Re: hands
Dear Cally,
I would try and make the most of general tips for managing eczema.
1. Do not use soap, shower gel, or stripping hand washes to clean your hands. Opt for emollient hand washes
2. Get into the habit of moisturising (fragrance free) with creams immediately after washing your hands
3. Consider short term use of a topical steroid ointment for short, sharp bursts when your eczema is problematic
Best wishes,
Anjali
