Asthma related eczema?

What do I do about my eczema? According to doctors, a lot of people with asthma also have eczema. The question is, what do I do about it? My doctor (Dr. Smartguy, lol) prescribed a cream that’s for psoriasis (& that’s obviously not going to work). I ONLY have it in my scalp and around my hairline. I try to rub it off my forehead & it leaves what looks like a burn mark (bright red). What can I do for this? It’s really bothersome, especially since it’s summertime. Any at home remedies? Over the counter remedies? Anything I could suggest my doctor prescribe?

THANKS!

    First of all, you should go to a dermatologist. They specialize in skin so they should be able to give you a prescription.

    I have it and get it really bad on my hands. My doctor gave me this stuff called Clobetasol, which works really good. But it’s really strong, so you shouldn’t use it on your face. For my face my doctor prescribed this cream called Hydrocortisone, which works well for me. However my skin and you’re skin aren’t the same, so instead of asking for what I use you should get a dermatologist to tell you what would be best for you.

    Soaking my hands always helped them, so maybe you could put a damp wash cloth over your forehead for fifteen minutes or so every day, then put lotions or medicine on. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten it on my forehead so I’m not sure about home or over the counter remedies.

    The main cause of eczema is overreaction of the immune system. Identifying certain foods, chemicals, etc can be very helpful in battling this disease. I try to avoid soy and milk products which trigger my flare-ups.
    After using number of prescription drugs I’ve turned to the natural treatments.
    Now I use herbal remedies from serenaskin.com, which aim at the root of the disease – the immune system, and are steroid-free.
    After about 2 weeks of using ointment and spray my skin and scalp have been cleared up and now I just continue with anti-eczema extract, which controls the immune system. My skin has been clear for months now.
    It is the only treatment I have found that provides me complete relief when I use it as directed.

    Moisturize that area as much as possible. I’ve found that petroleum based moisturizers work best, like Vaseline or Aquaphor.

    Also, try using hydrocortisone. You can get it over the counter.

    Yes there is a effective way to treat psoriasis, just they are not using it in America, as they are to greedy.

    You don’t have to go to Japan either. You can actually get the water for a free trial. Place a wanted add on http://www.craigslist.com and ask for it. Ask for 8.5 PH drinking water. The same machine can make 2.5 PH acidic water to treat the psoriasis, and also kill bacteria on contact.

    Good Luck!
