eczema on kids skin

i went to the dermatoligst and he said i have eczama but theres pink round circles on my palms that look like ringworm and funny round spots on my fingers he said i had eczema and gave me dexamethason and fluocinonide cream0.

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!

I was wondering if it could be shingles. Doctor says it is eczema but I have 2 different types of break-outs.

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.

He gets eczema under his nose alot and my parents have been putting Chapstick Original on the skin under his nose (without my knowledge) for a while. I opened it and it smells like menthol. Fragrances break him out, so I asked them not to put it on him. They argued that they have been using it for a long time and it doesn't hurt him.

What you can do is get a KOH examination of the skin scrapings to rule out any fungal infection. Allergy tests for eczema will also help. Treatment can then be planned. It is mostly antihistaminics and steroid for eczema and antifungals for fungal infection. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor.

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.

My kids and myself suffer from eczema. Weve tried hydrocortisone all the lotions nothing helps. What else can we do?

I would get some mild eczema when on holidays by the sea along with my skin allergies, hayfever and asthma. This would normally bother me for up to 5 days an then would clear. I moved from Europe (UK) to Australia where I was hoping all my skin conditions would disappear forever, well at least my dermatologist back home was a strong believer of that. I've been in Oz, living by the beach for almost 3 months and been having bad eczema and even worse allergies...

It also looks cracked and the skin is peeling off. I also found a red, circular, itchy spot next to my thumb, on the same hand. I thought it was a fungus and asked my doctor again. She said lets try with Lamisil cream, which I used for 2 weeks, once a day...and nothing. It's still red and itchy. Is this something that could go away alone? Do I need to continue treatment with Lamisil? I can't take any medication as I am pregnant.

I also have that on my inner thighs. Sometimes i get these really knotty like bumps under my skin, and if popped they bleed. I also have that white build-up stuff in the hair follicles on my inner thighs and scrotum. (Not on my ding a ling). It is only noticable if the skin is strecthed. When i sweat it itches and my underwear becomes hella-uncomfortable. I went to the doctor and he told me it was a fungal infection. (folliculitis) He then put me on some type of antibotics.

I have been to the dermatologist 6 or 7 times. I have a skin problem on my neck where I shave and also below where I shave. It itches and gets red on and off. I have been on a number of different antibiotics. I have tried antifungals, tea tree oils, and taking vitamins. It has gotten better but it has made a crease in my neck and never goes away completely. I have taken the antibiotics which treat staph, strep, and other antibiotics such as minocycline and doxycycline.

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.

I've been diagnosed with eczema on the underside of my penis. 1% hydrocortisone seems to make it worse. What would be an alternative, milder treatment?

However, this is such a sensitive part of his body I have been very nervous about what I am doing. Any suggestions on treating eczema on this part of the body? Thanks.
