skin condition to treat called eczema. Although you may not be able to clear
it up completely, with helpful tips such as the ones below, you can definitely
keep it in check. Continue below for helpful advice on how to go about treating
eczema.
Don't scratch, even though it will be extremely tempting. Eczema will get very
uncomfortable. However, scratching only leads to more scratching. This can harm
your skin and possibly cause an infection. When you are having symptoms, apply
a cold compress and moisturize often.
Pay attention to your hands. Because you wash them throughout the day, they can
get very dry and are prone to more eczema. If you are engaged in an activity
that involves water, like washing the dishes, wear rubber gloves. This will
help protect your skin from the water throughout the day.
The cold weather can damage your skin, particularly the skin on your hands.
When you are outside in the winter, make sure you put on a pair of gloves. In
particular, either cotton gloves or leather gloves will work the best. Stay
away from wool gloves, as they may hurt more than they will help you.
If you are getting ready to put something on your skin to moisturize it, like
an ointment or a lotion, make sure you get your skin damp first. That will help
the moisturizer do its job. It may be best to apply the product within a few
minutes of getting out the shower or the bath. Simply pat yourself dry, so that
you are not dripping wet, and then put the product on.
There are several things you can do to keep yourself from scratching your
eczema. The best thing to do is keep it covered. Loose clothing may work, or
try bandages or dressings on the afflicted area. Keep your fingernails trimmed
short, and consider wearing gloves when you go to bed to avoid scratching while
you are sleeping.
You could use modern technology to text yourself reminders to treat your skin.
Atopic dermatitis is a very common eczema form. There have been recent studies
conducted at the Harvard Medical School that shows text messaging being
successful in patients 14 and older. Patients were more likely to strictly
adhere to their treatment regimen, and it also showed in six weeks that the
symptoms had lessened. Most of these people opted to keep receiving the text
messages.
If your doctor has approved over-the-counter ointments for your eczema, make
sure you get the right kinds. You should be looking at products that are only
20% water and 80% oil. While they may feel greasier, they will lock moisture in
your skin better. Try not to use these products in areas that get sweaty.
Although eczema presently can't be cured, there are various strategies that be
used to manage it. If you have eczema on your hands, always cover them with
plastic or vinyl gloves when doing water-related chores, such as washing
dishes. If you hands tend to sweat while wearing these gloves, wear cotton
gloves under them to soak up the sweat.
Determine your individual eczema triggers. Some people find that dust mites can
cause flare-ups. Some people may break out because of the particular brand of
soap they are using. Knowing your triggers means controlling your flare-ups.
You may have to make some changes, but the relief will be worth it.
Make sure the air is not too dry in your home, especially in the rooms you
spend most of your time in. Dry air can cause break outs of eczema. If it is
the heating season or you have particularly dry air in your home, you can fix
that by putting a humidifier in those rooms.
If you have any of the many types of eczema, you should keep your fingernails
cut short. Although individuals try to refrain from scratching the patches of
dry, itchy skin, sometimes scratching is done as a reflex without conscious
though. With shortened nails, it's less likely that the dry, delicate skin will
be punctured when you scratch it.
Moisturize your skin immediately after taking a bath. Applying lotion to your
skin soon after your bath helps to lock in the moisture and prevents your skin
from drying too much. For the best results, use a intensive moisturizer that
does not have added perfumes or dyes, which can dry your skin more.
When taking a bath or shower, use only very gentle cleansers. Don't scrub too
hard. After you take a shower or a bath, pat your skin dry gently. Be sure to
moisturize all over with a natural oil such as olive oil. This will help keep
the moisture from your bath in your skin.
How you bathe is important if you suffer from eczema. For starters, stay away
from hot showers or baths; this will just irritate your skin. Use water that is
room temperature. Do not scrub your skin and stay away from scented soaps. When
you are done showering, pat your skin dry.)
