What topical medication ( ointment or cream) is good for chronic and stubborn eczema on the hand?

I work in the hospital as a nurse. I now use the powder-free gloves. For years,I had a chronic case of eczema to my right hand on only 2 particular spots. It itches and flakes up like crazy. I have seen the dermatologist and was given an ointment but the eczema is stubborn for years. Is there any homeopathic herbal or pharmaceutical topical medications recommended? Any other suggestions?|||Hylobatizol, not sure of the spelling, it eradicated my eczema.|||I have suffered from eczema for years and have figured out a nice combo of products that have worked wonders for my skin.

|||I found that clobetasol 0.005% cream is effective because it is a super high potency corticosteroid. I apply it twice a day and eczema is manageable because it soothes the itching which is a huge relief so I won%26#039;t irritate my skin even more. I also use Eucerin lotion, dove soap I stay clear of any products with too much perfume because it becomes a nightmare for my skin and allergies. Keep your hands moisturized apply a thick of moisturizer under the gloves while your at work. I have my eczema under control now but if I get stressed or climate becomes too hot or too cold here comes a flair up just have to know your triggers.|||I am a nurse too! I used to have trouble with my hands cracking and bleeding due to the glove exposure and hand washing. I struggled with these symptoms for many years but now I use a skin oil and cream once/day and I don%26#039;t have anymore skin trouble. If you would like the website to check the products out, let me know (it%26#039;s against community rules to leave the information here). I would also be happy to send you some samples if you would like to try the products. Good luck!|||Dee, hello. Latex gloves are bad for eczema. You should wear Vinyl gloves instead; and if your hands are sweating - Cotton gloves underneath. As for topical medications: I suggest that you should if you haven%26#039;t already try the herbal cream by Champori: it helps my eczema better than anything else I tried, and it is harmless, too.


Best,

My son was born with eczema and we struggled with it for years. I tried everything, spending 100-200$ a week (seriously). I never went anywhere without at least 3 types of itch cream plus lotion. He cried and and rarely slept for more than a couple hours at a time. I could go on and on....it was horrible.


Then my husband found Freederm on the internet. We bought it not expecting much, but it relieves the itch and controls the rash. Within a couple of days his skin didn%26#039;t look so angry and was starting to get smooth. He also started sleeping through the night (and so did I).


Use it liberally at first but as the months go by it won%26#039;t be necessary to use so much anymore. We used it for a little more than a year and then the eczema was gone and we haven%26#039;t had a problem with it in more than two years.|||the best thing you can do is to keep the skin moist all throughout the day using an all natural skin care moisturizer. be sure to keep the skin hydrated by drinking lots of water. avoid moisture robbers like dry air, humidity and too much exposure to extreme temperatures. avoid things and skin irritants that can encourage eczema outbreaks. consult your dermatologist about the best treatments for eczema. visit http://www.skinoriginal.com for tips on how to avoid eczema flares.|||I highly recommend using this amazing organic oil known as Argan oil. It has been popular in Israel and Morocco for years. It became really popular in Europe when models started using it, and is now found in all the spas and salons, I grew up in France and have been using it for years. It absorbs into the skin really quickly, faster than most creams and lotions. It works wonders for the skin, hair, nails, and skin ailments. It is all around the most beneficial and rarest organic skin care product on the planet. We used it for my niece%26#039;s eczema and it worked wonders. For some reason it only grows in Morocco. I found one website that has the best directions for all its different uses. I contacted them and they said they start selling in two weeks. You can register for a discount now and future promotions.





edenallure(dot)com|||Use a zinc oxide or Desitin cream. It should penetrate the dryness when you wear the gloves. You may have to apply it several times a day depending how often you have to change gloves.|||I%26#039;ve used cortisone, mecca (very hard to find now), and something with zinc. However, I%26#039;ve found it is very related to spiritual and emotional health too.|||Protopic or Elidel? They%26#039;re better than cortisone for long-term use.|||Hi,
