What fruit is good for eczema?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Fruits with flavonoids such as Apples, Broccoli, Cherries, Blueberries, Spinach, Kale can be taken as they help in fighting inflammation. But many triggers might bring on eczema-related symptoms including what we eat and each person has different allergens. There's no one diet plan that suits all. It is better to have diet rich in fruits, vegetables and healthy fats according to your allergies.

I've noticed a patch of dry skin on my right under thigh, but it's not itchy or causing any discomfort. Could you recommend an ointment for this?

Since there's no itch or discomfort, you can try the following over-the-counter (OTC) ointments: 1. *Moisturizing creams*: Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream, Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream, or CeraVe Moisturizing Cream. 2. *Hydrocortisone cream*: A mild steroid cream like hydrocortisone (0.5-1%) can help reduce inflammation and dryness. 3. *Urea-based creams*: Urea (10-20%) creams, such as Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream or Aquaphor Healing Ointment, can help lock in moisture. 4. *Vaseline*: Petroleum jelly (Vaseline) can provide a protective barrier and help retain moisture. Apply the ointment 2-3 times a day, or as needed. If the patch persists or worsens, consult a doctor or dermatologist for further guidance.

My husband has been dealing with some really itchy, red bumps on his inner thighs for about 34 weeks now. He's tried using OTC creams like Monosol GM, but they just keep coming back and are starting to spread to nearby areas. It's super itchy and the red rashes are not going away. Im not sure what to do next, do you have any suggestions?
