What part of the human body does eczema affect?

The outside surface of the skin is the most noticeable. It is most usually seen on the arms, legs, stomach, and face, although it can affect any place where there is skin! Interestingly, many people with eczema also have asthma. They seem to go hand-in-hand, but not always of course. Because there seems to be a connection between the two, there may very well be other effects in the body with eczema also.

How do you cure eczema the natural way?

While evening primrose oil has had some benefit in treating eczema in some studies, the large dose (12 caps/day) and cost per cap make this an expensive treatment. Probably the most cost-effective and well-documented supplement for eczema has been fish oil caps. Studies have used this in a range of 5-10 caps per day, which may be taken split up into two doses daily of 5 caps with food. Enteric-coated formulations may lessen the belching sometimes seen with this supplement. Do not pay top price for brand name manufacturers.

How do you get rid of cracks on your skin from eczema and do?

Keep Using the CreamMy aunt has eczema. You need to keep on using the cream. ANSWERSince I was 5 my hands & feet have cracked from Eczema sometimes deep enough to bleed. Eventually the cracks on my feet got so deep and so calloused, no amount of cream would ever take them completely away. With that being said there are ways to relieve the pain from the cracks, add moisture, get some relief & a little bit of healing.

For my feet, we have always coated them with something like Bag Balm (an udder cream used on cow's tets) you can find it at most stores now a days or on the internet, the one I use is in a square, green, metal tin with a cow on the side). After you've got them good & coated you need to cover them with something that will create a sauna-type environment, thus Saran wrap is very handy.....wrap it round & round till all of it is covered & there are no spaces, cracks or gaps for air to get in or the bag-balom to get out, secure all of this in place with some masking tape, then put some socks over top, sleep in this contraption, cut it off with scissors in the morning. After several nights of this you will notice a big improvement. For your hands you can simply wear cotton gloves or socks over the bag balm or go out and buy some plastic (like food service) gloves, & wear those under the cotton gloves or socks. If I just have a small crack on like the tip of my finger or a toe, I put a glob of Bag Balm on a band-aid & cover the crack right before going to bed. Recently I have replaced the Bag Balm with a prescription from my doctor, when I have painful, bleeding cracks I apply this and usually in one or two nights it's completely healed! You can contact me if you would like the name of that prescription.

What type of body soap should i use if i have eczema?

Don't use a moisturizing soap because they will dry your skin out and damage the skin barrier. Use soap-free liquid cleansers like- Spectro Jel or Spectro Derm, Cetaphil. A good web site is www.skincareguide.ca/eczema_guide/index.html click on the Eczema Patients Guide

You should not use soaps that contain perfumes, dyes, lanolins, moisturizers, oils, etc.....our dermatologist recommends 2 & only 2: Dove Free & Gentle or Basis.....personally I have used Basis for more than 15 years & I love it.....you can buy it at Walmart or even Walgreens (it's a little more expensive there), it's near the Neutrogena Products, not the regular soaps. A good portion of the Old testament takes place in or around Egypt. Egypt also plays a major role in the life of many Bible people from Moses and Joseph to Jesus. Where in the world is Egypt? Egypt is situated in the northeast corner of the Africa. A large river called the River Nile flows through the country into the Mediterranean Sea. The Nile enters Egypt from the Sudan and flows north for about 1545 km (about 960 m) to the sea. Where did the Ancient Egyptians live? The Ancient Egyptians lived along the banks of the river Nile in Egypt. Farmers first settled in Egypt along the River Nile around 5000 B.C. Where do most people in Egypt live today? About 95 % of Egypt's population still live in the Nile valley (the area next to the river). Why is the River Nile important to the Egyptians today and in the past? Egypt is mainly made up of hot deserts and receives little rainfall. Without the River Nile, the area would be entirely desert. What is meant by "the gift of the Nile"? All of Egypt depended on the Nile for water, food and transportation. The Nile also provided the ancient Egyptians with fertile land which helped them to grow their crops and raise their animals.

Before modern dams were built the river Nile would flood each year coating the land on either side of the river with thick back mud. This mud was ideal for growing crops on.

Is it safe for females to take a bleach bath?

Yes. contrary to popular opinion, the vagina is rather "self sealing" and the bleach water should not get in. The only way for this to happen is to manually open the vaginal opening, and even then it is not likely to penetrate without a nozzle.

Otherwise, the cleansing action of the bleach will destroy contaminating germs and bacteria on the skin. The "recipe" for a bleach bath is 1/4 cup of bleach to a whole, full tub of water. More than this amount can irritate the skin and tender private parts.

Can carrots completely remove eczema?

It can help some people who don't have very severe eczema, but it's not a permanent solution. To "completely remove" and prevent from reoccurring, you'd have to change your diet to include carrots or find out whatever is causing the skin irritation.

Personally, I have eczema and carrots don't have a huge impact on it.

Finding the cause of the skin irritation and staying away works way better.
