Skin Problem 101: Eczema

Hey Bloggers(:

For my first post I would talk about the most common skin condition that most might have and that is...ECZEMA!! :S

There are two types of eczema one is through inheritance and one is through environmental factors. Well the eczema that I have is inheritance (sadly). When I was a kid I develop hay fever which led into eczema.

So, I do have difficulties sometimes with my skin and they just love to come as they please like NOOO INVITES smh...so as I'm getting older the condition is getting worst. The most obvious area that can be seen are my hands because I use my hands a lot like I mean who doesn't? It gets even worst! At times I would want to show my hands and I would pull my sleeves down to cover my hands or stuff them in my pockets.

Effects of Eczema 

Some symptoms are:
Dry Skin
Itchy Skin
Paper-cut like appearance on the skin
Rough patches
Burning/Stinging sensations sometimes
Circle border formation on the skin (can look dry, skin colour or even scratch like colour)
Skin can also look red at all times depending on the person

The above symptoms are what I experience everyday and it is torture!! I feel like I am a prisoner of my own skin and at times it would burn so much that I would just want to rip it off---

Eczema

So that was couple of weeks ago when it was acting up again its also on the surface of my hands only and sometimes at my elbow crease but the hands' reactions are the ones that bothers me the most and I'm actually terrify of showing my hands..hence that is why I am single LOL.

So that is how  my hands look like now as you can see near my wrist it is very evident that it is rough and its all wrinkly and dry like...

But there is one product that I find very helpful for myself and it is affordable and no prescriptions are need. Plus if you were to ever get prescription drugs for your eczema you have to be very careful because over time it can dis pigment your skin colour and it would be like that permanently. So that is why I dont use my prescription ointments even though I should....but I find what I use now is like TEN times better so here it is........

   

THAT right it is AVEENO!!

It is also approve by the Eczema Society of Canada ...so fellow Canadians can check out their website!!

Aveeno help with my conditions and just FYI for my eczema it is never gonna go away but it can be control so I have to just learn how to deal with it and be in environments that wont do much harms to my skin
