Lydia Jami I had been suffering with this for over 6 months and what really helped was high doses of probiotics (20 billion live active cultures, 12 strains) , 3 Allegra a day, spirulina, and fish oil. Topically oregano oil and aquaphore back to back. I had to do this for almost 3-4 months. Once I started this regime I experienced a bit of “herxheimer reaction” but it has finally cleared up completely. Reddit has a great post on this just google it should come up.

I have it both on my hands and feet. I've had it all my life. Doctors would say it would go away as I grew older but I'm in my twenties now, yet it never did. I felt like I was the only one going through this, like no-one in my family or my friends had anything like this. But after watching this video and reading the comments by people who suffer from this definitely makes me feel like I'm not alone in this. Yes stress makes it 10x worse for me, cuz I get flare-ups whenever I have a huge exam coming up. The weather also probably has something to do with it, cuz I also get outbreaks around season changes. Like I have it right now. I hope everyone with skin conditions like this are doing better and pray that we get healed permanently.

I have had this my entire life and what I have discovered through research and experimentation is that it's basically an allergic reaction that you will never be completely cured of, though it can be managed. I discovered that generically made soaps and detergents, especially in liquid form, [shampoo, conditioner, body wash, probably hand moisturizer too, but I dont know because I dont use hand moisturizer, for this reason; etc] all contain harsh chemicals and/or metals that can irritate your skin and cause flare ups. Moisture and oils from yours hands will also do it; it is important to keep your hands as dry as possible at all times. It has also become clear to me that if you don't exercise your hands in a way that promotes muscle growth, this will also cause flare ups [this has led me to believe that the eczema may be caused by the breaking down of unused muscle tissue, but I dont know for sure; experienced intuitive connections]. Drugs like prednisone and steroid creams are harsh, temporary solutions and should be avoided from long term use. Without finding ways of managing your eczema naturally, and relying on prescriptions, you will continue wreaking havoc on your body, and long term side effects can begin to manifest. How I've learned to manage my eczema: Eliminated harsh soaps. I now only use pure castille [100% olive oil] soap, in bar form, with nothing added to it. This includes hand washing, body washing, and has replaced shampoo and conditioner- its all I use. Work with my hands. Keeping them active by handling heavy objects promotes muscle growth. Woodworking/yard work. Instead of washing your hands with soap and water [which promote eczema], wash your hands with dirt and/or sawdust- really. The dirt helps exfoliate the skin and absorbs moisture promoting new skin growth. It also contains vitamins and minerals which will help promote the repair of damaged skin. Woodworking. I know most of you probably dont have the means of working in a wood shop, or building houses, but working with wood [without gloves on, yes, you may get a splinter or two] helps whisk moisture away from hands. It also helps promote muscle growth. You would be able to procure sawdust/ wood chips easily if you wanted to try this as a therapy. But, you'd be advised to stay away from wood that contains large amounts of oil like cedar, or mahogany, because these oily woods can cause a flare up. Pine dust works well. You would be amazed how quickly your eczema clears up if you spent a couple of days building a shed, or something similar. These are the basic guidelines that I have developed and used for many years and now I rarely get eczema, though a blister or two will still pop up from time to time, inevitably. Why I am here writing this right now: I recently broke a bone in my hand, had surgery, had a splint put on, and the trapped moisture and chemicals underneath the splint has turned my hand into something that could be used as an 80's B-rated horror movie prop. After all the years of researching and experimenting, I have never seen anything like this and was hoping to find another way of curing this without prescription medicines because, unfortunately, and admittedly, the magnitude of the current damage is way beyond the use of sawdust. We're talking fire. Hope this helps someone out there in youtube land.

Thanks for posting this, it's nice to hear about how someone who's gone through this type of eczema has coped with it! If you're not allergic to nuts, I've found that almond milk and cashew milk are nice dairy substitutes which have a lighter flavour than soya milk and don't affect the taste when you're having it with cereal or coffee. As for shampoos/conditioners, I started using ones by a brand called "Live Clean". They're sold in Canada, but I'm not sure if they're available internationally. The pompholyx eczema that plagued my palms disappeared within a couple weeks into switching to these products and flare-ups have been minimal. Hope this also helps someone out there!

I'm going through this so bad right now! I originally started getting it around a year and a half ago, but it would never get to the point where it was painful. A couple of months ago my nannan got really ill and due to the stress and emotions, it flared up big time. I got some steroid cream and epaderm from the doctors, as well as having some diprobase and none of them worked. My nannan then passed away in August and it got even worse! Stress and emotions are definitely a big factor! I'm now at the point where I physically can't do anything myself, I'm 23 years old and I had to get my mum to wash me and my hair this morning. I've tried everything you've mentioned and unfortunately nothing has worked for me. I was trying to eat tonight and I just couldn't grip my cutlery. I looked down at my hands and just stared at them and cried. They're hideous. They look burnt. I'm so embarrassed cos I just look like a scabby mess. I'm off to a walk in centre tomorrow to see if anything more can be done. I really can't cope with this anymore, it's so emotionally draining 😴

I just beleived that my thletes foot was incurable. Picked up the phone and spoke with the doctor today & sent her pics. She told me it's pomphlyx eczema. I am so relieved I know what it is. Now that I knwo what it is I can finally start treating it. I also don't drink regular milk. I drink soya milk. I cannot drink the standard soya milk it tastes really horrible to me. I drink sweetened soya milk that I buy from Lidl. (Not the almond one, just the one that's called 'sweetened' by the brand 'Just Free'. I like the taste of it. You can also buy sweetened soya milk from tesco and probably other supermarkets too :) I also use Sanex. Maybe your doc can suggest some non chemical products for your hair

the problem is detergent, dish soap especially. My hands get terrible bleeding cracks. Don't go anywhere near the sink without gloves on. If my hands start to itch I rinse them exhaustively with fresh water and then dry them thoroughly. Until I figured out it was dish soap I needed strong clobetasol, now I"m symptom free and need no steroids. These bleeding cracks she shows are something more than just pompholyx, most people with dyshydrosis don't have them, only blisters. I don't get the blisters very often at all. I don't believe you have "infection" don't overuse antibiotics. Just because it's red and even bleeding doesn't mean it's "infected".

I was just diagnosed in June I started having symptoms in May. I was breaking out everywhere. I ended up taking methylprednisolone and then prednisone with a steroid cream. I am now out of medication and have to see a dermatologist because it’s spreading from my palms to my fingers. I’m happy I ran across your channel. It’s been so stressful and painful. I do believe that stress triggers it and smoking also makes it flare up. I’m ready to get it back to normal and feel myself without waking up and my hands are irritated and flared up

I also think that from washing my hands excessively has brought it on because I didn’t have any issues before quarantine but due to washing my hands CONSTANTLY I feel like it brought it on.

Thank God for videos such as these. I was born with eczema but it started on my hands when I was around 12, when I started doing chores around the house like washing dishes and handling chemicals in disinfectants. It gets so bad, cracks and even bleeds sometimes. I avoid scented lotions and direct skin contact of perfumes. I also use latex free washing up gloves. Allergic to high protein foods like eggs, spirulina and raw meat. Thank you for this video.

Try using Aciclovir creme. Apply a soft layer at night and try not to wipe it. The Resuslts should be visible in a couple of days. This works for me every time. And try not to stress to much.

Hey, I have eczema all over my body. I have had it since birth but it wasn't notice able until I moved to America. Washington's weather really effected me, I always cried my body would burn from water and lotion. I would always hate me, myself and my body. I thought people didn't hang out with me because of my eczema. I always felt different, because I couldn't eat everything a normal child would. I was so scared to take baths, I would cry and beg my mom not to take baths. I would wake up in the middle of the night itching and crying, I couldn't go back to bed. I would have blood on my sheets. Non of the things I have used to get rid of my eczema has worked. It makes me sadder that the doctor tell me that it will never go away but it can get a little better. I am twelve and still have eczema...I feel depressed and feel like I dont fit in. !! ❤️✨😭😭😭

I just want you to know that I have somehow grown out of it so have faith and keep up with the cream, use gloves at night to stop the scratching and the main thing is don't focus on it. I know it is easier said than done, but I started to focus on myself and my emotions and miraculously it cured itself :) I will do a video on it soon. Hope it gets better xx

A week ago on KZitem, I came across video that said eczema was a fungus and maybe something about parasites. These videos say. The gut needs cleaning. Everyone has different ways of changing the diet..have not changed diet much ,but did cut it a lot of sugar . That caused change in itch almost none. Skin was flaky but did not itch..did not sweat, until I ate a lot of sugar again. Sugar feeds fungus Look out for sugar and eczema as fungus.Could be new start for treatment.

I’m 32 and I’ve had it for a few years, it’s something when it’s really bad I’m so self conscious of. I’ve tried steroid cream, diprobase, etc etc and no results. I found it went away when I really used my willpower to prevent myself from scratching and ran my hands under a cold tap to distract the burning itching feeling. I will maybe try the cotton gloves and steroid overnight like you suggested. I also bought some non latex rubber gloves off eBay and I use them in the shower with all my products like face wash, shampoo and conditioner which helps so much so I recommend that. Thank you so much for your video it really helped me feel a bit more normal and that yes it is common. It’s just such an embarrassing condition I think personally. Thank you for being so open and honest about it xxx

Hi Seren! My name is Amanda and I have the EXACT same eczema on my hands as you do. I have felt your pain. Only difference is that I have 2 kids and have been dealing with eczema on my hands for over 6 years now. My biggest struggle was trying to care for my babies and trying not to use baby wipes, hand sanitizer, and trying to avoid other products that caused flare ups. You're video is so extremely comforting to me, knowing that someone else has been there. I am managing my eczema today. I actually just posted a video on KZitem myself about my Eczema story. Your video was listed as recommended for me after I posted. Please, if you have the time, check it out. You're amazing! Your pictures of your hands look absolutely identical to my hands. People don't quite understand how paralyzingly it is to not have use of your hands. Thank you so much for posting this and feel free to contact me anytime to chat about anything. 😁

Stress, nickel allergy (contact and ingestion), and shellfish and soy (being main components of some peoples' diets) can all lead to pompholyx (dyshidrotic) eczema. I've been using itch creams, eczema lotions, modifying my diet, aloe vera gel (alcohol free), it's slowly clearing up for me. I'm actually taking care of my body, applying lotions and such to my skin, and my overall eczema situation is improving.

When I do these 2 things more religiously, they usually work, until some allergen throws it off. I will see if milk products are the cause. Thanks for the helps.

I've had this hand eczema since I was about 6, and then it disappeared for about 2yrs in my late teens, and it came back this year right now which sucks. :/ I've tried numerous creams, medicines, went to many doctors, but I think this just does not have a definite answer. I think it's related to everything I do. Stress, food, seasons, weather... everything! For my case tho, food rlly is important, cause whenever I eat too much flour(like cookies, bread, junk food actually), it comes back! It's freaking itchy like you mentioned, bleeds, skin peels off, but hopefully eventually they turn back to normal. It's painful and rlly drops everyday life, but in the end, they do go away. I hope everyone who's struggling w this gets free someday..!

Cerave cream 1-2 times a day within 5 minutes after shower is ideal. I prefer it to Cetaphil, and so does my dermatologist. Soaking hands/feet in warm water for 10-15 minutes then applying cream also helps. Just make sure to dry. Scratching is a big thing to try to avoid because it will feel better if you don't scratch. It's a difficult habit to overcome but sooo worth it. Also, looking into your nutrition because different things can cause flare up, sometimes greasy foods or alcohol.

Basically my skin peels off my hands, get little cuts, itchy and sore. Your right, its a very depressing disease. Some days I don’t even want to get out of bed. You don’t realize how much you use your hands until you can’t. Hopefully meds work. I don’t really like taking medication, but cannot handle this.

I have had this condition for over 20 years so I can totally relate to you. Normally I have one big flare up a year, usually in the summer and it comes during the pollen season. I may get another mild flare up later in the year, but nowhere near as bad in the summer. My hands and feet are both affected so it can really drive me up the wall with the itching and burning. I also suffer from IBS like yourself, so I agree that stress definitely plays a role in this condition as well.

Hi Seren, I suffer from the exact condition as you. like you, stress, milk and chocolate affect me the most. However i have found recently that goats milk is a good substitue for milk especially on cereal. I find the St Helens goats milk (Semi Skimmed) doesnt taste so goaty, and it really helps mute the break outs. The worst area for me, is my feet. the cracks, splits and ichyness is unreal. Take care

I’d have huge rashes on my legs. Over the years I didn’t expect much from it. Guess it came back but differently. Except I now have it on the side of my thumb and the side of my pointer finger. Its really weird and irritating and I don’t know if I should visit the doctor or not.
