Hi guys, just to share with you all.
Been suffering from eczema & psoriasis for the past 28 years of my life ever since I was a baby. It was hereditary but I got it bad.
I could not sweat (rashes will pop up) or go into an A/C room for too long (too dry). All my joints will be scarred with oozing wounds and also on my face (above the eyes, moustache area & ear).
Have gone to many specialists western & Chinese (tried snake skin with herbs etc.)and Indian as well. Even went on a diet of non meat (only fish & vege) for a year but none of it helps. Tried taking EPO, detox, donating blood, drinking lots of juices but still it persisted.
It got so bad I had to take steroid injections to cool things down. Even had to take antihistamines every night but the effect wore out eventually.
About two years ago, things started to improve dramatically and here is what I did and am still doing now till today.
- Himalaya Purim
Didn't believe in this 'natural' product BS as I've tried everything on the market & nothing worked. Was recommended by my pharmacist GF now wife. After 3 months, I could see that it helped a lot
- Eubos Shower Lotion & Cream (Light Green one for Sensitive Skin)
Tried everything on the market: Cetaphil, Cocoa Butter, ABC oil stuff, Vaseline but all those caused a burning sensation on my wounds & made it worse except for this fella
- Kiehls
Used the Ultra Facial range from Cleanser, Toner & Moisturiser with Burt Bee's lip balm
-
For those pesky wounds
- Exercise & sweating loads & being in the sun
This is quite contradictory as I know the rashes will worsen with sweat. But the more I sweat coupled with the above steps, it got better. I believe the sweat it's another way to detox.
I won't claim this is the defacto cure for eczema but it certainly helped me to regain my confidence and most importantly my quality of life.
I scratched less at nights (I even wore gloves as I scratched unconsciously to wake up to a bloody mattress in the morning). I've only taken antihistamine once in this 2 years.
The itch is not severe as previously as I rarely scratch it till its bloody.
Hope this post helps someone out.
