[quote=Anonymous]I have exzema and it's not really like something that does go away.  It comes and goes according to things like stress or just stages of life.  At various times my body has been more or less susceptible to it, and at other times I"ve outgrown it.  So, I'm not sure if you are really going to be able to get it to "go away" if you know what I mean?  Just control it the best you can but don't let it stress you out too much; it doesn't mean you are failing or missing something or being a negligent mom, you know?  I just offer that in hopes of being helpful.  Lots of times I do feel like  people stress out re these types of things, but I just do the best I can:  keep moisturized (with nonscented moisturizers!), keep bathing to a minimum, etc. to avoid excessive dryness, avoid any irritants (this varies from person to person) and that is about all you can do (shrug).  I hope this is coming across as helpful b/c I really do mean it that way.  Lest you think, well ,maybe you don't have it that bady. . .I do, I really do:  as a kid I'd literally be walking around with bloody feet (painful!!!!!!) from all of the exzema cracks on the bottoms of my feet during summers at the pool. . .it HURT, I tell ya. But, shrug, what can ya really do?  (?)  Well, I hope this helps. . .????  GOOD LUCK!  It sounds like you really are trying your best! :)[/quote]
