Eczema is usually treated by using steroid creams and other forms of steroid medication. They are prescribed by doctors on the initial onset of Eczema. Steroids are effective in suppressing symptoms in an instant. However, they can’t heal Eczema and are only capable of bringing immediate relief. Eczema can only be healed permanently by addressing its source.
Natural eczema creams don’t contain harmful ingredients and are just as effective as steroids. There are many herbal creams available, but there’s no guarantee that they are actually 100% natural. Most of these are commercially made, and may contain traces of harmful chemicals and additives. Mass-produced herbal creams need preservatives to prolong their shelf life.
To be sure that you are using a 100% natural product, you can try making your own herbal remedy. Several herbs are proven to work wonders for Eczema. They don’t come in bottles and won’t look as good as store-bought remedies, but they are safer for your skin.
Chamomile is a beneficial remedy for reddened skin. To create your own chamomile herbal compress, boil 2 teaspoonfuls of dehydrated chamomile flower in a cup of water. Allow to cool, then put on affected areas with a gentle cloth. Camphor oil and sandalwood also work better than steroid eczema creams in curing Eczema. Blend 1 tablespoon each of sandalwood powder and camphor oil to create a thick paste. You could also add rose water if you want.
Turmeric paste can be used as an anti-inflammatory Eczema cream. Combine turmeric root powder with water and blend well. Put on affected areas, allow to dry for a couple of minutes, and rinse off with water. Nutmeg works as well as turmeric. Follow the process above, but use finely ground nutmeg instead of turmeric. Evening primrose oil has gamma linolenin acid to fight itch. Vitamin E oil moisturizes skin, while witch hazel extract has cleansing attributes that help heal several skin diseases.
