does anyone know of a home remedy to cure eczema?!
Question:
Answers:
This is also strange but I have heard rubbing Selson Blue dandruff shampoo on the infected area helps with the flaking and soreness!
Other Answers:
This might sound funny, but going to a tanning salon and doing 15 min sessions or less will clear up your eczema!

My son has eczema, and went tanning. Almost cleared up
I don't think you can cure it completely but there is a cream (sorry don't know the name) which you can get on prescription from your doctor that's quite effective. It helps a great deal so worth a visit to your GP.
Elidel is one of the scripts available. My daughter has used it and it works well on the face. On hands and feet, a "home remedy" I've heard of is something called Corona cream. It is actually a horse ointment for cracked hooves and wounds. It's 50% lanolin so it doesn't smell real good and it contains wax.It's very thick. Many drug stores carry it now. I used to use it for my kids diaper rashes, a tip given to me by a small town pharmacist in Wisconsin.
Also, I've heard that Carmex works on hands and feet..
Good luck

Try WebMD or Medscape
When my son was a baby, I took him to visit the midwife who did my prenatals, she noticed his horrible eczema, and told me to go to the health food place and buy tar, and put it all over him, and then put him in jammies that could be ruined, let him sleep, and then bathe him. She swore it would work. I did not try it, as it sounded "too alternative" for me.
Also I had an aunt who had bad eczema, or psorisis (I don't know which) and she went to the dermatologist for special tanning treatments, and it worked for her.
I've had painful eczema on my hands for 8 years. I have been though tubes and jars of prescription cremes, but nothing worked. Then I found Eucerin Calming Creme, and my eczema cleared up within two weeks. Get yourself a tube of this stuff, it REALLY works.
