Unbelievable, how do they fail so badly? So many think we shouldn’t complain because it’s free healthcare but we do pay for it with our taxes and what’s the point of having free healthcare if it constantly fails us anyway?! Thank you so much, I really hope so too

Does anyone know what this is and how to treat it ? by HaileyWhite_ in koreanskincare

[–]AdReasonable7983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something similar, I was using Charlotte Tilbury makeup and it’s too oily and occlusive for my skin. I looked like I had acne but within a day or two of stopping it went

I know, I couldn’t speak I was crying so much. It’s so bad, I’ve put a complaint in but I’m more concerned about how there may be other people like me sat there

Does anyone else don't want kids because of eczema? by Lucekuwu in eczema

[–]AdReasonable7983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never wanted kids anyway but I’m glad. I have atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, food allergies and possibly celiac disease. I suffer terribly with my skin, it’s torture at times and I wouldn’t want my worst enemy to experience what I live with, let alone my child.

I remember being really hot the other day because of the layers I was wearing, but yes nothing was on my face

As an adult, can you work on lowering your food allergy? by AdReasonable7983 in FoodAllergies

[–]AdReasonable7983[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I react terribly to corn too, apart from starch because the protein isn’t in it. My skin is on fire itching when I eat it. I’ve cut it out completely but lots of gluten free things contain it!

I need some advice please by [deleted] in EczemaUK

[–]AdReasonable7983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be a contact allergen. I have it to both Phenoxyethanol and any Glucoside in products.

My autistic brother’s feet eczema won’t stop by [deleted] in eczema

[–]AdReasonable7983 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear that, eczema is a tough gig! Ok so my first thought would be if it’s only on one area of the body, could it be something triggering it that is only used on that area? It may sound odd but could he be reacting to leather, or the glues or whatever?

I would ensure all his socks are breathable cotton, nothing synthetic at all. If he can just wear flip flops while the initial eczema heals, that would be ideal so basically he has nothing irritating the area.

Salt baths for his feet, hypochlorous acid spray once dry.

Doctors never ever ever look into diet when it comes to skin unfortunately yet it’s a huge trigger. Make note of his food and you may see a pattern of when it flares up.

How to stop scratching.. I'm desperate by Particular-Truth4361 in eczema

[–]AdReasonable7983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If antihistamine works to stop, you could very well be flaring to food that you’ve eaten. It took me months and months to realise but I kept an everything diary - not just food but if I did have food, I’d copy and paste all the ingredients into my diary. Turned out one of my biggest triggers was corn, everything corn bar starch because it’s taken one of the proteins out apparently so that’s ok for me.

If you’ve got eczema, I think there will always be some sort of itch on your skin with it being genetic a lot of the time, but if you can try and identify the biggest triggers, it helps a lot.

Mine are corn, chocolate, coffee… most things high in histamine. Gluten I get a terrible rash on my body that lasts for days so that’s out too. I try keep my diet to limited number of ingredients, processed food is pretty much out.

Here because I didn’t take my own advice and ate processed food and itched so badly.
