Dealing with Eczema

It's a skin condition characterized by dryness, redness, and itching. I recently experienced this in my eye area and it has since cleared up. Watch the video to see how I dealt with it, and please share your own advice in the comments section.

I have it how long have you had it? Because it should start from childhood and if you just got it it might not be ezcema

I have eczema too. It's on my fingers, arms, back, and a little bit on my legs. When I first when to the doctor they told me it was genetic and can pop up when ever. It didn't used to be this bad and is annoying because I am a college student and have a lot of stress, but putting on my medicated cream and keeping my skin moisturized does help.

I have eczema and have tried nearly everything... treatment like this is temporary!! Im currently trying chinese herbal treatment which claims to clear it in 3 weeks!!

Many eczema sufferers have gluten intolerance that often times leads to psoriasis and eczema. There is specific testing that can determine if this is the case. Getting to the cause is always better that just treating the symptoms. Sometimes an allergy to makeup, or other skin products can also be a causative factor.

@FallAutumnFall True, hydrocortisone cream in general thins skin. Over-the-counter creams can contain about 1% of hydrocortisone, but prescription creams contain much more, which puts you at a greater risk for skin-thinning.

@Lindsay1581 cortizone can thin your skin too tho...

[Lindsay1581]

They say not to use those steroid creams that much because it thins your skin. I can't imagine putting any around my eyes - a place that has thin skin as it is. I had severe eczema on my hands for years and tried all those prescription creams and lotions, and the eczema always came back. Last year, I found Cortizone 10's Eczema cream (with restora) and it has practically CURED my eczema. Look up the reviews online.

I had no idea that I had eczema until I saw this video. I thought I had severe dry skin around my eyes. I tried very expensive eye serum and cream. No wonder none of them worked. I will call a dermatologist . Thank you for sharing your experience.

@supersupersuperable It's okay girl. It acually helped a little knowing an actual person is faced with this problem to instead of my docter saying," Oh! Well there are a lot of people who have the same thing you do." Lol. It sucks, and its extremely imbarassing. :|
