Re: Help needed on Eczema , please …
Seems like Daktacort is quite popular. I got it prescribed today 
I has eczema…
It has spread on my thighs and stomach so far… I’ll be trying this cream for a week.. if this doesnt work GP is going to prescribe a stronger steroid cream… Aaliyah I’ll be trying the garlic as well… Anything to get rid of this retarded disease! 
Re: Help needed on Eczema , please .......
Dakatacort is super!
Barbie, if it does'nt work then use a cream with the highest potency levels, obviously consult your GP beforehand but for me low potency ones didn't work as well.
Also use Double Base, its a moisturiser that also helps!
Re: Help needed on Eczema , please …
ok :k: will see after a week!
Re: Help needed on Eczema , please …
Update: Tried Daktacort for a week and it didn’t help.
Went to the GP again and she said it looks more like Pityriasis Rosea i.e. Herald Patch… not eczema…
With the use of a mild steroid cream like Betnovate and a good moisturiser like Aveeno, its going to take anywhere between 2-3- months for it to heal… Its quite rare for it to return so thats good! … But its going to itch like crazy 
I’ve been told to avoid getting too sweaty (which I won’t coz its cold here in Ireland already 
) … She also said it might get worse before it gets better… so yeah fun fun! =/
Re: Help needed on Eczema , please .......
Yaar Ghalib - Sorry - I shuld have explained in my original post.
Eczema is a skin disorder. This causes itching, and scaling of the skin.
it seems by discription your son has fungus diease which is similar to eczema. Fungus germs are very hard to kill either burn them or kill by chemicals. It takes longer to heal damage done by germs.
please dont waste you effort on smelly garlic or ginger best thing use canesten cream 1% hopefully it will cure your sons infection.
please make sure to change his cloths socks everyday. Iron cloths pants socks befor use to kill germs otherwise it will keeps on attacking.
canesten 1% could be used for to cure some sexuall disease as well for men and women
Re: Help needed on Eczema , please …
Want a quicker way? Use a higher steroid potency. 
Though the GP knows best!
Re: Help needed on Eczema , please .......
She said its not a fungal infection so she didn't prescribe any higher steroid potency cream, she said it will take time to heal by itself ... Thank you funnymonkey for ur tips, and shak which cream did u use?
Re: Help needed on Eczema , please .......
Betnovate, low potency at first. Didn't work for me, switched to Daktacort high potency and it solved!
Ok, I also used Double Base cream, it has NO steroids or anything and its an excellent moisturiser thing designed to help with itching and keep the skin not-dry. Found it very effective and could be used whenever wanted!
Also, posted from the blog:
After showers avoid brushing your towel on the skin too much when drying, instead 'pat' to dry. Helps the skin not get 'dry', dryness may also cause itching. Avoid long warm showers, be in and out in 5 mins, warm water robs the skin of moisture.
One more thing, what soap do you use for shower? I was told to avoid using some and the GP prescribed me a substitute for it
Re: Help needed on Eczema , please …
i use dove 
I’ll be going shopping tomorrow, to get some soap suitable for dry skin, some shampoo suitable for really dry scalp, dettol perhaps to kill all the retarded germs, and Aveeno or Double Base moisturiser (if I can get it without prescription? ) … and yeah something for the face too coz betnovate isn’t suitable for the face… :hinna: and I iz already broke!
And Daktacort hasn’t helped me at all so no harm in trying betnovate for a while now…
