3 wAYS TO SUPPORT AN ECZEMA FLARE UP NATURALLY

In recent months, I have heard more and more complaints about people experiencing dermatitis flare ups. People who have had clear and beautiful skin for years are suddenly being hit with nasty, itchy red splotches, dry patches and inflammation. One reason for this strange and sudden problem for people could be that immune systems are under attack. Most of the clients that I have spoken with have been jabbed and boosted and they noticed the outbreak after the booster shot. I am not a Doctor so I can only go by what I see and what people tell me. But whatever the reason, something is causing an outbreak in certain groups of people.

Whether you have lived with it all of your life or are a recent victim, there are natural products that can help ease the rash and control the outbreak. 

WHAT IS ECZEMA?

Atopic dermatitis (eczema) is a condition that makes your skin red and itchy. It’s common in children but can occur at any age. Atopic dermatitis is long lasting (chronic) and tends to flare periodically. It may be accompanied by asthma or hay fever. No cure has been found for atopic dermatitis. (1)

In a nutshell, it is a condition of the skin causing patches of scales and dryness, often caused by bacterial infection. 

SYMPTOMS

Atopic dermatitis (eczema) signs and symptoms vary widely from person to person and include:

  • Dry skin
  • Itching, which may be severe, especially at night
  • Red to brownish-gray patches, especially on the hands, feet, ankles, wrists, neck, upper chest, eyelids, inside the bend of the elbows and knees, and in infants, the face and scalp
  • Small, raised bumps, which may leak fluid and crust over when scratched
  • Thickened, cracked, scaly skin
  • Raw, sensitive, swollen skin from scratching

Atopic dermatitis most often begins before age 5 and may persist into adolescence and adulthood. For some people, it flares periodically and then clears up for a time, even for several years.(1)

CAUSES

Healthy skin helps retain moisture and protects you from bacteria, irritants and allergens. Eczema is related to a gene variation that affects the skin’s ability to provide this protection. This allows your skin to be affected by environmental factors, irritants and allergens.

In some children, food allergies may play a role in causing eczema.(1)

NATURAL SOLUTIONS TO SUPPORT ECZEMA

These products reduce infection, increase moisture and promote new skin and cell growth. Try this protocol for 3 months and then as needed. While this protocol comes from Advanced Oil Magic, I first heard about it from my friend several years ago, when she discovered certain essential oils completely “healed” her two children, both of whom had suffered with severe eczema since childhood. In fact, she thought essential oils were “snake oils” for years, until she tried them on her children in a last ditch effort to help them. Now she is a believer for life!

ESSENTIAL OIL RECIPE

Combine 1-2 drops each with FCO and apply to the affected area 5x daily. Apply a warm towel compress over the area after oils are applied in the evening.
