If you have eczema, you know how hindering it can be. It can erode self-confidence in even the most confident of folks. However, you don't have to let yourself become victim to this unwanted malady. The following tips will help you live with and treat eczema and its annoying flare-ups.
When you have eczema, you should take caution to clean the skin gently. Once you have washed your skin, and it is still moist, apply a good moisturizer to the skin within three minutes to ensure the moisture is sealed into the skin. You may even want to soak in a nice oatmeal bath as well before you moisturize.
Pay attention to your hands. Because you wash them throughout the day, they can get very dry and are prone to more eczema. If you are engaged in an activity that involves water, like washing the dishes, wear rubber gloves. This will help protect your skin from the water throughout the day.
