Eczema gone crazy

My niece takes predisone for her eczema.

Have you considered the possibility of food allergy causing or contributing to your eczema? My Sister gets an eczema flareup when she eats tomatoes, for example...and there is a rash that can be caused by eating gluten called Dermatitis Herpetiformis that sometimes can be mistaken for other types of rashes if the dermatologist isn't savvy...

Take care,

Eeek! Avoid Dove! Dove is evil to my skin. Don't use organic stuff or all-natural stuff either, they're expensive and theres a much easier solution!

Hypoallergenic products! ^^

Go to Asda or your local supermarket so you have alot of choice, and look at the shower gels and body washes, but most importantly: Look at the ingrediants! Avoid Products that have an ingredients list the length of the great wall of china! And when your looking at the shower gells etc, look for the words Hypoallergenic, thats all you need, its not expensive and its not natural stuff that could produce an allergic reaction.

It sounds like you also need hypoallergenic shaving cream, foam or gell whatever you use, don't just buy it because it says "for sensitive skin" check the ingrediants and look for something hypoallergenic. =]


If, once you've changed all your products and your skin is still just as bad, don't lose hope and don't throw all your products away in a rage... Go to your doctor, show him your rash and he will give the appropriate cream or even antibiotics if you have a skin infection.

Most importantly, don't forget your not the only one who gets this, and sometimes it can make you feel so low and annatractive... This isn't so! Skin isn't everything and it changes all the time, whats more important, is you, your personality. =] Don't let it make you want to be somebody else... you should always just be yourself.
