For real though, my husband has eczema mostly concentrated on his hands and they get real torn up in the winter especially. If it gets really bad, we’ll get him a pack of latex gloves, he slathers on Vaseline and then I help him get the gloves on, and then he sleeps that way. It’s the only thing that manages to make a significant difference. It’s not comfy but sometimes his fingers bleed so we gotta do something.
In the netherlands doctors use Cetomacrogol 1000 (with 10-30% vaseline) or a variant or Bag Balm (less usesd) for people having eczema or psoriasis. It adds disinfectant and hydration properties. Works fantastic
So could you keep your hand soft by wearing a glove full of vaseline?
I’m asking for a friend, well I say he’s a friend, he’s a dickhead.
