Q: Okay, I've suffered from echzma for a while now, and its spread all down my arms and legs and face. I went to the Doctor and they prescribed hydrocortisone (1 percent and 0.5 percent if that helps) and diprobase. It worked for a while but then came back. I went back, and they prescribed the same and fucibet, for an extra bad part. It worked again and then failed. It keeps coming back! It's not the soap, makeup, shower gels I use, and I dont use perfumes. Its not the washing powder either... I just don't get it. Does anyone know a treatment thats good for getting rid of echzma? I just hate the way it looks! Its all down my arms and I look all mottled. Does anyone have any remedies or advice? Thankyou. VERY. Much :)

I hear ya. I used to have wicked bad excema. I showed up on my arms, shoulders, legs, wrists, and in between my knuckles. There is a home remedy actually: Crisco. It sounds completely rediculous, I know. But it works. I mean really, what do you have to lose? My dermotologist reccommended it to me. Try Crisco everyday once to twice a day.

Good luck! I have a few more ideas if you need them!

Thanks for you help. I'll definitely be checking that one out :)
