I hate this! I've tried everything. And though my eczema is not severe anymore I have flare up where I get patchy discolored and weeping skin. It's gross. It clears up for like a year then comes right back. Now, I'm 19 and have discoloration on my hands, legs, and feet. This did nothing for me....Q.Q

I mix cetaphil lotion and body CREAM together and apply to my skin when I get out the shower and before I go to bed (throughout the day if necessary). I have had eczema since I was 3 and I am now 15. Hydrocortisone did not do anything for me. I also use a cream called protopic and it really helps my face

I've had eczema for 19 years, it's always on my legs or arms, and face, it's not severe but it's very embarrassing.

@BellaaMarlene I feel your pain. I have it all over my face. It so horrible....I think people should start a channel for exczema sufferers...preferablely by someone who suffers from it. I've tried to look for tonnes of videos but all it is are these doctors with wads of cash, not a spot of eczema telling me that a wee bit of this and its cure. I've had it for 15 years.

i had eczema from i was born, it grows in the folding part of the arm, now, it is going away, use "Cetaphil" from your local pharmacy and put it on morning and afternoon and night. this will help your skin over power the didsaese and cease to exist

sigh i have had eczema for like 7 years and i have been hospitalized numerous times. i have tried almost all home remedies that are allowed by the doctor and i have no idea what to do as they dont work. My doctor says that the next step is cyclosporin which may cause like blood cancer or something... HELP!!!!

Hydrocortisone is useless for me. It depends of course on the type of eczema and its severity. Usually it's not one cream but a whole range of medicine prescribed. I have bleeding weeping wounds on my skin, they hurt a lot...
