Since exploring what has been causing my eczema and the different types of treatment so widely available, this journey has been an educational one. After discovering I suffered from eczema as a small child, I learnt I did not start having this until after having childhood injections. Coincidental or a link, I may never know. I eventually grew out of the childhood eczema and then it reoccurred in later adult years. I am not too sure why this has happened or if anyone else has experienced a similar situation?

I am not too sure if Eczema can be cured, wherever I have read apparently not.  However, I have been doing some research on how to control and ease the symptoms. Also I have received some very good suggestions from our loyal customers. So thank you all for your feedback.
