Warm weather usually means a return to shorts and T-shirts and relaxing trips to the beach, but for the millions of Americans with psoriasis, summer can be a far more stressful time of the year.
The primary purpose of this blog post is to tell the world what I have learned from my personal experience about an inexpensive and very effective treatment for eczema. Because psoriasis is a very similar affliction, there's a good chance that this treatment would be effective for psoriasis as well.
Eczema, similar to psoriasis, refers to very dry and very itchy skin condition that is not contagioys and can't be passed from one person to another by contact. These like conditions do have a higher incidence in children and adults that have allergies such as hay fever or other pollen related problems or asthma.
It is no wonder that as persons who suffer with psoriasis and eczema continue to lose their jobs and health benefits that cost effective skin treatments would be on the rise to avoid the abyss of itchy skin and weird looks.
1st. treatment: apply warm olive oil to the affected areas. This will help moisturize cracked skin. It's important to make sure the skin and areas covered are not bleeding or infected. If so, it might be time to go to the doctor instead of trying any inexpensive home remedy.
2nd. treatment: try zinc from your neighborhood health food store. Zinc is not only inexpensive but it really works on eczema and psoriasis over time. I would recommend "chelated" zinc because zinc is a mineral and minerals are not easily absorbed into the bloodstream. Back in the early 1980's scientists discovered that by chemically linking minerals to amino acids, which are easily absorbable, these minerals are more useful; this process is called chelation. Good luck with these two treatment options and have a great summer!
