I had bad vision, so I acupunctured my eyeballs, and the vision went away entirely. Problem solved!

would also say from my experience that acupuncture is helpful, but addressing toxins in diet/environment is key to getting to the root of the problem. creams, herbal concoctions, pills are toxic to the body – put too much stress on the liver – and set you up for an even worse case of eczema in the long run. this has been my personal experience.

google “donia eczema cure” – key is the profound link between diet & health. also, look up “green smoothies” and “skin brushing” – things that i’ve incorporated and that work. i’ve had eczema since i was an infant, horrific eczema in my twenties, but can say two years after letting fresh, whole foods be my medicine, i am well on my way to being truly free of this disease. there’s no pill/quick treatment that will make it go away 4 good (tried the above & all that western medicine has to offer).

I tried TCM a year ago as a last resort, to get rid of my eczema after listening to western quacks who call themselves doctors. The treatment was acupuncture, some herbal black tea that I prepared myself after instructions, and some chinese ointment that smelled like ginger. For the 1st time ever it all went away after 1 month of treatment (supposed to do 3 months). I had to stop tho ’cause I went abroad and it was too costly at the time. It started coming back after 1 month, but it worked!

Quel traitement suivez vous pour votre eczema, car la plupart des traitements que j’ai traitée n’ont marchés que quelques jours .

if you have a bad case of eczema like a lot of people, you would be willing to try anything

aquasmash18 July 28, 2010 at 3:21 pm

thank you so much. eczema is a lot worse than people think.

Atkins diet, which eliminates most allergy causing foods. Fenofexodine 180mg.
New drug I want to find out about called
toctino. Anybody tried it.

carolethecatlover July 28, 2010 at 4:51 pm

Yes. I have been having acupuncture for eczema/dermatitis. Slow, 8 visits so far, but dry, and hardly ever itchy now.
I also recommend cutting out all citrus fruit. This was a side effect of doing the Atkins diet 7 years ago. 90% of my eczema disappeared in 3 days. But, it flares up from time to time. I think this was caused by some food with lemon juice in it. But it is so much better, that I now can experiment with cures.

it is easy not to believe what u cannot see, and sometimes its hard to believe what u can…

GooGoo32 July 28, 2010 at 5:41 pm

I’m going to try it and see how it goes. What else is recommended?
