Eczema is without a doubt a painful and irritating disease. Once you scratch your skin, it will only get worse. There are many ways to temporarily relieve eczema and most of the necessary ingredients can be found in your home. A word of warning though, eczema is a disease that needs to be treated with medical care. If the recommended treatments in the following paragraphs seem to make your eczema worse, discontinue the treatment and consult a qualified physician.
coconut oil
Apply a generous amount of coconut oil to the affected area. This moisturizes your skin and helps prevent dryness and flaking. If you can’t get coconut oil, use mudpack as a substitute. Coconut oil is readily available in drugstores.
Cold compress
Do this twice a day and feel the relief. It will reduce the itch, so you won’t be able to rub it anymore. However, the cold compress can absorb the moisture from your skin, so limit its use to a minimum number of times per day. Preferably apply a dermatologist-approved cream immediately after the cold compress treatment.
Milk Compress
Place a cloth soaked in milk on the affected area and leave it there for 15 minutes. Like coconut oil, this moisturizes your skin, relieves pain and reduces the chance of dryness and flaking.
sunbathe
You can sunbathe during a brisk early morning walk or while jogging. This should be done before ten o’clock in the morning, when the sun’s rays are still cool to the skin and still rich in vitamin D. After ten o’clock in the morning, the sun’s rays are already very harmful, so stay away from open spaces.
Steam bath
Do this twice a day to get relief. If the steam bath is too hot for you, you can use a mild warm compress to relieve the pain. Be very diligent about this so that you do not suffer from itching and inflammation again and again.
Each person’s skin will react differently to the remedies described above. Always consult a qualified doctor if the eczema gets worse or if no relief is felt. Remember to steer clear of water contact unless necessary, as water is a known trigger for eczema flare-ups. This happens when the skin gets wet and no moisturizer is applied. Once the water evaporates, the skin remains dry and this causes the eczema to get worse.
