Okay I know I have seen SOOOOOO many request for information on how to help eczema but here is another one but this is a little different. My nephew just turned 4 and has lived with me most of his life over time his eczema has grown worse (his whole body is bright red right now from him scratching all the time and his eczema is out of control.) I cannot tell you the number of products that I have bought for this kid along with my sister. He has horrible allergies, he basically can't eat anything, and he is on allergy shots once a week. My sister is a single mom and is looking for some kind of relief for him. He spent the night at my house last weekend and I felt so horrible for him because he all he did was scratch. He is even scratching in his sleep. We have tried vasaline, eucerin, just about anything over the counter along with some prescriptions. I have heard a lot about the Melaleuca and Arbonne being able to help with eczema but before I spend anymore money on products that may not work I was hoping I could get some input on these products. I am just giving a heads up I am not interested in selling the products and neither is my sister I do not mind input from sales reps but I would love to hear from people who do not have any major involvement in the companies. I did try the Melaleuca products a few years ago for my severe dry skin and yes it did work very well but that is as far as I've gone. Any help would be great and if anyone happens to have a sample of the products so we can try them out on him before we make a huge purchase I would appreciate it. Thank you so much for your help.

What can I do next?

R.~ I feel for your nephew. My son is 9 months old and has had severe eczema since he was 2 months old. His skin used to feel like sand paper everywhere. Please listen, I'm not trying to get you to sell anything. I by chance came across the Melaleuca products and said it is worth a shot. I had tried everything else. Even prescritions from the doctor. I did some research on what was recommended of the Melaleuca products to help with eczema. I bought them all and my son is 95% better. We have been using them for only 3 months now. Everyone comments on how much better his skin is. I will be happy to help you in any way that I can. I'm sorry I don't have samples. With you having tried Melaleuca before, I wish you would try it for him. It will make a difference and if not, all the products are 100% guaranteed. Please email me at ____@____.com. I will share with you the products that have changed our lives, not just my sons, but for safety reasons too!!

My daughter has it bad on her face and I had her try Miracle of the Dead Sea Facial scrub that I got at a kiosk inside the Parks Mall. Her face is clear and red free. She doesn't have it nearly as bad as what your nephew does it sounds like but you might want to try it. THe perscription stuff didn't help her and made me worry with it so close to her eyes. I bought this one small jar 2 years ago and I still have it. It has cost a total of $80 for the lotion, facial scrub adn body scrub but well worth it.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me back.

My son has had problems with eczema since he was born. He is now 2 1/2. It got so bad that we were afaid of scarring. I spent a ton of money on every product on the market, nothing We finally found relief with an alergist named Dr. Ruff. He gave us a prescription for hydroxazine. It really helps. I give it to jax before he goes to sleep and it really cuts down on his discomfort. If you would like Dr. Ruff's phone number, e-mail me. ____@____.com
