Hello. Im 19 years old, and I'm having some issues with my eczema.
On my arms and hands, I have some very dry spots which I constantly itch. When I start itching, I can't stop. But I know the answer fixing that; simply don't itch it. But as I'm sure a lot of you know; it's not that easy. It seems like I've tried everything to get rid of it: Aquaphor, all types of lotions (Jergens, Lubriderm, Nivia, Nivea, and I'm sure some more), I've also had some prescription items like Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment. I have also tried many anti-itch items: powders, and cortisone cream. But yet, I still have it. My dermatologist said that It may improve with my Accutane, but after a month of taking it, I have yet to see any improvement.
I would love a direction of where to go; on how to improve this issue. What I can do/take/use to help (by help I mean minimize the rash, or what would be better, to stop the itching).
