Year round dry skin and eczema, please help!?

foods to look out for in the diet which can trigger eczema or make it worse;

eggs, milk, nuts, seeds, seeded fruits (berries), bananas, citrus fruits (oranges/lemons),

pork (bacon, ham etc), shellfish, msg -flavor enhancer found in those tasty packaged quick foods. Processed meats in general.

everyone is different though you may have at least one or two of these.

moderate intake of caffeine and alcohol - preferably no alcohol.

drinking goats milk is thougth to help eczema.

stay away from all animal furr, keep animals off your bed , out your main rooms and do not touch them. hoover and damp dust regularly. wash soft bedding weekly at 60 degrees with sensitive soap powder/comfort and wash any blankets monthly on high temperature. dust mites will be reduced.

short warm showers on a regular basis. for Lotion use aveeno with oatmeal. can try calendula cream from a health store. get fresh air daily. antihstamine for night time itching , pirition are effective.

The cause of eczema is overreaction of the immune system. Identifying certain foods, chemicals, etc can be very helpful in battling this disease. I try to avoid milk products which trigger my flare-ups.

After using number of prescription drugs I've turned to the natural treatments.

Now I use SerenaSkin herbal remedies.

After about 2 weeks of using ointment and spray my skin has been cleared up, and I continue with eczema extract, which controls the immune system. My skin has been clear for months.

It is the only treatment I have found that provides me complete relief when I use it as directed.

Well you might not have it to the extent that I had it...but I had something called Eczema (a very dry skin condition) got it when I was about 14...It made me want to itch it & looked so dry all the time. I would scratch it raw! So I went to the dr. he said it was eczema & gave me a cream for it. I used the creak every day tried not to scratch it & always made sure to lotion very well...I only use coca butter lotions & Palmers Cocoa Butter is the best brand...but even with the cream you haev to use lotion a lot. So it went away & it will come back if I dont keep it moisurized for sure after showers & being in the sun & water! Good luck!

Individuals try many treatments for eczema to relieve the itch. They use otc remedies they can get in a drugstore. These people use prescription medications they get from their doctors. They even try an alternate eczema treatment, such as herbs. Learn here https://tr.im/0oquR

Still, one study found that many people are not satisfied with the effectiveness of their medications.

This has been known for decades, too. see www.web-rad-train.org online or the ACHRE report where it's written as two thirds of double strand DNA breaks occur , indirect with photons high energy etc... or 2/3 of dsDNA is damaged within 0.0000000001mS, (not enough 0's, but you get the point) see online side effects of xrays, and if you don't think they are not harmful,you are wrong. it's well documented about childhood leukemias, cancers and early radiation exposures and latent effects, though I think the effects are sooner than later. I have a radiation induced meningioma, and it's front R parasagittal, not symptom producing, but I have a cataract, too, and most of the CT scans and repeated unnecessary chest xrays and contrasted MRIs were in the past 7-8 years.

My skin sores began 7 months post MRI and they knew my kidney function was 45 at the time and NEVER informed me, only when I got the fda alert in Dec did I get tested for creatinine, but still was never told, and it had been as low as 39 and NO one told me.
