Relieve Eczema - 5 tips to stay comfortable

1.    For itchiness, apply cool, damp compresses.   A cool compress is a cloth dipped in cold water that is wrung out and applied directly to the skin that itches. When first placed on the skin, the itching or pain may become more intense, however this soon subsides.  This will help relieve inflammation and itching.  Try a thin layer of petroleum jelly onto the skin before applying the cool compress so that you moisturize the skin too.  

2.    Don't scratch -- scratching can cause scarring, infection, increased pigmentation, and thickening of the skin. Instead, gently pat the skin with your fingers (as opposed to the palm of your hand) as this is more effective.

3.  Avoid hot water showers and baths if your skin is inflamed.  Reduce the temperature of your shower or bath from hot to warm or even cool.   Also, avoid overheated rooms as this can aggravate irritated skin.

4.   Avoid soaps and detergents.  This is a big one!  Not enough can be said about the harsh chemicals found especially in soaps and detergents, and if you have eczema this will definitely make it worse. Normal soap is alkaline and can further dry out your skin. Soap and detergent-based shampoos should be avoided, and instead soap and shampoo substitutes should be used, or even try a more natural aqua based cream instead of soap.  (Even though it seems a bit strange to wash with a moisturizing cream, it is very beneficial).  Bath oils can also be helpful, but once again seek out a natural product.  Always try the more natural remedies for eczema.

5.   Moisturizing your skin is one of the easiest and most important measures in preventing itching and scratching, as well as reducing eczema flare-ups. Be careful to avoid eczema creams and  moisturizers that contain perfumes and preservatives which can irritate the skin.  Moisturizers should be applied at least twice a day all over the skin.  The best time to apply the moisturizer is straight after a shower or bath to help seal in the moisture from bathing.

Short cold showers are a relief if you

suffer from eczema

and other allergic conditions which itch the skin.

It seems the cold water, besides invigorating the senses,

reduces blood flow in the skin and in turn reduces the

dreadful, persistent itch.
