Cures For Eczema

Well, supposedly, a deficiency in fatty acids could be the culprit. I’d like to know how others found this treatment to work. I am taking flaxseed supplements currently and am hopeful and keeping my fingers crossed.

I’m 17 and I’ve got mild eczema on my arms and back. I’ve been told that I can only control it and can’t cure it. But how do I control it? I’ve recently switched from cows milk to soya (yuk!!!) but I need to gain weight somehow for my kickboxing match in 2 months. Not a great load but just a bit. I’m currently around 10 stones. I want to get to 12 stones. Oh and I run in the mornings, which may be why I can’t gain weight but I need to run and keep fit in order to keep up with the other guys. So can someone suggest a diet for me, that will help control my ezcema as well as help me gain weight, calcium and build muscle. Please I’d be really grateful if anyone could suggest something!! I’m desperate!

I have a friend who’s son is about 6 and has pretty severe eczema, she is at her wits end for treatments and always looking for suggestions. Of course she doesn’t want to over use steroid creams for specific reasons. Anyone make some recommendations for other medications or creams she can use?

Okay so this is a little long but I really don’t know what I should do and I want some advice, I don’t usually put things so big on Yahoo Answers but I wanted an outsiders opinion. I’ll give you Best Answer and all
So I’m 15 and my parents got divorced when I was 4 years old. They don’t get along. They both got married to different people when I was 8 and 9 I think. My step mum and my step dad are totally great. I’ve known my step dad for as long as I remember and my Mum often says that he’s been more of a father to me then my actual father has. I’ve always lived with my Mum. I used to visit Dad evry fortnight but since I’m older and working it doesn’t really happen like that but he moved to my suburb so he’s real close by so I go to his house after school once a week, my boyfriend comes too. Anyway, Mum and I always fight. ALWAYS! Like at least once a day. Over the pettyiest stuff, but sometimes the stuff she says really offends me. She insults my weight (I have an average BMI last time I checked), my boyfriend (who really is one of the sweetest guys you’ll ever meet), but most of all my attitude. She uses guilt and manipulation to make me feel like a terrible person. She always says things that makes my blood boil then accuses me of having no respect when I answer back. I do love her, but sometimes it feels like hate.
On the other hand, my Dad seems to be COMPLETEY opposite (sometimes I wonder if their different ideas on parenting is the reason for their divorce). I don’t think I’ve seen him really get angry at me, but I am a better kid there coz there’s so much less stress and we never have a reaon to fight. He is SO OVER THE TOP about his love; always calling me Princess etc. Sometimes if we’re watching T.V or something he would say randomly "Love you Princess". I won’t lie, it can get really bloody annoying. But overall, the only reason I don’t like going to his hous much is the mess. Mum is a neat freak so the house is always clean, but Dad is a bit lazier, and the house isn’t like super messy but I have eczema, dust, cat and dog allergies and all those things are there. I often find myself weazing when I’m over there. I’m not a hypochondriac (that’s my sister!) but sometimes I don’t really feel that great there. They also eat lots of yummy but often unhealthy food there. It’s got much better in recent years, but we still go out to dinner and stuff alot more then we do at Mums. Mum has a habit, I’m sure of it, to raise her eyebrows and say "How much crap did you eat at your fathers today?" when I walk in from Dad’s. I know it’s a habit coz she said it once when I didn’t have a bite of food!
Anyway my Dad has said for AGES how much he would love it if I came and lived with him. The things that were stopping me in the past were the fact I would miss my other family, particuarly my little sister, the mess and the food. For the first time ever I voiced these concerns to my Dad. He laughed about the food thing and said they eat normal food and go out for a treat when me and my sister come round. He also said that the mess thing can be easily fixed, and I’ll get to see my other family on the weekends, and my sister more at school.
I’ll also get to see my 19 year old step sister more often, which is a good thing coz I love her
My Dad discussed me moving in with his family and they were excited by the concept, apparently they’d been predicting when I was going to move in.
There’s alot more to it, but should I move in with Dad or stay with Mum?
