Try a lukewarm/cool oatmeal bath and Look up and see if there is a holistic health foods store in your area.
Usually their if a nutritionist at this store.
Ask her/him if their are any lotions or oils that she/he recommends.
I use Emu oil for my eczema and it works very well. But there are other options to choose from.
(Emu oil can get very expensive- Do not buy it if it is cheaper than about 8-13 dollars for a 3-6 ounce bottle as it will not be pure and will have been diluted with vitamin E)
