Suggest Remedy To Cure Eczema And Flu Like Bodyaches

I am 30 yrs old and when I was in high school I had pretty bad eczema for about 3 years starting from my ankles all the way up my thighs. It never spread anywhere else but my legs. After visiting a dermatololist and using many different creams perscribed by him, nothing worked excepted the sun and going to the tanning bed. It disappeared for very long time until recently. For about a week and a half now, I having been having uncontrolable itching all over my body. I figured it was an eczema flare up, even though I haven t had one in years. I bought the Aveeno oatmeal bath, Shower gel, and lotion. It relieves it for a couple hours and starts right back up again. There are little red dots on my feet that itch (do not look like mosquito bites but feel like mosquito bites) but anywhere else I itch doesn t leave a mark or show bumps anywhere else but my feet. Now I have other symptoms to add to it that just started yesterday. Body aches, headache, really tired, weak all over, dizzy, and still itching. No fever, sore throat, throwing up. I have no idea what this is. It feels like bodyaches when you have the flu.

Hi,

Oh... Dermatologic conditions are hard to discuss without seeing them and tanning effect is typical for PSORIASIS and not ezcema. Psoriasis is usually very localized and eczema is not. There's pills for either/both that work all over.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
