Hi all,
I'm looking for some advice as to eczema, I had it when I was a child and have had no problems until this Summer when it came back with a vengeance on my face!
It is so bad its keep me awake at night and I can spend hours crying in pain as my face constantly stings, its like nothing I've had previously. I've had to visit a&e its been so bad! My skin is completely open and even showering is painful as I feel like someone has cut my face 10000 times with tiny razors.
I feel so awkward going out as I cannot wear a mask and not wearing a mask judgment is real. (If I could I would wear one).
I am currently seeing a dermatologist and he prescribed a course of steroids initially they worked and I thought they'd done the trick however every time I reduced the dose my face got worse. I'm now off the tablets and back to square one.
I was given some tracolimus cream however I reacted badly to it.
Has anyone been through anything similar? Is there anything they have found helps? (I've stopped consuming dairy).
I've seen reviews for Cerave and wondering whether to buy it.
I'm at my wits end, I've no confidence and feel rubbish.
