If your scalp is effected, try a tar based shampoo.Lubriderm is sold at any pharmacy or wally. -------------- A little discipline at the table and at the gym might help reduce that belly!

GuyIncognito Posts: 63 Joined: 2004/01/10	2006/12/10, 08:21 PM I get psoriasis too. Best product I used (on the body) is an ointment called Dovonex. It cleared it up really fast - I had it quite bad before I used that. I tried using all sorts of cremes beforehand but that is the only one that worked. It is not a topical steroid though you can only really get it through your doctor. I got it after being referred to a dermatologist. -------------- Homer?

TexasJulie Posts: 21 Joined: 2006/11/29	2006/12/27, 01:47 PM Pritchard... is this a treatment you would have to continue daily to prevent the recurrence of eczema? Or is it only necessary when you have an outbreak? My 3 year old daughter has it horribly, and at this point I'm willing to try anything. She does use a cream called "Aquaphor" but it is entirely too greasy and it makes me feel guilty putting it on her knowing it feels so icky. I'm off to do some uropathy research, any knowledge you could share would be great.
