How to Combat Eczema
Having a severe case of eczema can impact a lot on your life. Here are just a couple of ways of helping combat the pain of eczema.
• Make sure your clothes are 100% cotton or at least made from soft fabrics
• Try to avoid rough or scratchy fibres and fabrics as these can act as irritants.
• Try to avoid tight clothing – again this is an irritant.
• If you can find them use rubber gloves with a lining made from cotton.
• When showering or having a bath, use lukewarm water, the change in body temperate from normal to really hot can increase the inflammation of the eczema.
• Use mild soaps or non-soap cleansing products.
• Quick changes in temperature can irritate eczema so avoid activities that will cause this to happen.
• Dust mites are one of the main stimuli’s for eczema so make sure you ventilate your house, get rid of rugs, carpets and stuffed toys, regularly change bed linen and vacuum your mattress and cushions.
• Reduce your stress levels
• Try to not use feather pillows
• Make sure you pat yourself dry after washing and moisture as soon as possible to ‘lock in’ moisture.
