Hello sir, I have been diagnosed with eczema. Generally seen on my fingers tips and sole.taking medicines since 2 years now. And the moment I stop the meds it reappears and its more extensive and painful. Is there any way out ? I am afraid to takes antihistaminics and corticosteroid ointments cause of long term side effects. What can be done for permenant relief? Thanks!

1. Since eczema is caused due to stress and disturbed immune system thus treatment is usually for long period and as such there is no permanent relief but by improving the quality of life one can live a stress free life.

2. Take diet rich in protein,iron,folic acid, brown rice, orange, green vegetables, wheat, barley, green gram,lemon,turmeric,bitter gourd,garlic, pomegranate,nutmeg,bitter and sweet (not sour) food, dry ginger, khadira, black pepper, long pepper, old clarified butter,honey,light exercise,massage, boiled and filtered water to drink, tea, coffee(not after meals or during periods of fasting)

.Avoid raw fruits, raw radish, too much oily food, over eating, brinjal, tomatoes, soap, jaggery,coffee,sour and sweet food,oil,curd,newly harvested cereals, incompatible foods, food with heavy, unctuous and cold properties, sesame,salt,black gram, milk,lisora,makoya, day sleeping, mental stress, excessive exercise.

.vitamin e-rich food: spinach, almond oil, sweet potato, sunflower seeds, and wheat germs are good for the skin problems.
.scalp should be dandruff free.
.taking bath in sea water is very good for the skin treatment, similarly at home taking bath in Epsom salt or oatmeal containing water is also good.
.because skin infection of any type is precipitated by stress and disturbed immune system, hence medicines like Shankhpushpi, Sarpagandha, Brahmi,alongwith Suvarn Parpati ,Ashwagandha,Shatavri, as Immuno modulators can be given.

.Aloe vera cream applied locally has given/shown encouraging results.
