Guest guest Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Thanks Kate. I will give the primrose a try one of these days.My 9 yr. Old hates lotions,creams,anything,even sunblock.lol.>ut she lets me put the balm.lol.she thinks its a miracle cream cuz when she had that accident on her bike and had a bruise the size of a fist well it faded it and she was wowedd big time.lol.My 3 yr.old sneak itches.lol.So I have to check all the time to see if she has scratched it raw. My 9 yr. Old also has asthma and I have heard and her doc said sometimes asthma and exzema come in hand.I dunno. --- MSersLife wrote: > Hey Cassy--a couple of my kids have eczema as well. Another 'natural' approach is Evening Primrose Oil. Doesn't have that great a smell to it, but sometimes I put a few drops of Lavender oil in it. You put it on topically after a bath, before bed, as it is greasy. It works well. The other real important thing is, that eczema is a condition that is on the outside of the body, but it begins inside the body. Eczema is the result of not enough EFA-essential fatty acid, in the diet. My friend taught me the trick of buying those little waffle toasters;make them for breakfast, pour a tablespoon of flax oil mixed with maple syrup or cinammon sugar on top of the waffles. It beats mixing flax oil into OJ and drinking it! Or I'll make my kids fruit smoothies and put the flax oil in that way--but it separates if it sits, so ya have to drink up kinda quick. lol! love to you, kate > > > > Sharon.I use the 5 herb balm on my daughters > > eczema.They both have it,my 3 yr.old does > > bad,especially on the inside of her elbows and inside > > of her knees.She will itch it and not tell me and > > sometimes so bad it bleeds,either way the balm > > works.The only other thing that works is > > hydrocortisone 1 % but even the 5 herb works > > better,and hey its alnatural. > > Please visit: http://www.bicycleman.com > awesome guy, fantastic site.
