New exzema sufferer

[Mattbrfc]

Hi everyone, and a happy new year to you all.

I have recently started getting exzema in the last 2 years, I get it on my monkey bone, arms, neck, more recently on my eyelids but mainly on my right shin, which is very very itchy and sore. I can get out the shower and it feels slimy at sore then dry out and gets itchy again, I've tried numerous creams nothing works, euvomate calms it down but never goes, a few days after stopping it starts again. I'm wondering would you say its infected or just a bad case. And has anyone had something that works great.

Thank you everyone.

Thank you very much, will check that out.

I struggle to get an appointment with my doctor due to work and my GPs working hours.

Thank you again.
