rash spread to my face... :(

Post a new topicby okidot on Mon Dec 15, 2008 12:57 pm

hi everyone,
i'm not sure if i'm in the right place, but basically i suffered from exema pretty badly for about 5 years on my legs and arms. I had about 30 -40cm long patch on both my inner calves and more patches on my inner thighs, and then the same sort of thing on my arms. I went through points of some nights waking up soaked in sweat with the entire healing scabs torns right off, left nursing this swelling hot and weeping wound till the morning, when i then used dress up my legs in band-aid material , and limpstep my way to school, and then a few years later, work. I used make up excuses to people telling them i had hurt my foot to explain myself having difficulty walking. Anyhow, in that time i was being given all sorts of creams, none worked. So i gave up on them, and in the past year i have literally stopped eating anything that i reckon my body may be reacting too. I have had very good success with it, i am no longer limping from scabs on my legs, and only have the odd few cuts around my joints, very minor. The one thing though that has happened is that ive started to get the rash on my face, and pretty badly too. I have had restrained from not touching it, but it had swloen right up a few times, and there is very apparant damge starting on my face from it. It comes every 3 days or so, sometimes less, sometimes longer. I get these blotches of red scaly skin, that pertrudes very slightly. When i look in good light, the pore within the scaly red pertrusion are weeping ever so slightly. Its almost like it just gets spontaniously infected. Touching it at all makes it so much worse. Its a very strange feeling i have in my body when i get it too,my head feels a bit hot, almost...almost like a hot flush in my face, like my blood pressure is intense. Its very had to explain, but i find closing my eyes and breathing calmly helps ease the tension. Hiding on my body and keeping covered was one thing, but now having to deal with it on my face , its really getting me down. Does anyone know what this is, or why its happening like it is? I have literally stopped eating all processed foods, dairy etc, Im making sure im getting properly nourished too. I am getting all my vitimans every day, and have a balanced diet, but still, my face just starts breaking out in the blotchy red pathces at very random times. I have an allergy test arranged for next week, hopefully that might help me. If anyone has had similar problems, and has any advice or anything to say about it at all please let me know. Ive dealt with my skin problems in silence for almost 8 years now, any feedback will be cherished.
Regards,
Simon.M

Try ViaViente. My two daughters have been dealing with Eczema all their life. We have used all the steroids and creams on the market and don’t feel comfortable with the harm they is doing to their bodies. We have looked for years for a natural way to control their Eczema and have found it; ViaViente. We only put it on their skin when their Eczema flare up and within a couple days of using Via its under control. It also helps with the dry skin that is associated with it. Via really works and you will be amazed just like we were. Our daughters are 4 and 5 years of age. Shoot me an email if you want more into.

hello, thank you for the response. I am slightly confused though, as the link you gave me sends me to a website that is selling an antioxidant drink. If it was the actual drink you were reccomending, i'm afraid it won't be much use to be as i am already on a high antioxidant diet. I'm confused as to what you were putting on your daughthers skin.... surely you don't mean the drink?!

The word "dermatitis" means inflammation of the skin. ViaViente is a natural whole food puree (Fruits), there is nothing wrong with using it on the skin. It help reduce inflammation that’s why it helps control Eczema, rashes and other illnesses related to inflammation. After seeing the other benefits of Via, we started putting it on our kids skin and within a couple days their Eczema cleared up. We also drink it. If you need a sample to see if it will help your rash let me know.

We use a cotton ball to put Via on the infected area, let it dry and they are good to go. My kids are 4 and 5 they love Via because they don’t have to use all the other thick steroids and creams that clog up their pores and make them hot.
