For reasons stated in step 4, do not mix your clothes with other non-cotton clothes when you do your laundry. Dermatologist recommended for sensitive skin is the detergent we recommend. Do not over dry your clothes in the dryer. Temperature and Humidity Heat and dryness will definitely aggravate eczema, so keep the house, especially your bedroom, on the cool side, and use a humidifier when the air is too dry. Be aware, however, that an overly humid environment can encourage dust mites to thrive, which will worsen allergies such as hay fever and asthma.
Few people realize that humidity can change rapidly within hour.
Eczema patients typically have very dry skin due to lack of prostaglandins and overuse of lotion, which has become extremely sensitive to low humidity. Many topical creams contain harsh chemicals that could change the complexion of the affected skin permanently, so use them sparingly. We recommend that you get a few empty vitamin bottles, fill them with water, and then freeze them in the freezer. Placing these bottles filled with frozen ice directly on the affected skin could be the most effective and economical way to fight the unbearable itching. It is impossible to ask eczema sufferers not to scratch their skin, since the itch is very intense.
