Skin problem?
Hi. It sounds like you might have eczema. It's a skin condition that my cousin used to have. Your skin just tends to get really dry. You should probably go to a dermatologist for it. You could even go to your doctor for it. Also my friend has it and she only drinks water now because it helps alot! I didn't even know she had it but I guess the combination with her medicine and water helps it from comming back. Im very concious with my skin too so i hope everything turns out ok! Good luck!

Use cream. It sounds like dry skin.
Reply:go to a dermatologist
Reply:Sounds like some kind of fungus infection, or eczema. Go to a dermatologist. Cortisone cream usually helps with the itching.
Reply:Sounds like eczema. See a doctor for Rx lotion.
Reply:Sounds almost like you may have ezema?
Reply:Try flushing your system and juicing some live cell foods such as carrots ....and a good natural lotion and hope it's not your nerves .
Reply:check WebMD %26amp; see if you can narrow it down some. It could be a reaction to a soap or product or it could be something else. Good luck to you.
Reply:this sounds like staph you need to go to your family dockter
Reply:Sounds like eczema-try hydrocortisone cream. If that doesn't help go to a dermatologist.
Reply:Do not keep touching or scratching them no matter how much they itch. The best thing to do would be to put E45 cream on them daily. Make sure you exfoliate daily and be sure to use a good moisturiser. You could even use the E45 cream after a bath. You can buy them from pretty much any chemist or boots.
Reply:I HAVE THE SAME THING!


Go to the dermatologist and tell him about it. Lubriderm lotion works the best for that kind of skin. I started doing these things and they're gone. Your probably going to see kind of light colored spots. That's normal. that stuff is gona be there 4 evr
Reply:Sounds like your allergic to some think or a mild form of Eczema ((small red dry spots, itchy)) but I'm not a doctor although i have to be with my 2 children! LOL. I think you should go see your Doctor to be on the safe side, until then try some body moisturizer, it does help with the itching.

Reply:try some calamine lotion... its for rashes and fungi... it worked for me
Reply:It is eczema. You must put lotion on every day. I have also had this for years. My dermatologist told me that after I get out of the shower - it takes only 3 minutes to start losing moisture in your skin. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate - Eucerin is the best lotion, but it is expensive.





I also have been taking Evening Primrose supplements and it definitely has made a HUGE difference.





Also, my doctor told me I could try Benedryl and that seems to work as well (I take it at night because it makes you drowsy)





Good luck!





I know how you feel it sucks to have it!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reply:Go see a dermatologist. There are several things it could be, like psoriasis, pityriasis, eczema, or one of many other skin conditions. Treatments of skin conditions vary from creams/ointments to pills and even UV (light) therapy. The doctor may have to do a biopsy to diagnose it. Don't worry- biopsies aren't only for suspected cancer! Although, when a skin sample of a spot is taken, the doctor will check and make sure it isn't cancerous, just to be on the safe side. He/she will also look at the skin cells and what's in and around them to determine what the problem is. Skin biopsies usually don't hurt badly because you're given a shot of anesthetic in the skin where the biopsy will be taken from, and you shouldn't need much more than a little gauze dressing on it afterward.





Only a dermatologist can diagnose you and prescribe appropriate treatments.
