I have eczema on my shin bones?

Hi, I suffer from eczema on the shin bones of my legs and it's driving me crazy. My legs are so itchy and now there are tiny spots and raised skin it looks awful and with the summer coming up I want to have it cleared up before I have to wear shorts! Any solutions which have worked for anyone would be much appreciated. Thanks.I have eczema on my shin bones?
There are no cures for eczema, only managements. Here are a list of dos and don'ts:



Things not to do:-



Don't use biological powders

Don't use fabric softeners

Don't use soap or detergents to wash with

Don't use standard shower gels or bath additives



Things to do :-



Try Fairy Snow -the old fashioned powder

Use dryer balls

Use a soap free cleanser to wash hands etc.

Use a moisturising shower gel like Oilatum

Use a moisture bath additive like Aveeno

Use a good moisturiser like Aveeno

Use it very frequently, you can't over-moisturise!

Use antihistamines for itch, a non sedative one like loratidine in the morning and a sedative one such piriton at night.

You may need to use steroids creams/ointments for flare up areas. Use the mildest you can, for the shortest time possible.



Sorry if you knew all of that already :-(I have eczema on my shin bones?
Use your prescribed cream and wrap your legs in clingfilm overnight, works wonders
