      What kind of water do you use? My son also has ezema. I tried Hyflux filter but didnt help. For sometime, I also bought bottles of mineral water for him instead of drinking boiled tap water, didnt help much.

      I am not surprised that they didn't help. They do not have the properties that the water we are using has.

      We use Kangen Water produced from a continuous electrolysis water generator that is manufactured by Enagic. It's licensed as a medical device by the Ministry of Health of Japan. For almost four decades, it's been used in 250 hospitals and clinics in Japan to help patients recover from all forms of sicknesses and diseases.

      check out the video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uib_LGrfZHc

      Do keep in mind that not all ionizers are made equal. Only Enagic's ionizer is endorsed by more than 6500 doctors from the Japanese Association of Preventive Medicine and endorsed by the President of the Ionizer body in Japan.

      I will be glad to help you and your son and share this technology with you. I can also let you try the water. It's free. PM me so that we can arrange.

      Yes, I have 1 Enagic leveluk machine at home and I have sponsored a few to buy 1 after they have seen the difference it has made in my life and the lives of my loved ones.

      It's not really expensive, considering that it is a medical product used in Japanese Hospitals to treat patients. Yes, it is owned by many millionaires and top ppl, that's because the worlds top cardiologist, who's clients includes the pope, England queen and president obama have been recommended to drink kangen water.

      I calculate it to be only $1 per day, given that the product lasts 15-20 years. (Medical Grade product, hence can last that long).

      These is a blog: http://www.drinkkangensingapore.com/

          My son has been suffering ezyma for many year. Seen many doctors included KK, Pte skin doctors and even Chinese doctors .


          I realised that all can’t help much. I personally feel that we need to observe the roots of the allegy. eg. whether is Food or environment. This need a bit of time and patience to recall back the cause of it when it flared up.

          My son went for skin pricked test and found that his cause is due to enviroment, hence it is easier for me to track. I observed that each time he wanted to sleep he feel itchy. When we are at a dusty place, he started to feel uncomfortable. From here, I know the cause, I started to buy a Good vacuum cleaner which can suck out the bed dustmite. Sun the mAttress regularly. try my best to keep house clean. we also remind him not to lie down or sit down on the floor in the public place. I requested the teacher not to let him sit on the floor in class. Lucky the teacher is kind enough to make special arrangement for him. His ezyma Is control for 2 years liao .

          I feel the best cure is to find the cause of the ezyma than wasting lots of money doing or buying all the unnecessary thing. If u all want may also can go through Polyclinic to go KK for allergy test. it may not be 100% accurate but it do help to narrow down the cause of the ezyma and observe from there. After that do all the prevention for it to flare up. This is just my own personal opinion and observant from my own son.

            My nephew suffer from eczema for a long period of time. Various medication does not works and the condition gets worst during hot weather. He is improved dramatically after taking fish oil and now his skin is smooth and tender. Glad that he does not need to scratch his skin and suffer anymore.


            Also my friend’s child has very serious eczema condition, she took fish oil + ageloc R2 and after 1 month, the condition improved and does not flare up anymore. It is always great to see a happy kid free to illness and cheerful.

              Personally,


              I started getting sensitive skin after confinement for some strange reason... (and it is not even my first or second confinements!) anyway.. then read that some of the shower gels etc we get here has harsh chemicals, so I started using organic products for my baby and myself and it really helped! I even got down to using baby shampoo! Gaia, California baby etc. I recently got Nature organics fr Iherb and I like that it is not as squeaky dry to my hair and skin compared to California baby.

              and it is just a fraction of the price. i bought fr http://www.iherb.com can use Discount code (just key under referral code 'JTM172' in your cart) - JTM172
              and get $10 off $40 worth of purchases or $5 off below $40 purchases plus free shipping depending on weight...

              so anyway, maybe it is the products content? no harm trying some organics stuff.. I am a convert now heehee 😉

                Blessed Homemaker:
                I have eczema and when it flares up, it is coupled with urticaria (hives). My eczema is not localised but all over the body, very similar to chicken pox.


                My dermatologist prescribed steriod cream and Aqueous moisturiser ($3/tube 100ml) but only works if it's a mild eczema. They don't seem to help if there is a flare-up.

                My gf introduced me to Physiogel AI cream. It is effective but very expensive @ $37 for a 50ml tube. My son has eczema on his hands and feet too and I'm also using the AI cream on him.

                Does anyone here has a good recommendation of moisturising cream that works for eczema but doesn't cost a bomb?
                Hi

                Eczema is a very common skin problem in many people, young and old. Most of us suffer from this skin condition to varying degrees. For me and my DD1, we will get some form of eczema from time to time especially when the weather is hot.

                However, my MIL has a fantastic remedy to cure eczema. It is actually a herb coming from a plant she grows in her garden! I don't know the botanical name of the plant but it has saved many many many people from their agonies and sufferings over eczema.

                My mil first came to know about the full benefits of this plant when she was watering the plant (which grows to the height of a man) in her garden and a taxi driver happened to pass by. He told my mil that the plant is a herb that cures skin diseases and is very previous cuz it is hardly found in Singapore. That set my mil thinking as her 3 year old granddaughter had been battling against chronic eczema since birth and all western medicine from skin specialists/KK hospitals and TCM remedies and acupuncture did not help at all. She decided to use the herb on her granddaughter. She collected the leaves of the plant and dried them under the sun for a few days or so. Then she boiled a handful of the dried leaves in water for 15 mins before bathing the toddler in it. The first bath already showed significant improvement. The red angry patches toned down in colour and became drier and less blotchy. the itch was also reduced much to my mil and sil's delight. My mil n sil continued bathing the kid everyday for a week. Lo and behold, my little niece looked like a changed person! Her rashes and eczema were totally gone and her skin looks as good as new. What a great blessing! I decided to try the herbs for myself when my skin started to itch and indeed, it worked wondrously. My skin was back to normal in a day or two. No more expensive consultations and useless steroid creams etc..to pay for!

                So far, many people that we know have high praises for the herb, even for diabetic patients who have bad skin conditions due to their diabetes. My DC's classmates also benefitted from the use of this wonderful herb. They too have been battling eczema all their lives and often come to school with their arms and legs looking red and sometimes bloody due to over scratching.

                I'm glad my mil grows this wondrous herb in her garden and it is indispensable whenever everyone in the household has some form of skin irritations. I guess this herb is a God send and worth than any weight of gold.

                  Sounds like a great remedy ! Can you post a picture of this herb?

                      Thanks for sharing. But it's hard to tell what plant it is just from the pics. Do you have the name of the herb? Need not be the botanical name. What do your family members or the taxi driver call it?

                        Sat Straits Times have this column on gardening and I think there is contact email for some botanist. Maybe can send pic to them to id the plant.
