I have eczema all over my body

2017-03-30 14:00:31
I have really dry and flaky skin. It's really embarrassing for me. I always have to keep my body covered. It's all over my legs, arms, back and sides of the bust. It's on my face too but it gets in control by moisturizer​ but rest of the body is unaffected by any moisturizer

Some photos could have helped in the diagnosis. Please stop using saop. Use once in 3 days. Dove or pears are.good mild soaps. Do not scrub the body. Use coconut oil before bath. You will require more extensive treatment than only moisturisers. Please consult me or a nearby Dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.
