Do you have eczema? Check the symptoms!

To seek relief and obtain eczema cures, you must first know you have it. So DO YOU?

Do you have the uncontrollable urge to scratch at an itch, which results in a large rash? Rashes are common, but a reoccurring rash may be a sign of eczema. To seek relief and treatment for eczema, you must first know you have it. Do you?

Continue reading to check the typical eczema symptoms.

Symptom #1 – The Constant Need to SCRATCH THAT ITCHY SKIN!

Eczema is a term that is used to describe inflammation of the skin. The skin is irritated, for various reasons, and the sufferer itches to seek relief. We all feel the need to scratch, but the itching associated with eczema is different. It is best described as the reoccurring need to scratch that just doesn’t stop. With a “traditional,” itch, we scratch once and are done, but eczema is different. No matter how much you itch, scratch, or rub the area, the need is always present.

Eczema can affect just about any part of the body; however, it usually occurs on the hands, feet, elbows, and legs. It often begins at “trigger points”, generally areas where you might tend to perspire, such as the back of the knee. And of course scratching broken skin can introduce infections requiring other treatment than for eczema.

Symptom #2 – Red Patches of Skin

Since eczema leads to scratching, the skin becomes further irritated. This results in a red rash. The rash can be large or small; it all depends on the size of the skin you were itching. Most people stop touching the skin when they develop a small rash, but remember that eczema creates the uncontrollable urge. Some sufferers just can’t stop because they believe it is the only way to seek relief. Unfortunately, this often leads to the next eczema symptom, blister-like sores.

Symptom #3 – Blisters That May Ooze

Those who scratch their skin due to eczema, which is an inflammation of the skin, typically experience two end results. One is blister-like sores that may ooze clear or slightly discolored liquid. Overtime, these sores will begin to heal. You may then notice a crust-like surface form.

Symptom #4 – Dry Flaky Skin Patches

Although some eczema sufferers find oozing blisters on their outbreak patches, others experience dry, flaky, and scaly skin. In this case, scratching has usually caused damage to the skin and new skin is working to replace the damage. During this time, you may notice patches of skin that look like they may fall off at any moment.

You now know the common signs and symptoms of eczema, but how can you seek relief? Start by keeping your body moisturized to reduce dry skin. Then, focus on your trigger factors. What is giving you the uncontrollable urge to itch? For some, the cause is certain foods, scented bath and body products, stress, the weather, and airborne allergens.

If you have any of the above symptoms, finding eczema cures may prove difficult. However, new research shows that natural cures are successful at eliminating eczema.

Having investigated many offerings and having found various scams, check out my findings on my website about Eczema Free Forever where I publish my findings.


Suffering from Itchy Skin ? You might want to hold off on that pot of Oilatum and read this…

When it was confirmed that Rachel Anderson did in fact have eczema – rather than just dry, itchy skin that could be treated with copious amounts of different creams and ointments, as is the initial prescriptions handed down during early stages – she had to suffer in another way as well; something that childhood eczema sufferers could only relate to if really pushed, which was the humiliation amongst school friends.

She suffered the torment of the usual name-calling such as leper and creep as well as having the embarrassment during summer months when more skin was exposed. And all the while there was no real treatment for eczema but rather, just the symptoms it brought.

When this happened to her own son – who also started with the itchy skin, prescribed eczema treatment such as Oilatum in the first instance, etc, etc – it made her sit up and experiment a little with her interest of natural medicine and herbal remedies. It was quite by chance she found something that worked; and worked well.

Her son’s itchy skin began to disappear along with the red, blotchy skin patches he had. He felt more energetic at his school and became generally more calmer and carefree, just as “ordinary” children should be.

What Rachel soon realised is that she had created natural remedies for eczema in the first instance but better still, today can state that she has a cure for eczema; and a permanent one at that.

You see, what Rachel knew is that most of the treatment for eczema only really treats the symptom, not the root cause. She also knew that any sustainable eczema treatment could only logically work if induced rather than rubbed on – due to the fact many don’t see in that eczema is NOT a skin condition, but rather an internal immune system problem. Hit this head-on and you’re likely to get somewhere.

Rachel Anderson has written a book on her experiences and gives away her cure for eczema. We are reviewing her book over a few articles – having seen many others “claim” wonderful things but not delivering (in our opinion). You can see her story here. Her book is entitled “Eczema Free Forever”.


Eczema Free Forever – If you have itchy skin or are in search of eczema treatment, will this do it ?

Rachel Anderson was told by the medical profession that she would never cure her eczema and then one day in her adult-life she discovered something that was to permanently become a cure for eczema, which inspired her to write about her experience and that of her son – who also started out with the itchy skin, used countless pots of Oilatum in the beginning as a form of eczema treatment and so on. Rachel has called her book “Eczema Free Forever”.

This book talks about natural remedies for eczema, but do they work ? Read what WE have discovered about this book before you even think of buying it…..

There have been many books written on the “so-called” cure for eczema and we have reviewed many of them feeling more than a little suspicious with what’s stated and professed to actually work. Indeed some have just been outright dangerous, so when this book came to our attention we naturally wanted to see what it was all about.

The first thing we discovered quite shocked us (I should say that we are all well-versed on this subject matter) in that Rachel Anderson accepts that eczema itself is NOT a skin disease, but rather an issue with the immune system which can cause the simplest of things to make skin flare up. We particularly like her logic in thinking in so far as that if the problem manifests itself INSIDE the body, why should anyone expect a few potent creams and ointments on the outside of the body treat nothing more than the symptom rather than the root cause. Top marks Rachel.

It was in fact her son that inspired her to explore natural remedies for eczema, but little did she know she was actually embarking on a cure for eczema – and if she did, this could put “paid” to all the past treatment for eczema by way of Oilatum and other symptom-crushers for itchy skin.

In our next article we will go a little further into her book “Eczema Free Forever”, but in the meantime you can read Rachel Anderson’s story here.
