does anyone else have to deal with the irritating presence of eczema? I've had it for two months now and I am just miserable =\ I've got it all over my arms, so I wear long sleeves to hide it, and I did have it on my neck but its gone, but now its showing up behind my knees >_< It makes it so hard to enjoy anything, cause you're constantly scratching, its as bad as chicken pox! Only there is no cure for it, and waiting for this to go away is getting tiresome. I've used ointments that work for a couple days then stop, and anti itch creams just burn which makes it even worse.

My dad's been known to get it all over his face, usually around his nose. As you can imagine, it doesn't exactly look pretty:S .

on his face? oh geeze thats gotta be terrible! I'm just lucky it s in a spots that arent visible since I wear pants and long sleeve shirts, but when it was on my neck it was pretty bad.

My dad's eczema usually only comes in the winter and starts out as just regular dry skin. I don't think it's ever been that terribly bad but I doubt it's comfortable.

a type of skin rash just google it, but beware of some of the images, they're nasty

It's basically abnormal skin inflammation that starts out looking like dry skin, then turns red and itches like crazy.

I've read it can start on the scalp sometimes

Yeah, that's pretty common.

When I was smaller had it on the knees a bit, it was never itchy though.
