i believe i posted before in this thread long ago i have eczema too but luckily for me it isnt very serious as some cases i still can live regularly...i come to realise that diet plays a part (not very sure but thats what i observe) when i eat stuff like hotdogs and potato chips i tend to have outbreaks but when i dont, my skin seems perfectly fine. any one experience it too?

prednisolone is an oral steroid that suppresses ur immune system so that ur eczema doesnt flare up. doctors usually prescribe this drug where the is a bad flare up, to quickly bring things down

it definitely helps a lot, but u cannot take it on long term basis as there are side effects

yea the doctor listed out a few other kind of medications for me but i guess prednisolone was the best option though it contained steroids but i guess it was the fastest to kick in.

anyway fret not guys, the doctor did say majority would out grow eczema at certain age :/

Not really leh, they say dont eat those seafood like crab,prawn,sotong blah blah, but for me it's like can eat is can eat la, only something eat suay thn with outbreak.
For me it's more of the sun,dirt,sweat factor

It writes on the bottle "formulated for atopic skin". "soothes the skin of people with atopic dermatitis and eczema". It didn't specify which one.

dont let it get worst thn the red flares man if not it will spread even more... at least that's for me...
anyway if the flare is really bad i think you can go to the doctors to get a jab, the last time during my bmt my arms flare up until dam red, got a jab from my camp's mo and the flare when off withing the day it was quite good... but not sure what was the jab called
