Thanks. But my eczema is now induced by abuse to topical steroids cream. Stop using it and the body went crazy since too dependent on the steroids.

No to steroids! It will help immediately but lead to bigger issue longer term.

Yes I do, you can check my selling thread at Garage Sales subforum; https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=3925263&hl=

I can guide you on what suits you better there since its more sales related.

well u can use this Ezerra cream, it is sold in our local pharmacy shop. i know it states there is for infant / baby use. but it helps reduce itchiness at night , well it works for me, i am 32 yrs this year n i have been suffering from eczema for the past few years (especially on my hands, i have to wrap my hands with bandages every night before i sleep, else i will end up scratching it at night n bleed the next morning)

well if u can afford a more expensive brand, i recommend u to use physiogel brands.

As title, any lotion recommendations  for dry skin or eczema?

Any supplement?

i have eczema my whole life since i was a baby and now im 28. even till today if i dont take care of it, it will flair up again.
the fastest way to make it go away is this elomet ointment(steroid ointment). if its really bad get steroid jab at ur butt(last resort and cant take too many)
go see skin doctor also, get their opinions. good luck.

This shouldn't be applied continuously for more than a week as told by (several) docs. It caused skin becomes thin. Not sure how true though.

Please don't spread wrong info. Topical application of steroid will not cause big size/fat. BIg size/fat is caused IF ONE INGEST STEROID over a long time. If you don't believe what I said, you are welcome to ask any doctor/skin doctor that question.
Topical application of steroid will cause thining of the area applied, rash, patches of pale skin in the long run.

Agreed. Real aloe vera is the best deal. rclxms.gif

looks huge

how much is it in 'rm'
*
About RM25/tube. Was considering this or Out of Africa pure and unrefined shea butter with vanilla flavor (pack of 3). Out of Africa is much more cost economical as it cost only RM40 for 3 tubes.

WHY
*
Could be because of Aloin. However, for topical application I have never experience any itchiness. For consumption, I soak the deskin aloe vera for 10 minutes before blending into the juice.

For those who uses aloe vera as mask, here is a simple receipt to boost youe aloe vera effectiveness.
1/5-1/4 aloe vera leaf
1/4 Cucumber with skin
1/2-1 red/orange tomato
1 tsp extra Virgin olive oil
1 tsp virgin coconut oil

Add the above to a blender, blend it and pour into a bowl and you are good to go.
