[QUOTE="goldenguru, post: 208866, member: 1545"] Also a chronic eczema sufferer. Mine is much worse in the winter months. A couple of basic helps: I do not shower every day. When it gets really bad I can only shower about 3 times per week. I only wash the areas that really need it. I use an oatmeal based soap such as Aveeno. I also grease myself up from head to toe after every shower with- a good scent free lotion. Laundry soaps that have no scents - same with-fabric softeners. I have a humidifier on the furnace and run one constantly in my bedroom. I stick to cotton (no synthetic) fabrics. And when it gets really really bad I resort to pharmacological creams. The trick is to keep it under control and not let it get to the bleeding and cracking stage. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
