Re: Excema - I'm sure it's been covered before

[Guest guest]

There are several treatments including light treatment. I have had

excema for 30 years, usuall a steroid cream works for me ,but i have

tried the advertised zinc based spray, I'm blanking on the name right

now but can find out later, which has helped as much as the steroids,

also avoid perfumes in lotions etc

> I'm quite positive this has been covered before. The archives when

pulled up did me justice, I must be doing something wrong. Anyways,

does soemone have any suggestions about excema(?).

steroidsw, topical ointments etc. They are getting expensive and

gross, and not getting rid of it, just suppressing for a period of

time.

has come on and I had thought that was do to metal poisoning, she is

coming around and somewhat listening. Any help provided would be

wonderful.
