Oats contain anti-inflammatory properties and can help to reduce skin flare ups. Simply add a few cups of oats to a warm (not hot) bath and soak for 15-20 minutes to calm the skin.
Some of our TalkEczema visitors have used oats and other additives in their baths from salts to vinegar, and reported good results. To read some of their comments follow this link – http://www.talkeczema.com/webdocs/yourlives/bathing.php
