What is a home remedy for ecema?
Answers:
Hi pangier12, you need know that there are three common types of eczema: atopic, irritant contact and allergic contact dermatitis. Generally speaking, eczema is caused by inflammation producing cells that travel to the skin and release chemicals, making the skin dry, flakey, itchy and red.
Since eczema severely dries out your skin, the most direct treatment is to help your skin regain it’s capacity for moisture retention. As only you restore the elasticity, healing begins at the cellular level and the cells get better able to retain the moisture and keep it from escaping.
Shea Butter is a wonderful agent for revitalizing your skin cells so that they regain their moisture retention capacity! It is absorbed very rapidly into the skin and penetrates all the skin layers.
Herbal therapy is a mild but long lasting alternative for eczema treatment. Many herbs are known for their beneficial qualities in the treatment of eczema such as: Burdock, Calendula, St. John Wort, Chamomile, Chickweed, Yarrow, Nettle, Licorice. They can be used as teas, tinctures or for topical treatment.
Since eczema is a complex skin disease one single herb is not enough to relieve the symptoms of the eczema or eradicate the disease. A complex mixture of beneficial herbs is more likely to succeed in the treatment.
The antioxidant therapy has been successfully used in the prevention and treatment of different skin diseases, which usually are characterized by a high percentage of free radicals at the site of the affected areas. A good example of natural antioxidants is Sea Buckthorn and Grape seed oils. They contain a wide range of antioxidants such as vitamin E, A, C, selenium, beta carotene, anthocyanidins, which can be beneficial in the case of eczema and other skin disorders.
In conclusion: Natural alternative may be longer than the conventional solution for eczema treatment but much safer for the skin and health in general.
