ehow articles gives new treatment
// January 12th, 2010 // No Comments » // About Pompholyx
coming from ehow:
Do
you or a friend frequently get clear fluid filled blisters on your
hands and feet every summer? Does the itch drive you crazy? If so you
probably have dyshidrotic eczema. Dyshidrotic eczema is very common and
tends to recur in certain individuals when the weather becomes hot and
humid. Dyshidrotic eczema lesions have been described as tapioca-like
in appearance and primarily occur on the hands and feet. When these
clear blisters rupture they cause painful erosions and fissures which
are difficult to treat. They also can also become infected. What are
the most effective ways to treat dyshidrotic eczema?
-
Step 1
Apply
gauze dressings soaked in Burow’s solution to the affected areas. This
aluminum acetate compound treats dyshidrotic eczema by soothing the
itch, drying the rash and preventing local infection. -
Step 2
Frequently apply a lubricating moisturizer to all affected areas. Reapply whenever you wash your hands.
-
Step 3
Keep your hands as dry as possible. Minimize hand washing with soap or alcohol sanitizers.
I can’t post the full article on my blog so here is the link to the ehow article i have found - click here
Ok so I found another article listing cures! Lets see here…
// January 7th, 2010 // No Comments » // About Pompholyx
A few times a week I myself scowr through the web in search of any new news that maybe a doctor or patient has found on pompholyx eczema and each week its usually the same. 20 different blogs that are all selling some kind of product and posting the exact same article that all other 19 blogs or websites are posting. Every now and again I will come across some new info and either link to here on the site or at least mention what new information I have learned.
So today while searching i came across an article a little different with a number of different new remedies for cures or treatments. I have not tried any of these but thought they were at least interesting enough to note and share with you.
Last time we heard about a reader’s friend who has just developed this type of eczema. Did anyone know how this could be treated, she wondered? But of course. First up is a home-made concoction made up of equal parts of beeswax, honey and olive oil, which should be heated gently. Add some vitamin E as a preservative, and refrigerate. Apply when needed. Another reader suggests colloidal silver, which can be sprayed on the affected area. The eczema could also be a response to a toxic system, and so it could benefit from an inner cleanse and a diet rich in raw foods. Continue Reading
H1N1 Swine Flu Vaccine News
// October 29th, 2009 // No Comments » // Sick/Cold/Flu, video
Public support for the swine flu vaccine is evaporating by the day as the rationale for the vaccine appears increasingly ludicrous to anyone paying attention. Moms, nurses, day care workers and members of the general public are increasingly realizing that Big Pharmacies rationale for swine flu vaccination just doesn’t add up and the best case may to just stock up on Immune System Boosters.
Recent polls conducted by the mainstream media indicate that more than fifty percent of moms are refusing to expose their children to the swine flu vaccine, and nurses and health practitioners across the US and UK are going vocal with their opposition to the vaccine. The question is if there not going to take the vaccine, what are they doing to help there children from catching the virus. And for that matter the influenza virus in general this season?
Legal action against the FDA’s approval of the swine flu vaccine is already underway and public protests are gaining momentum in raising awareness about the primary objections to the swine flu vaccine. Intelligent, informed people everywhere are saying NO to this vaccine! Most now are saying yes to Immune System Boosters like Immune500 or Immune Power Plus.
Popular support for the vaccine is crumbling by the day, and health authorities are now turning to exaggerated scare stories to try to drum up demand for their vaccines. Where scientific credibility is lacking, fear is being invoked in its place. (NaturalNews + Swineoutbreak)

WARNING: articles on the internet only to sale products.

As I do my own research just as i’m sure you who are reading this are doing the same about 3 in ever 4 articles i come across are selling some kind of “Cure Eczema” quick and easy product. Two things, Number ONE: not every single one of these articles are completely false. I will agree that there are a few products on the market that can NOT “cure” but that can really help some people with mild cases of “regular” eczema. But Number TWO; There are NO quick and easy cures for Pompholyx (dyshidrotic eczema). Now don’t let that get you down, because there are treatments there are ways to help you, and there are a few people out there that are really trying to do research and spread the word of what can and can’t help you with your dyshidrotic eczema. So just a little warning, do not go spend a bunch of money on these one-ff “cure-quick” products. Please do your research and read up as much as possible on dyshidrotic eczema before jumping into buying any products. Remember anyone who claims that there product will cure dyshidrotic eczema is just not TRUE at this time (2009) if it claims to HELP or TREAT dyshidrotic eczema then it will be much more believable and by all mean, go ahead and look into the product.

Weather and Dyshidrotic eczema
// October 15th, 2009 // No Comments » // questions, seasons
After reading a new website post about different kinds of Dyshidrotic eczema which have included the top paragraph below. So after reading this something caught my eye. Though the wording in this whole paragraph seemed really odd what caught my eye was the last sentence “ability become worse during balmy weather,” made me think, is this correct? I do understand that for normal people with eczema the winter may bring on some cold which in turn can maybe can cause dry skin in some, but dry skin also is really prominent in the summer and heat as well correct? And the normal person seems to sweat more in the heat and summer correct? Then why is it that some of us really only see cases of Dyshidrotic eczema in the winter months? Please use the comment space to this comment and let me know what you think about this or when you see your pompholyx show up most often.

It’s extremely important for everyone to seek a treatment plan and keep doing your own research that pertains to your own particular situation. It can be controlled I have no doubht in that, but it is up to us who have it to help teach and learn from eachother in order to keep each and everyone of us stable and not stressed. - Justin Snyder ( blog -admin.)
