I have very bad eczema on my left hand and a little on my right hand. It flares up, I treat it with Demovate Steroid Cream and it goes down after about a week and a half. Three weeks later, just as my skin has healed, it comes back. This has been happening for six months and I need something that will get rid of it.
My doctor is referring me to a Dermatologist but I was wondering if there are any natural or herbal remedies for eczema I could try or anything I could do to prevent it? It feels like my hand is on fire first, then it's SO intensly itchy I can only run ice all over my hand constantly to help it and when it goes, my skin is wrinkled and prune like, scabby where I scratch in my sleep and the skin peels away.
Please help me if you can! (link)

My little brother has eczema, and he uses Cetaphil lotion as well as a few prescription lotions (One is called Norvartis. I'm not sure about the other) My neighbor suggested Hydrolatum, and he's been trying that as well. I'm not sure if he has the same type of eczema as you do, because he can't exactly speak and tell us what it feels like, but he is always itchy. Hope this helps!
