Thank you for your videos about eczema. I had eczema develop on my hands in March 2020, I have it mostly under control but it’s still annoying. But the frustration is with the dermatologist (that my insurance covers). All she said was “eczema can’t be cured, here’s some steroid cream” and recommended an occlusive moisturizer (that had fragrance???) and basically like, you don’t need to come back unless you need more steroid cream. I don’t even think she looked at my hand because I wasn’t even sure I had eczema! I learn much more on videos like this because I’m just brushed off by the derm.
I experienced the exact same thing! Like you, I never knew about eczema until 2020 and have it on my hands. My derm also just gave me a prescription for steroid cream and wanted to run a bunch of tests on my allergies..although a good idea never suggested avoiding fragrances, etc..I've learned so much more about treating my eczema online .. no fragrances, dyes, wool, and checking if products have the seal from the National Eczema Association have been a blessing in getting my eczema under control. I've learned in three months what my doc couldn't figure out in three years! A special thank you! Dr. Dray 🌹
This was so insightful. I once tried to handle a flair up on my own and thought I was doing ok. I went to my derm thinking I had it under control and he was like nope you're pretty bad and ended up on cycloporine.
I just read the title, I want to thank you for educating us! My daughter has bumps on her elbows and I was told it is eczema, so I felt compelled to see your video
I just realized I’ve been using a skin care regimen my whole life 😂. Having eczema as a very small child I was taught how to prevent irritating the moisture barrier by using dove sensitive and eucerine Cream, etc…. Im 43 and just realized this 🤣
Thank you Dr Dray for sharing this informative video . When my son was younger his pediatrician mentioned at that time he had Atopic Dermatitis. Eczema, Asthma, food allergies, cats and some dogs can cause allergies as well. My son is older now, he still does have eczema but not as much as he did when he was younger. The Cetaphil Restoraderm creamy body wash & moisturizer are the products that my son still purchases regularly. Fragrance free products are always in my house, my skin is sensitive too. Take care everyone 😊
I have been full Carnivore for 2 1/2 years now and I lost 50 pounds and all my skin and liver issues have completely healed. I also have zero inflammation left in my back from a herniated L4L5 and Arthritis.
So interesting how far the medical community has come with eczema. My doctor said I had “mother’s hand” after the birth of my son 46 years ago. I suffered for years trying to control it. Doctor said to wear rubber gloves, and didn’t soak/wash diapers in ammonia (yep, that’s what we did back then!). Believe it or not, years later when tanning in a tan salon getting ready for trip to the islands, the eczema was healed. Doctor said UV rays helped!! Crazy! But it did subside and has never returned. P.S. I DO NOT visit tan salons any more!!! I drink a glass of apple cider vinager, baking soda and a bit of honey to taste to control the Ph balance in my blood, which seems to keep my skin at its best. Thank you, Dr. Dray. I wish I had you 46 years ago! 🧡
I also recommend wearing gloves when doing your face skin care routine if you have hand eczema. It made a big difference for me. All this water, soap, cleanser, active ingredients don't need to end up on my sensitive hands as well.
Can you do an AM and PM anti age skin care routine for atopic/eczema. I’m 53 and atopic crept into my life 5 yrs ago. Finally diagnosed 2 yrs ago. Great video def going to get those products to have on hand. Sounds like the cooling one may work on eyelids when it invades them. 😢 I had to use steroids a few times and inHATE doing that. Yes under Derm supervision as u always reminds us. hugs from Tampa
Please Dr. Dray, make a video on how to treat dehydrated skin in drier climates. I feel like no one is talking about it. I live in an environment where it gets very cold and dry during cooler months. Even though I seal in serums with thicker balms and ointments, the moisture still seems to evaporate and leave my skin irritated from dehydration. I want to be able to use products that gives the same plumping and anti-aging effects as HA and different peptides without leaving my skin in a worse condition. Thanks!
Thank you so much for so much great info Dr Dray! My preteen has had eczema for the last 7 or so years at first misdiagnosed as molloscum 😢… odd how he didn’t have it as a baby but suddenly in elementary school. it’s def not as severe but so stubborn and so itchy for him :(. Thank you for recommending the Cetaphil Restoraderm line- just ordered the gel and cream to incorporate it into our aveeno/aquaphor regimen especially going into colder temps to come in the Midwest. Appreciate the content so much!
Most ever useful information, nobody has ever told me before, many many thanks, I finally understand what happens to me my very best regards to you and endless thanks really
Such interesting points about applying deodorants when battling eczema flair ups. I was once misdiagnosed and given an antibiotic cream that made my skin blister. It was very uncomfortable. You provide great guidance, thank you!
@@Shakashack2022 I personally have had good results with the clinique antiperspirant. I think they have a roll on and a solid stick, my husband and I use and like both. They're fragrance free, one of the few I have found, and have minimal ingredients and it has never irritated my eczema.
This line of Cetaphil haven't yet entered my country. But now I'm using Aiken Derma Care (sensitive skin rescue) hope it works well on my eczema. Thank you so much Dr for this vid 💞🙌🏻
Hey, I would love if you could cover ways of healing post-inflammatory hypopigmentation. As far as I know there aren't great, inexpensive solutions. I would be really interested in learning about cutting edge treatments.
@@DrDrayzday Thanks for answering! I didn't know that. I've had some post-inflammatory spots that have been around for at least 9 months. maybe longer. What is the average time course for resolution? I thought it could be permanent when the melanin producing cells were destroyed, but I might be wrong.
Thank you so much Dr. Dray for your information on eczema. It is so very helpful and you've answered all my questions regarding this skin condition. I have been wanting to ask you questions and saw your video. I couldn't believe everything I needed to know, you have answered all in your video. Thank you so much. Your video has helped me understand eczema more better. 💯👌👍🙏
Just came back from work trip in San Diego, ran to target to get the outfit you wore recently but didn’t see it but got a cozy sweater. Really nice clothes there! I couldn’t find Cetiphil redness face cream I was hoping to purchase. Also But got Briogeo shine and frizz shampoo and hair mask to try. Target was a fun experience. Thanks for the Eczema series. Have a happy Thursday 💙💙
Thank you for the video. Dealing now with the aftermath of the water blister eczema on the finger and didn't dry in between fingers properly and have cracked skin between the finger. Your videos have been very helpful. Thank you.
So happy with today's topic. (I'm in a pink sweater too) It'd be helpful if you put up each symptom picture. I had sensitive skin since birth, and eczema(mainly around the cheekbone ) started after menstruating started(age of 14), getting more sensible as I aged. Although this month is Eczema month, I started eating processed foods again. Once surprisingly cleared skin with only three weeks of a clean diet, now getting dull and bumpy gradually. I don't substitute whole-day meals with 500g of packaged granola anymore(confessing I used to do this on holidays), but it's so hard to stop crisps, MUJI snacks, or packaged bread, as they are too easy and accessible and addictive😅.
I developed ezema at the age of 62. Seems to have come from either the medications/chemo I've beem taking for brain cancer that started last year and had to have removed twice this year. As for deoderant, i stopped using it years and years ago. I use baking soda for that. i simply wet my underarms and put my fingers in the baking soda and rub it under my arms. Works great! Thanks again for another great video Dr.
Dr Dray, do satin pillowcases offer the same hair and skin benefits as silk ones? Thank you so much!! Yesterday I dreamed I was taking a skincare class and you were the teacher. It was so fun!
Hi, Satin finish fabric can be made from natural fibre (silk satin), or synthetic fibre (polyester satin), or a combination of both (silk & polyester blend satin). For pillowcases I only use pure (100%) silk pillowcases. Silk thread is made from the fibre produced by silk worms, who eat mulberry leaves. So you may also see it called pure/100% mulberry silk. With silk satin (being a natural breathable fibre) your face/neck/head won't get as hot & sweaty as it would with a polyester satin. Pure silk satin is superior to polyester satin, so is more expensive. I hope this helps. 👱♀️❤
These products are so pricey. Might as well go on dupixent, considering how much even moisturizers are costing. Please make a video on light therapy for eczema, dupixent, l-histadine,
I had a cough for 1 month and I kept calling the doctor but they refused to let me see one, they only gave me a weak cough medicine that didn’t help. I finally hot an appointment 3 weeks into my disease and then the worst symptoms were gone and they didn’t do any blood test and look at my phlegm, just assumed it was a virus and not bacteria and they prescribed a stronger cough medicine. When I got home after the appointment I got a fever and green phlegm! And when I took the cough medicine, I had it last year with no problem, I became dizzy and threw up all day like an overdose even though I followed the dosage! And then I got better! Maybe they should have told me to throw up a whole day to get better instead of telling me yo drink water and tea!😂😭 And now I have eczema😂😭 and it doesn’t want to go away! No one believes me that I use moisturizer several times a day and cortisone cream!
Thank you, Dr Dray! I was wondering how you treat dermatitis when a person breathes in scents? I can't use scented candles. What do you do if scents come your way like highly scented dryer sheets or laundry detergent. My neighbors have their laundry room next to my backyard. The itching is intolerable.
If only I could see a dermatologist. Our healthcare system requires a referral which is very hard to get. One must first demonstrate a problem that they feel needs a doctor’s attention.
I've had severe itching from the top of my head to my feet. I finally got an appt. with the one and only dermatologist within 50 miles of me and he's like most of these other doctors. I'm 75 and never had this until about 6 months ago. He wants to put me on some med that is a shot twice a month (that I will have to give myself). It's actually for asthma but has proven to benefit eczema. He says that is the only thing he can offer! Wonder what he gave his patients prior to them making this drug??? Anyway I'm going to try Cetaphil.....I've got everything else.
As someone with 7+ years of Seborrheic dermatitis & dandruff (and recently also diagnosed with eczema), I have to add that retinols/tretinoin, salicylic acid, and many other types of exfoliating products can worsen or even trigger seb dermatitis and eczema flares. Even despite multiple forms of treatment my seb derm was worsening after I started using tretinoin, and I had to go to 2 other dermatologists before I got an explanation. I'd been using retinoid and SA on/off for 4+ years and only now just after my eczema diagnosis did ANYONE tell me this issue (apparently this is fairly well-known with eczema, but less so with seb derm), so I'm pretty frustrated, and I can imagine other people out there flailing with their skincare routine wondering what may be going wrong. If you have issues with facial seb dermatitis worsening with retinol, niacinamide, or SA, PLEASE avoid these ingredients for a few weeks and see if your symptoms improve! I feel so silly that I never realized this before.
Doc I just found the best thing to Stop the itch, it worked faster and better than Benadryl- Cetaphil cleanser (I used the Walmart Equate version). I have leaky gut issues and was having a bad flare up, I decided to wash my hand with cold water and use the gentle cleanser instead of soap- it worked immediately to stop the itch when it was on my skin. I was so surprised. Can you talk about why?
I really impressed with ur excellent information about atopic dermatitis. I would like to ask you that why my face becomes red or pink sometimes and it goes with time and again come back after few days. Pl answer. Thanks 🙏
Greetings Dr Dray hope u r well n 🖐Hello Every1 n Happy Thursday😀n what a Wonderful Vid…. thanks n This is Gonna b so Helpful🔥👍n Continued Blessings to All💜….
Both of my babies have very bad eczema ( they got it from me). My 2yr old on her hands is the worst and it never goes away because she is a toddler so of course she is exploring everything with her hands. Now my 7mo old has very bad eczema on his face and none of the treatments are working, I rarely take him out because everyone always asks what’s that on his face 😢
What is a good antiperspirant for eczema pits? And at night, how do you recommend layer application.. antiperspirant first, then eczema cream? (I have the Gold Bond eczema cream.) Last, ok to apply eczema cream everytime pit itches, or is that harmful? Thank you!
My son has severe ecxzema since 6 months of age. 🥺 deffentely a bumby road non stop itchiness and saying to himself he doesnt like the way he looks 🥲. Hopefully our insurance covers dupxient soon its my last hope ❤️
Hi. I’m sure you’ve heard all the creams and lotions before, but have you tried the CeraVe in the tub yet? When my daughter was 4 months old, her body was covered with eczema. I tried everything the derm provided me including steroids. Tried all sorts of lotions, ointments and such. I tried the Cerave tub and it all cleared up. It’s amazing. She still gets eczema, but I lather her up and no longer use steroid creams.
💙❤💙❤Hello Dr Dray! I have a BIG question to me 😆😂What should we wash our eye area with when using a Salicylic Acid face wash? 👁With a gentle cleanser? Btw I think only water would be not enough because my eyelids get a bit greasy you know 😁
Ive had eczema on my arms my whole life but never had any issues with it, it was never itch, never really flared etc. But just last year I developed contact dermatitis on my eyelids, that healed up with some hydrocortisone cream but then For the next 8 months or so I started getting a small dry patch on my forehead that kept growing and then moved down to my cheeks and I had no idea what was happening. The patches started getting itchy and red and felt like they were burning and eventually developed this yellow film on top and I felt horrible.... I hate using steroid creams but the only thing that seems to help is the 0.5% hydrocortisone... Still trying to wean myself off it with skin barrier creams and eczema creams..
I had something similar. I finally got patch tested for skin allergies. Turned out I am allergic to gold, nickel, and cobalt. Started using all VANICREAM products & avoiding the previous, and it was a life saver! God Bless 🙏🏻😇
I have xerotic eczema which is extreme dryness of the skin but I didnt know it was eczema and no matter how much moisturizer or hyaluronic acid I put on my skin, I could physically feel like there were cracks on my skin from the dryness.
I had really itchy eczema in 4th grade and it sucked. I suddenly started getting really itchy. I noticed I had these little patches of bumps in a few places, and the itch was so bad I couldn't focus on class because scratching it made it more itchy. Unfortunately it was in my crotch and thigh area, and I think a bit on my arms. Saw doc and used Lanacort until it went away. I still have no idea how that happened and haven't had it since. My parents said when I was a baby I had spots or a rash where they had to bathe me in some kind of medication to fix it, so maybe I'm predisposed for skin issues :0
When I was a kid (60 years ago), I had eczema all over my body. I had to get the cream (Kenalog?) spread on the eczema and then my body was wrapped in Saran Wrap.
I know you've said fragrance can be a problem ingredient but what about Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate. I'm pretty sure I got eczema on my face from a "facial" sunscreen and am wondering which of these two ingredients did it. (Fragrance has never bothered me before).
My 7 year old daughters eczema is around her eyes, mouth, arms, behind her knees and her private area. Not only that she has seasonal allergies which flares up her eczema around her face. And it’s summer right now, mosquitoes are flying about and she’s the type that would get bit while everyone around her isn’t. And when she gets bitten by mosquitoes, it swells(apparently she’s allergic). Her thighs are swollen, her arms are swollen, her ankles are swollen because of the bites and im worried that her face would get bitten next. All this would make her eczema worse. Can’t even type properly because of how overwhelming it is😢
Is cold atmospheric plasma a good and safe option to treat atopic dermatitis scars on skin of color? What could be the possible side effects? Is it permanent solution for it? Please write back doc🙏🏼
Lots of useful information in this video! I never had a severe eczema (atopic dermatitis) outbreak until I was 22 or 23 years old in a high stress environment - I get eczema almost exclusively on my face, and I looked like a reptile I was so scaly😆.
only thing that helps my son and my sons dad is antihistamine for itch. Best cream to help eczema is eperderm cream and aveeno cream. Sanex is a great soap to use for eczema. Hydrocortisone is my recommended steroid but dont use steroid a lot. Actually thins the skin once twice a week but a week no recommend.
I bought the flare-up recovery cream after watching this vid. Just got it today and used it and it acted like an exfoliant. It literally left the exfoliated skin all over my leggings after rubbing it into my hands lol. Not what I was expecting. It was super weird. Anyone know if this is normal? And no, I do not have dehydrated skin on my hands. They’re frequently moisturized. Again, so weird.
My eczema is all on my face especially forehead. Dr Dray how do people with Eczema have an anti-aging routine then? I see that retinoid causes me flare ups.
Is cold atmospheric plasma safe to treat atopic dermatitis for skin of color?? And what are the possible side effects of it? PLEASE write back @Drdrayzday
What are the first two steps in fighting excema. I get that the restorative cream is the third. And is the cerave body cream or ucerin cream with urea as good as the restorative cream? I an 72 and have the coin type of excema on legs and arms that start as a little red dot and then grow and seem to grow little bumps under the skin :-(. Thank you.
Can you please please make a video on hypopigmentation specifically, i am facing hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation both! What if i use serum for hyperpigmentation. Will it worsen my hypopigmentation spots? Please need your help desperately.😢
Was diagnosed with dyshidrosis I think that's how it's pronounced it has ruined my entire life both hands I wake up and it's almost like the sores won't go away
Honestly I don’t know why all of a sudden I’ve broken out into a flare of eczema. I’m in my 30s and I work on healthcare and I do wash my hands a lot but I’ve never had this problem until now. Perhaps the stress is causing a flare up?
Have you tried the Skinsmart hypochlorous spray? She recommends it in earlier vids to help in a pinch if you get eczema from sweat. I don’t have a lot of trouble with this but I did get the spray for an eye issue and I’ve tried it after workouts a few times. Seems like it could help.
She's addressed percentages in videos before. She and others like Lab Muffin say formulation is more important than percentages. See her vlog: does percent zinc in sunscreen matter?
as a kid when I first had an eczema flare up it was on my elbows and I still sometimes get it there but starting in October i started getting it around my eyes and as a 20 yr old this sucks I’m already struggling from acne and now this too
Is it possible to have one single recurring eczema water blister? I feel like I frequently get one little clear, itchy blister on my pointer finger that usually resolves on its own but it’s super itchy when it first comes on.
Nummuler ezcema sounds like what I have on my neck but I was diagnosed with discoid ezcema and it became infected twice from the intense itching and was leaking yellow pus 🤮. Wondering if they are the same thing or completely different.
Eczema awareness month is in the same month as Halloween. So fitting 😱🫣😩

Dr Dray, do satin pillowcases offer the same hair and skin benefits as silk ones? Thank you so much!!
Yesterday I dreamed I was taking a skincare class and you were the teacher. It was so fun!
They reduce friction
Hi, Satin finish fabric can be made from natural fibre (silk satin), or synthetic fibre (polyester satin), or a combination of both (silk & polyester blend satin). For pillowcases I only use pure (100%) silk pillowcases. Silk thread is made from the fibre produced by silk worms, who eat mulberry leaves. So you may also see it called pure/100% mulberry silk. With silk satin (being a natural breathable fibre) your face/neck/head won't get as hot & sweaty as it would with a polyester satin. Pure silk satin is superior to polyester satin, so is more expensive. I hope this helps.

I had a cough for 1 month and I kept calling the doctor but they refused to let me see one, they only gave me a weak cough medicine that didn’t help. I finally hot an appointment 3 weeks into my disease and then the worst symptoms were gone and they didn’t do any blood test and look at my phlegm, just assumed it was a virus and not bacteria and they prescribed a stronger cough medicine. When I got home after the appointment I got a fever and green phlegm! And when I took the cough medicine, I had it last year with no problem, I became dizzy and threw up all day like an overdose even though I followed the dosage! And then I got better! Maybe they should have told me to throw up a whole day to get better instead of telling me yo drink water and tea!😂😭
And now I have eczema😂😭 and it doesn’t want to go away! No one believes me that I use moisturizer several times a day and cortisone cream!
Thank you, Dr Dray! I was wondering how you treat dermatitis when a person breathes in scents? I can't use scented candles. What do you do if scents come your way like highly scented dryer sheets or laundry detergent. My neighbors have their laundry room next to my backyard. The itching is intolerable.
Great information, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us!
Thank you! This was so helpful and I purchased the products!❤️
If only I could see a dermatologist. Our healthcare system requires a referral which is very hard to get. One must first demonstrate a problem that they feel needs a doctor’s attention.
An annual skin check doesn’t count?
thanks for great insight as always. love your new hair cut and makeup. 🌻🎃🌻😍😍😍
Hii there! May I ask what actives I can use to reduce inflammation and hyperpigmentation? I have have dry eczema prone skin.
Thank you, Dr. Dray, for your detailed explanations.
I've had severe itching from the top of my head to my feet. I finally got an appt. with the one and only dermatologist within 50 miles of me and he's like most of these other doctors. I'm 75 and never had this until about 6 months ago. He wants to put me on some med that is a shot twice a month (that I will have to give myself). It's actually for asthma but has proven to benefit eczema. He says that is the only thing he can offer! Wonder what he gave his patients prior to them making this drug??? Anyway I'm going to try Cetaphil.....I've got everything else.
Thank you for this video! Is this regimen safe and effective for infants suffering from eczema instead of using steroids?
Thank you for all this information!🥰
How can you go about treating seborrheic dermatitis on the face? Everything I read talks about the hair.
As someone with 7+ years of Seborrheic dermatitis & dandruff (and recently also diagnosed with eczema), I have to add that retinols/tretinoin, salicylic acid, and many other types of exfoliating products can worsen or even trigger seb dermatitis and eczema flares. Even despite multiple forms of treatment my seb derm was worsening after I started using tretinoin, and I had to go to 2 other dermatologists before I got an explanation.
I'd been using retinoid and SA on/off for 4+ years and only now just after my eczema diagnosis did ANYONE tell me this issue (apparently this is fairly well-known with eczema, but less so with seb derm), so I'm pretty frustrated, and I can imagine other people out there flailing with their skincare routine wondering what may be going wrong. If you have issues with facial seb dermatitis worsening with retinol, niacinamide, or SA, PLEASE avoid these ingredients for a few weeks and see if your symptoms improve! I feel so silly that I never realized this before.
Thank you Dr Dray! I need answers on my eczema
Thanks for watching
@@DrDrayzday thank you for taking the time to do this for us!
Doc I just found the best thing to
Stop the itch, it worked faster and better than Benadryl- Cetaphil cleanser (I used the Walmart Equate version). I have leaky gut issues and was having a bad flare up, I decided to wash my hand with cold water and use the gentle cleanser instead of soap- it worked immediately to stop the itch when it was on my skin. I was so surprised. Can you talk about why?
Thank you for your video! My eczema is caused by contact with nickel. So is the cool touch applicator of Cetaphil nickel-free?
I really impressed with ur excellent information about atopic dermatitis. I would like to ask you that why my face becomes red or pink sometimes and it goes with time and again come back after few days. Pl answer.
Thanks 🙏
Saving for later. Thanks for the info!

Both of my babies have very bad eczema ( they got it from me). My 2yr old on her hands is the worst and it never goes away because she is a toddler so of course she is exploring everything with her hands. Now my 7mo old has very bad eczema on his face and none of the treatments are working, I rarely take him out because everyone always asks what’s that on his face 😢
What is a good antiperspirant for eczema pits? And at night, how do you recommend layer application.. antiperspirant first, then eczema cream? (I have the Gold Bond eczema cream.) Last, ok to apply eczema cream everytime pit itches, or is that harmful? Thank you!
My son has severe ecxzema since 6 months of age. 🥺 deffentely a bumby road non stop itchiness and saying to himself he doesnt like the way he looks 🥲. Hopefully our insurance covers dupxient soon its my last hope ❤️
Hi. I’m sure you’ve heard all the creams and lotions before, but have you tried the CeraVe in the tub yet? When my daughter was 4 months old, her body was covered with eczema. I tried everything the derm provided me including steroids. Tried all sorts of lotions, ointments and such. I tried the Cerave tub and it all cleared up. It’s amazing. She still gets eczema, but I lather her up and no longer use steroid creams.
🥰🥰🥰 Thank you Dr.Dray
Thanks for watching
Best shampoo for scalp eczema? best medicine to ask for with Dr
💙❤💙❤Hello Dr Dray! I have a BIG question to me 😆😂What should we wash our eye area with when using a Salicylic Acid face wash? 👁With a gentle cleanser? Btw I think only water would be not enough because my eyelids get a bit greasy you know 😁
Gentle cleanser
@@DrDrayzday Oh my goodness that was so fast thank you very much !!
Can you provide information on how to treat sensitive or private area eczema.
I don't know about eczema but ob/gyn dr. jennifer lincoln has a video on dry skin in that area.
Ive had eczema on my arms my whole life but never had any issues with it, it was never itch, never really flared etc. But just last year I developed contact dermatitis on my eyelids, that healed up with some hydrocortisone cream but then For the next 8 months or so I started getting a small dry patch on my forehead that kept growing and then moved down to my cheeks and I had no idea what was happening. The patches started getting itchy and red and felt like they were burning and eventually developed this yellow film on top and I felt horrible.... I hate using steroid creams but the only thing that seems to help is the 0.5% hydrocortisone... Still trying to wean myself off it with skin barrier creams and eczema creams..
I had something similar. I finally got patch tested for skin allergies. Turned out I am allergic to gold, nickel, and cobalt. Started using all VANICREAM products & avoiding the previous, and it was a life saver!
God Bless 🙏🏻😇
Happy Thursday Dr Dray…see you tomorrow x🤩💙🎃
You too!
I have xerotic eczema which is extreme dryness of the skin but I didnt know it was eczema and no matter how much moisturizer or hyaluronic acid I put on my skin, I could physically feel like there were cracks on my skin from the dryness.
I had really itchy eczema in 4th grade and it sucked. I suddenly started getting really itchy. I noticed I had these little patches of bumps in a few places, and the itch was so bad I couldn't focus on class because scratching it made it more itchy. Unfortunately it was in my crotch and thigh area, and I think a bit on my arms. Saw doc and used Lanacort until it went away. I still have no idea how that happened and haven't had it since. My parents said when I was a baby I had spots or a rash where they had to bathe me in some kind of medication to fix it, so maybe I'm predisposed for skin issues :0
When I was a kid (60 years ago), I had eczema all over my body. I had to get the cream (Kenalog?) spread on the eczema and then my body was wrapped in Saran Wrap.
I know you've said fragrance can be a problem ingredient but what about Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate. I'm pretty sure I got eczema on my face from a "facial" sunscreen and am wondering which of these two ingredients did it. (Fragrance has never bothered me before).
My 7 year old daughters eczema is around her eyes, mouth, arms, behind her knees and her private area. Not only that she has seasonal allergies which flares up her eczema around her face. And it’s summer right now, mosquitoes are flying about and she’s the type that would get bit while everyone around her isn’t. And when she gets bitten by mosquitoes, it swells(apparently she’s allergic). Her thighs are swollen, her arms are swollen, her ankles are swollen because of the bites and im worried that her face would get bitten next. All this would make her eczema worse. Can’t even type properly because of how overwhelming it is😢
Is cold atmospheric plasma a good and safe option to treat atopic dermatitis scars on skin of color? What could be the possible side effects? Is it permanent solution for it? Please write back doc🙏🏼
Lots of useful information in this video! I never had a severe eczema (atopic dermatitis) outbreak until I was 22 or 23 years old in a high stress environment - I get eczema almost exclusively on my face, and I looked like a reptile I was so scaly😆.
only thing that helps my son and my sons dad is antihistamine for itch. Best cream to help eczema is eperderm cream and aveeno cream. Sanex is a great soap to use for eczema. Hydrocortisone is my recommended steroid but dont use steroid a lot. Actually thins the skin once twice a week but a week no recommend.
I bought the flare-up recovery cream after watching this vid. Just got it today and used it and it acted like an exfoliant. It literally left the exfoliated skin all over my leggings after rubbing it into my hands lol. Not what I was expecting. It was super weird. Anyone know if this is normal? And no, I do not have dehydrated skin on my hands. They’re frequently moisturized. Again, so weird.
My eczema is all on my face especially forehead. Dr Dray how do people with Eczema have an anti-aging routine then? I see that retinoid causes me flare ups.
Excellent video.
hope you're all having a good Thursday xo
You too!!
Is cold atmospheric plasma safe to treat atopic dermatitis for skin of color?? And what are the possible side effects of it? PLEASE write back @Drdrayzday
THANK YOU 💜
I'm doing a skin patch test this coming week praying for results of any kind supposed to be a new skin allergy test
What are the first two steps in fighting excema. I get that the restorative cream is the third. And is the cerave body cream or ucerin cream with urea as good as the restorative cream? I an 72 and have the coin type of excema on legs and arms that start as a little red dot and then grow and seem to grow little bumps under the skin :-(. Thank you.
She mentions the 1st 2 earlier in the video.😊
The audacity of me for getting my first adult flare up on my face and scalp during eczema awareness month
Can you please please make a video on hypopigmentation specifically, i am facing hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation both! What if i use serum for hyperpigmentation. Will it worsen my hypopigmentation spots? Please need your help desperately.😢
i have at least three videos on this...search my channel "dr dray white spots" or "dr dray hypopigmentation"
@@DrDrayzday thankyou ♥️
Was diagnosed with dyshidrosis I think that's how it's pronounced it has ruined my entire life both hands I wake up and it's almost like the sores won't go away
Honestly I don’t know why all of a sudden I’ve broken out into a flare of eczema. I’m in my 30s and I work on healthcare and I do wash my hands a lot but I’ve never had this problem until now. Perhaps the stress is causing a flare up?
I have atopic dermatitis, breast eczema, even psoriasis. It's depressing to have these and not be able to afford a lot of products for my skin :
Happy Thursday
Happy Thursday
how to prevent hypopigmentation? Ive recently had it on my face. Is there any way to make it disappear? any products that help?
Do u recommend Dupixent for 1year olds? Any concerns I should be weary of?
Sweat is trigger for me queen of eczena here🖐🏿 thanks for this informative video Dr Dray
Common trigger for sure
What are your favorite moisturizers?
Have you tried the Skinsmart hypochlorous spray? She recommends it in earlier vids to help in a pinch if you get eczema from sweat. I don’t have a lot of trouble with this but I did get the spray for an eye issue and I’ve tried it after workouts a few times. Seems like it could help.
@@Hemmyii there’s a Walgreens version as well
@@Hemmyii what eye issue did you use it for?
Hello dr dray, I want to ask is 9% zinc oxide enough to provide an spf 50?? Pls help me
She's addressed percentages in videos before. She and others like Lab Muffin say formulation is more important than percentages. See her vlog: does percent zinc in sunscreen matter?
@@db-gb5xi ok thank u
as a kid when I first had an eczema flare up it was on my elbows and I still sometimes get it there but starting in October i started getting it around my eyes and as a 20 yr old this sucks I’m already struggling from acne and now this too
Is it possible to have one single recurring eczema water blister? I feel like I frequently get one little clear, itchy blister on my pointer finger that usually resolves on its own but it’s super itchy when it first comes on.
Nummuler ezcema sounds like what I have on my neck but I was diagnosed with discoid ezcema and it became infected twice from the intense itching and was leaking yellow pus 🤮. Wondering if they are the same thing or completely different.
Would you be willing to share your thoughts on mental masking? Super curious of your opinion on this TikTok trend
