My best friend got eczema in college. She would work out and feel itchy then take a shower and she said it felt like acid being poured on her when she took a shower. Every time that she would sweat the same thing happened. She stopped working out and gained weight while trying to find a diagnosis. A few years later she got it and after trial and error found a treatment that worked for her. Unfortunately she gained 150lbs and now she is working hard to lose it. Eczema can really mess with your quality of life especially when you don’t know what is going on.
This!!! The showering just right and parting dry and wearing the right pajamas and keeping my room the right temperature and finding the right soaps and lotions and cutting out foods and still dealing with it. Ugh. Sleeping alone because if the itchiness. Ugh. Itās the worst. Had it for years. Keeping it at bay is my part time job.
My 4 year daughterās eczema is in the crease of her arms. I have tried so many different brands of creams/ointments. What is your favorite that you would recommend?
Nice Desperate Housewives reference
I have eczema on my hands. I find your advice of wearing gloves when doing wet work, and always moisturize are very helpful.
Adorable Dr. Dray!! I Loved It!! Love and Blessings Always!!ššš
Sounds like the intro to a Hallmark fallšholiday special!
It’s from the early 00’s show Desperate Housewives.

sleeping with severe psoriasis was hell not the same but similar side effects
My god yes! Eczema in my ear canals. The itching is awful at night when I’m less distracted.
I had it my ears as a kid too! Thankfully I outgrew that but holy cow I feel your pain!
How? Now I need to know more!
When it’s very bad I’m taking antihistamins for the itchiness. Helps so much!
My baby is 4months and I have no idea how to help his eczema
