turmeric, 1 teaspoon mixed in WARM water (it won't mix in cold water) 2 or three times a day should reduce the inflammation.

In an emergency when you need to scratch use really hot water on the area to release the histamine instead. It also feels better than scratching.

Also consider zinc copper balance as a possible root cause.

The best way to stop the itching is to eliminate the eczema.

Good things to start with are:

Include a large proportion of uncooked fruit and vegetables in your diet. That is eat salads and fresh fruit every day if possible. You may even have carrot juice, or other juices from time to time. The key is to have a balanced diet containing a large proportion of uncooked and fruit and vegetables.

As you mentioned, expose the skin to sunlight as much as possible.

In addition, purchase some Licorice, also called Liquorice, 1:1 liquid extract, if you can. I don't know where you live, or the availability in your area. It must be the herbal medicine, not the candy. A suggested dose is, half to one teaspoonful three times a day.

Be aware: Taking too much licorice may cause fluid retention, which is eliminated when you stop using it.

If you prefer, you could go to a herbalist and get a formula containing a number of herbs.

After using this for some time, come back and share your results.

There is more you can do, but this is a good starting point.

Chickweed is a common weed in some places. Fresh chickweed can be collected and put in a jar with olive oil. This can be left for some time (for example two months) for the active constituents from the chickweed to come out into the olive oil. This oil, infused with chickweed, can then be applied to the skin to prevent itching.

To do this, you need to live in a place where chickweed grows, and you need to be able to identify it. There is also another weed which looks very similar.

Another option is to purchase a chickweed cream or ointment, and apply this to stop the itching. Some chickweed products may be more effective than others.

Understand that this is treating the symptoms (the itching). While it is beneficial for temporary relief, it is important to treat the eczema.

There are no drugs which will permanently eliminate eczema. Doctors tell you that there is no treatment that will permanently eliminate it. So most people don't consider natural methods.

Eczema can be permanently eliminated using natural methods.

Begin with the methods I mentioned above. That is uncooked fruit and vegetables, expose the skin to sunlight, and the herb Licorice. Use these methods for some time (a few months) before beginning those below.

Historically, a classification of herbs called alterative herbs, has been used to eliminate eczema. In more recent times, some people have called these blood cleansers, or blood purifiers.

IMPORTANT

It is very important that the bowel is efficiently eliminating toxins before using alterative herbs. It is particularly important to include a large proportion of uncooked fruit and vegetables in the diet. Herbal formulas may also include herbs for the bowel.

WARNING

Using alterative herbs can make the condition worse before it becomes better, particularly if the bowel is not efficiently eliminating toxins. Some people have experienced their symptoms becoming worse, and come to the conclusion that this treatment does not work, and refused to use it any more.

If it's eczema try Aveno they have a few products out there that are safe I use them on my face. I'm sure you don't want to hear this but moisturizing really does help. I never used to do it for the same reasons you mentioned but try using less of it or do it every other day.

Hi,

There are virtually no syndromes and/or diseases that are not reversible. If you are interested in taking control of your own health [and I sincerely hope you are], the following will give you all the information you need:

Any of the discourses by Luigi Cornaro (available free online);

Any of the books by Horace Fletcher (available free online);

Any of the writings of Arnold Ehret.

Just like virtually everything else in life, it is all ultimately up to YOU.

You have all my best wishes for a successful journey and resolution,

David

Hi, I'm same as you. I live in Netherlands so my eczema flares in winter. :(

I got the idea of trying Ice on the area from a website. It actually helps! If you can google search "eczema itching at night" you might find some other suggestions.

My wife had terrible itching for years , we tried everything , finally I found Neem Oil soap, it was a miracle from God , she was 50% better in one day and now only has a problem if she uses too many soap products in a day.
It is about 4 or 5 dollars a bar but if you are suffering like she did it's worth 10x that.
She had tried Tea Tree oil and coconut oil before and they did not help , Neem Oil Soap.
