go to the doctor and ask him if he would reccomend CETAPHIL Non-Commedogenic. If he doesn't go to your local pharmacy and get over the counter Aveeno lotion.

i've had exema on my knees for a couple of years, and sorry, but there is no cure for it. but if you talk to a dermatologist, they will give you prescription cream that will keep it from itching and from hurting. strong lotion usually works pretty well for a little while, but it doesn't help completely.

Ouch! I'm sorry, that really sucks. I have eczema, too. I use Protopic (I think it's prescription, though). Elidel works well too.
What you might want to try if you just need to stop the hurting or whatever - put vaseline, or petroleum jelly on your fingers and put a pair of gloves on and just leave them on.
You might also try smearing your hands with vaseline (or if you get Protopic, which I highly reccomend) at night before you go to sleep and wearing gloves to bed. It'll help it sink in a little better.
Also, Marilyn Miglin cosmetics has a "Tissue Cream" that I use on my dry lips at night - it's a little on the expensive side, but it's GREAT for fast fixes. You can use it on pretty much any part of your body that's dry. I use it mostly on my lips, but it tastes pretty bad, so only at night.
There isn't really a fast cure for eczema - I reccomend going to a dermatologist and getting a prescription for an ointment that might help you. I used to have it attack my hands and couldn't move them without my knuckles cracking.
If you end up going to a doctor, mention Cutivate, Protpic, and Elidel.
I hope this helps!
