially true for kids. For adults you have to look at the detergents you are using, along with moisturizer. The most important thing is not scratching and to keep applying moisturizer. It can be hard to find one that agrees with your skin. Just after shower apply a liberal coat of a natural moisturizer like coconut oil.
Avatar f tn I realise that my eczema gets worse when i get my allergies, it starts with the skin around my mouth getting gradually itchy, sometimes with vesicle fomation on my lips, and the next day my eczema gets worse and my mouth would look darker than usual. Am on mild daily anti-histamines as prescribed by a dermatologist and am using a hydrocortisone cream for the eczema around my lips. I would like to know about the connection between my skin allergies and the eczema.
Avatar n tn I was wondering if it could be shingles. Doctor says it is eczema but I have 2 different types of break-outs.
Avatar n tn That's exactly how my eczema started. I had patches on one eye after about 3 months of moving to Los Angeles. (Is it the dryness? Dust?) And then, it turned so horribly bad, I saw three doctors. The second one gave me steroids, it went away insanely quick, and then came back, worse than it was before. The third one gave me Elidel. It's not a steroid, and it works. There is still a little eczema on and around my eye, but I can live with it (though I hate it.

Avatar n tn I can scrub the tops off the bumps with a skin scrubbing pad but they are back in two days. I may have contracted them at a health spa a few years back. I have looked at photos of athletes foot and it does not match. What could be a diagnosis and treatment.
Avatar m tn Iv had a very bad rash on my chest and down the center of my back for almost a year now. iv tryed everything to get rid of it including changing my detergent and soap. it itches nonstop and iv tryed ever kind of cream I could think of to try and make it go away. It gets really bad at night and when im workin in the heat.The docters gave me steroid shots which where not affective. Also they gave me benadryl which doesnt do anything either.I am desperate for some suggestions.
