Eczema Relief

Eczema is skin that is chronically red and itchy. It can be so itchy that scratching makes it worse and the skin develops secondary infections. While it is difficult to identify the causes of eczema, certain triggers might cause eczema flare ups,  like specific products, allergic reactions, and stress.

Eczema can happen to anyone, from babies to the elderly. Red, patchy skin can itch like crazy. Of course, in the process of trying to relieve the itch, the skin can be further irritated. The result is raw skin, that swells, has little red bumps, can be scaly and tough, and might even have fluid oozing out. 

Skin issues like that can take over your life. It’s constantly hurting, embarrassing to look at, and trying to find solutions can be frustrating.

There are so many possible solutions for eczema. Benadryl, cortisone creams, moisturizing, even taking a diluted bleach bath! In fact, there are so many options it can truly become overwhelming. Trying every single option without relief can quickly become agonizing. 

However, two key things can help alleviate symptoms of eczema: washing with a gentle soap using warm (not hot) water, and moisturizing dry skin to reduce flare ups.
