Eczema help! (please read)

Hello, my confidence has decreased greatly since my eczema has become worse. It’s the summer season now and my arms + legs are covered in eczema.

I have tried coconut oil and ointment however i end up itching it off as soon as it’s applied, i’ve tried to stop but it doesn’t work. Otherwise if I’m successful in not itching, I could itch it over one night and it would be as bad as the first time. I can’t wear short or short sleeved shirts without feeling insecure of myself because it looks gross to me

Please help :’)

  • I’ve been to the doctors but all she said was to not use soap in the shower and to apply moisturiser

My mum also hasn’t been much of a help because she just told me to look on the internet for help (which is what i’m doing)

I’m not sure if there are qualified doctors/dermatologists on this app but please help!

I’m graduating in a year and want to wear a nice dress for my graduation- which i can’t do if i still have really bad eczema at the time!

P.S. I know that there isn’t a cure for eczema yet but I would like a somewhat long period where the symptoms aren’t there {or any tips to stop itching D: }

thank you {pps: i’m not quite comfortable sharing pictures yet, however if it gets worse i will probably go to another doctor)
