Would y'all be so kind as to suggest protocols or remedies for
eczema for my 75 year old dad? I just got off the phone with him
and apparently he is taking a 2nd round of some type steroid for
this problem (of which I had no idea he had until just now). He
says he has "spots/patches" on his arms, torso, legs, and the
clincher.... says it is a solid patch from knee to ankle on right
leg and it looks like his leg is rotting off! I told him to start
orally taking the CS I've given him (an oz. or 2 every couple hours)
and to apply some CS to the places he can reach with a cotton ball
or gauze pad until I could find some other alternatives that might
be better. He lives about 2 hours away, but I can take supplies to
him as I'll be off work from this Thursday thru next Tuesday (and
will also be offline then). I have MSM powder and DMSO, but wasn't
sure the best way to proceed.
I apologize in advance to those of you getting this twice - I'm
sending this request to both the CS and the DMSO list. Thanks in
advance for your usual helpful advice!
