I've had eczema (on my entire body, though the worst of it is on my arms, legs, and chest) for my entire life. I'm using lotion for the dryness, but I've never been able to find anything that really helps with all of my symptoms. I'm itchy near constantly, and it worsens with heat, humidity, and stress. I can only wear certain types of clothing and use certain types of sheets and the like because everything else hurts too much. I can't wear makeup or use most skincare products because they burn. If I forget to put on lotion for more than a week, I get sores and open wounds on the worst dry patches. I'm sure that all of this sounds relatively normal as far as eczema goes, but recently it's been getting worse and harder to deal with. I'll wake up scratching, sometimes bleeding. It itches so much, and sometimes it hurts to move because of a combination of dryness and itching. I'm just not sure what to do, as I've tried so many different products, and the most they do is help with the dryness. Nothing has ever helped with the itching or the pain. Does anyone have any advice on products to try, whether I should talk to my doctor (again), or just what to do in general? Thank you so much.
