      I don’t think so, me, my dad and my sisters get it. It tends to come and go and can be made worse by things like biological washing powders. It can be something that you will grow out of but most of time its there for good. You should always try a few different creams, because different people react diffrently and you need to find one that works for you! Sorry, but I know how it feels!!

      Well unfortunately there is no cure for eczema, but there are things that can relieve the symptoms. Most of these are creams, but apparently there are also corticosteroid tablets you can take if you have really severe eczema and the creams don’t work. Your doctor will be able to tell you what the best option for you is.

      Hope it gets better soon! 🙂
