Does anyone suffer with eczema, isn't it so satisfying when you just need to scratch it. Even though it makes it worse...

Is Eczema another word for crabs Bastet?

eczema is a skin condition....

I used to have it when I was just a little boy & really bad lol.
But when I stopped scratching, it felt more satisfying, I didn't feel the need anymore and now I just don't have it anymore

A few weeks back I had Herpes Zoster (shingles) and it really itched like ****.
But I couldn't directly scratch it so I wore an old t shirt and then scratched it over that. I threw away the t-shirt, too afraid to get it again.

But yeah, I know what kind of horror extreme itching is. What I found to be a great remedy was taking a shower and putting it on firehose mode and hose that shit down. I took like 30 minute showers to ease the itching. Somewhere during the shower it actually started feeling really good.

Skin conditions also really suck because it can't really be prevented by the person and people look at you like you're disgusting. Of course it can be disgusting to look at, but it's not nice when people associate you with filth.

I think I had it when I was 7~8 years old, it dissapeared after I used a sort of white salve my dad uses. Maybe you should go to a skin doctor or something xD

No point going, just wait till autumn is here.. and it will go. And I don't fancy paying money for something that wouldn't probably help.

My salve worked just fine. We no longer live in an era where all doctors are quacks, they actually do help. And besides, should be covered by insurance anyways.

I use to have it. I needed to use a special soap or my skin would itch like crazy =/.

Yeah, might of worked just fine for you, but I've used some creams and they haven't worked. I just wait till the weather gets colder and its gone.

And plus I have to pay for the prescription in the UK, which doesn't come cheap.

Bad era to have exzema.

well, those creams didn't work for me either.
for me, it was just in the head, the itching.
after a couple of remarks about it, I started to see it did more bad than good, the scratching.
so I stopped scratching & now I even don't feel it itching anymore.

I used to have it when I was younger. I had it a little on my hands only in certain seasons. Sometimes it itched so bad, I scratched it until it was all bloody, but it felt great:D It disappeared when I reached puberty just like my doctor said when I was little. I'm glad id did tho, it wasn't very nice to have it

i know a guy who has it, he still scratches it. it never heals, cool guy though. just can't look at his hands.

I used to have eczema. Clotrimazole and betamethasone diproprionate clears it right up in 3-5 days.

Use Sam on Control Panel in Windows XP.

i have eczema ... and it gets worse in warmer weathers (duh) ... since im indian and i got some wicked connections over seas, some doctor hooked me up with some pills to lower my condition and its worked so well that it disappeared during the winter.

the doctors here (usa) told me they couldnt treat it ... and i was going to be stuck with it >.>

What;s really weird is, this is the first year I've had it on my face. It sucks mega douche.

Poor you, herpse virusses can always come back. They stay in your body.

Not always. Chicken Pox is a form of the herpes virus. People usually only get that once.

i have a dry skin problem but thats about it...i was prescribed a creme which seemed to work well when i used it....

I also get it on my face and in my opinion is the worse place to get it, even though its not as worse then what it is on my hands. But sometimes when it is really bad, it just looks horrible and everyone can see it. The only time its really bad, is when I am really stressed, coming down with something or its been raining and have been caught out in the rain.
