Eczema can be frustrating and very uncomfortable; however, it is manageable.<br />
Read these 9 helpful pointers on what you can do to deal with it.<br />
Are you or someone else in<br />
your household affected by<br />
eczema? The problem could<br />
be that you don’t have the<br />
proper knowledge to manage<br />
it. Fortunately, this article was written with<br />
you in mind.<br />
1<br />
AVOID HOT SHOWERS<br />
Lukewarm showers are the way<br />
to go if you have eczema. Also, use a<br />
gentle cleanser and don’t rub too much.<br />
When you finish your shower, gently<br />
pat your skin dry with a soft towel.<br />
Enjoy a warm bath to soothe your skin.<br />
The water needs to be tepid. Sprinkle<br />
some colloidal oatmeal or baking soda<br />
in your bath. This helps soothe the skin.<br />
Another option is to add a half cup of<br />
bleach to your standard 40-gallon bath as<br />
this is thought to help eliminate bacteria<br />
on your skin.<br />
2<br />
DO NOT SCRATCH YOUR SKIN<br />
You will likely feel very itchy. If you<br />
decide to scratch, you’re going to find<br />
yourself scratching even more. Scratching<br />
can also cause serious damage to the skin<br />
or even lead to an infection. Moisturize as<br />
often as possible and use a cold<br />
compress which can relieve symptoms.<br />
