I developed an addiction to steroid cream to treat eczema its wrecked my face & my skin feels like its on – The Sun

Posted: January 31, 2021 at 6:57 am

A WOMAN says she can't even look at herself in the mirror after steroid withdrawal caused eczema to erupt over her entire body.

English teacher, Elin Wade, 30, from Swansea, has suffered with eczema ever since she was little, mainly in the folds of her arms, which only lasted a few days and was easily manageable with Sudocrem.

However, as she began teaching at 25-years-old, she started to experience stress, which triggered a flare up.

She started using topical steroid creams, which cleared up her eczema immediately and she was amazed at how fast it worked.

However, after two years, her eczema started to spread to other parts of her body.

She tried every diet and natural remedy, but nothing worked, so she decided to research her symptoms and found out about topical steroid addiction (TSA).

In February 2019, she stopped using her steroid creams but shortly after, she developed hot skin rashes, which made her body feel like it was on fire and lost three stone, dropping to just 6st 5lb.

Her hair also started to come out.

She resulted in taking a new drug, which she had to inject into her stomach - but she stopped taking this due to her condition worsening.

I started panicking that my skin was going to erupt on my wedding day, as I'd completely lost control over my body and was obsessing over what made it worse, she recalled. I was barely eating anything because I was so scared something would trigger it - I just couldn't figure it out.

After the wedding, it erupted into the biggest flare I'd ever had and I was prescribed a higher potency cream - but it just got worse and worse.

I tried everything - every diet, natural remedy, but nothing worked and I was completely stumped.

Your whole body feels like it's on fire and when it oozes, it's metallic and super uncomfortable.

During some obsessive research, I read the symptoms of topical steroid addiction and withdrawal and I remember feeling elated because finally, here it was. Although, I never imagined how horrific the journey would be.

I started the withdrawal immediately upon discovering this and my body went into complete meltdown and I had every single symptom that every sufferer reports - the skin rash that spreads everywhere, thats red, hot, oozy and flaky, which cycles so quickly you can't keep up.

Your whole body feels like it's on fire and when it oozes, it's metallic and super uncomfortable.

You can't regulate your temperature and I used to shake violently bundled up in huge duvets and at the very beginning, I couldn't even get out of bed.

I lost weight immediately and at one point, I was six-and-a-half stone, even though I was eating loads - but I think my body just used all the calories to heal.

4

Some of my hair fell out and I had crippling insomnia, where one night, I didn't sleep a wink and I just got up and taught a whole day with no sleep at all. I still struggle with insomnia now - although I manage to sleep for two hours at a time at least.

I had swollen lymph nodes everywhere, which led me to be tested for HIV, lymphoma and leukaemia and I even had to have an ultrasound on my lymph nodes because the doctors were concerned - but I knew it was just another symptom of topical steroid withdrawal.

Elin reached such a low, that everyone was concerned about her, so she decided to see a private dermatologist, who prescribed her immunosuppressants, which helped a bit, and as she needed a blood test every two weeks to check her liver whilst on them - she knew something wasnt right.

Quitting the creams in 2020, she now feels she is now still sick.

4

My skin is just dry all the time, as it doesn't hold any moisture and appears so flaky, she said. Each time I moisturise, it just goes red and I feel like Im fighting a losing battle.

Aside from the physical symptoms, the mental ones are equally as bad and I've suffered with bouts of depression because of this; it ruins your whole life.

I feel completely defined by this condition and I don't feel like me anymore. I'm so passionate about my job, but I don't feel like I've been able to do it properly for so long.

I can't look at myself in the mirror, because I don't recognise myself and I'm worried I'll have PTSD after this whole experience.

I know I'll get better, but I've lost two years of my life to something which was entirely preventable and not my fault.

Chrissy Teigen Is Loving This Scalp and Body Scrub for Healthy Hair and Smooth Skin – Prevention.com

Posted: at 6:57 am

Chrissy Teigen may be the most generous celebrity when it comes to dropping that routine. Shes already shared the steps that keep her complexion glowing, and she just revealed another favorite, multi-tasking self-care product: Ouais Scalp & Body Scrub.

On her Instagram Story, the 35-year-old star said shes been loving the scrub lately to exfoliate her body, literally from head to toe. She admitted that it feels sticky upon application, but that texture washes away with a quick rinse, revealing smooth, soft, hydrated skin. In the post, she tagged her good friend Jen Atkin, whos founder of the brand.

Scalp & Body Scrub

$38.00

You may be thinkinghow does it work on the scalp and body? Well, its physical exfoliants are sugar crystals that can gently break down product build-up on the scalp and smooth dry patches everywhere else. The scrub also contains probiotics to balance the skin and scalps natural bacteria levels, as well as coconut oil and fatty acids to restore moisture. Shampoo doesnt always cut the oil and dead skin that collects up there, so a scrub like this offers a good base clean that you can follow with your regular hair washing routine and proudly say, Dandruff who?

The scrub also foams once you really work it in. That combined with its Melrose Place fragrance (hints of bergamot, lychee, cedar-wood, and white musk) will make your shower feel like a full-on spa visit. Its also great for all hair types.

Hundreds of reviewers say its totally worth trying, too. My skin was glowing after using this scrub and felt amazingly soft! one person wrote. It was never too rough, it didnt irritate my skin at all. Another praised its itchy scalp mending powers: No dry skin or left over product and its helped me go longer without having to wash my hair!

Others claimed it helped with psoriasis and eczema (although you should always check in with a derm if you have a sensitive skin condition).This has become a part of my daily routine. I have eczema on my elbows and scalp and this helps those spots shrink and make their way out, one wrote. My skin has never felt better.

And apparently, neither has Chrissy Teigens!

S’pore weather blowing hot and cold: Beware of asthma, eczema flaring up, say doctors – The Straits Times

Posted: January 29, 2021 at 12:08 pm

SINGAPORE - This year has been off to a rainy and windy start with temperatures as low as 21.1 deg C but drier and warmer weather is expected in the coming weeks, says the weatherman, with temperatures possibly hitting 34 deg C.

What does the changing weather mean for our health?

Dr Samuel Low, a clinical director at private healthcare provider Parkway Pantai, said the change in humidity can weaken a person's immune system, making one more susceptible to germs and viruses, and more likely to fall sick.

One condition that is more likely to occur with the transition from cold to hot weather is heatstroke, said Dr Goh Lit Ching, a resident physician at private medical centre Icon Health Screening.

It is caused by the body overheating, usually as a result of prolonged exposure to or prolonged physical exertion in high temperatures with a lack of hydration.

The symptoms of heatstroke include high body temperature, confusion, nausea and vomiting, flushed skin, headache, rapid and shallow breathing and a racing heart rate. In serious cases, a heatstroke can lead to seizures and coma.

To avoid a heatstroke, individuals should apply sunblock, drink plenty of fluids, and wear loose-fitting clothing in hot weather.

Said Dr Goh: "People should also take extra precautions if they are on medication that can affect their body's ability to stay hydrated and respond to heat."

Another condition that may flare up in hot weather is atopic dermatitis, or eczema, which makes the skin red and itchy, said Dr Leong Choon Kit, a family physician at Mission Medical Clinic.

He said: "Some people may be very sensitive to changes in the environment, whether it is the temperature, humidity or dust level. This can cause allergies and inflammation on the skin or compromise the immune system."

The symptoms of eczema include skin itchiness, dry skin, cracked and scaly skin. Sweating under hot and humid weather can also trigger skin irritation in a person who has eczema, said Dr Goh.

Dr Goh advised sufferers of the condition to moisturise their skin to prevent it from becoming dry. Sufferers should also avoid wearing rough, tight or scratchy clothing as this may irritate the skin.

Asthma, a condition in which the airways narrow and swell and produce extra mucus, may also worsen in humid weather, noted Dr Goh. It can flare up due to triggers such as exercise or may be allergy-induced.

In extreme heat, the presence of aeroallergen such as pollen and pet dander is higher and may trigger an allergic reaction. This can aggravate the respiratory system and cause frequent asthma attacks, explained Dr Goh.

The symptoms of asthma include coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

He said influenza and pneumonia vaccination can help prevent asthma flare-ups caused by these respiratory illnesses.

Dr Leong advised individuals to observe personal hygiene and wear masks at all times when outdoors to avoid infections. People can also self-medicate by taking antihistamines, an allergy medication, in the event of allergies, he said.

Said Dr Goh: "Although a change in the weather is not a direct cause of medical diseases, it can serve as an indirect precipitating factor in many chronic illnesses.

"The overall health effects of a changing climate are overwhelmingly negative."

Dr Goh Lit Ching, a resident physician at private medical centre Icon Health Screening, shares five tips on how to stay healthy when the weather blows hot and cold.

1. Keep your home cool

Switch on the fan to cool your home.

2. Keep out of the heat

Avoid going out and doing strenuous physical activity during the hottest time of the day.

If you must do strenuous activity, do it during the coolest part of the day, in the morning or evening. Rest often in shady areas so that your body has a chance to recover.

3. Keep yourself hydrated

Wear light and loose-fitting clothes and keep your body cool by drinking more fluids, regardless of how active you are.

Do not wait until you are thirsty to drink.

You should avoid alcohol and too much caffeine and sugar as they can cause you to lose more body fluid. Consuming a sports drink can replace the salt and minerals you lose in perspiration.

4. Pace yourself

If you are not used to working or exercising in a hot environment, start slowly and pick up the pace gradually.

Get into the shade or a cool area to rest, especially if you feel light-headed, confused, weak or faint.

5. Wear sunscreen

Sunburn affects your body's ability to cool down and can make you dehydrated.

Protect yourself from the sun by wearing a hat, sunglasses or putting on sunscreen of at least SPF15 about 30 minutes before going out. Reapply the sunscreen according to the directions on the packaging.

Children’s eczema winter flare ups affecting one in five Irish kids- here’s how to prevent them – Belfast Live

Posted: at 12:08 pm

A new study by an Irish skincare company has revealed the stresses experienced by parents of children suffering from eczema during the winter months.

One in five children in Ireland suffer from this dry, itchy skin condition, which becomes worse over the winter due to a combination of central heating and cold weather.

Parents who responded to the Eczema Winter Skincare Survey by Elave Skincare from Gardiner Family Apothecary shared their anxiety, advice and tips on how to cope

Talk to your pharmacist or doctor for advice, but please do not think that its your fault, it is not! said one mum. Another advised: Dont be ashamed of it and encourage your child not to worry.

You are doing all you can for your child, just follow the medical advice and get help and support for yourself when you need it, said one mum, while another advised: Dont let it get you down and look after mental health as much as skincare.

Stress is a major factor in flare-ups, one commented, so be prepared as much as possible for times of stress by taking extra care of the skin and the emotional health of the person. Take it seriously and be patient! said another.

Parents said their stress levels were highest when eczema interfered with their childs sleep, followed by the challenges flare-ups imposed on their childs emotional development and social life. Well over half of parents (66%) said that soap and fragrances were the most frequent triggers of flare-ups and caused the most serious reactions, with nearly 9 out of 10 stating they used sulfate-free soap and apothecary solutions.

Respondents confirmed that other frequent triggers, particularly over the winter months when sufferers move from warm houses to the cold outdoors, are scratchy wool and synthetic fabrics, tight clothing and dust.

However, four out of 10 parents were unaware that cold air and polyester clothes can trigger reactions and 8 out of 10 were unaware of, or did not use, humidifiers, wet compresses and clinifast garments to counteract symptoms.

Many emphasised the importance of constant moisturising and using a Food Diary to identify triggers like nuts, eggs and dairy, which can be removed from the childs diet and lead to potentially significant improvement.

The Irish Skin Foundation confirms that in winter time central heating and very dry air indoors can intensify skin dryness, which can in turn be aggravated by exposure to a range of environmental allergens.

Common irritants include soap, bubble bath, shampoo, laundry detergents, fragrances, clothing that feels itchy next to the skin, changes in temperature, or allergens like animal dander, the house dust mite or pollen, it says.

"Emotional stress can aggravate eczema and finding ways to reduce stress may lessen the frequency and, hopefully, the intensity of the flare-ups. While stress is associated with flares of atopic eczema, it is not yet fully understood.

Skincare expert Joanna Gardiner, CEO of Gardiner Family Apothecary, makers of the Elave and Ovelle skincare ranges, said that cases of eczema had doubled in Irish children over the last 20 years, due mainly to environmental pollution.

Central heating, which is the norm in modern Irish homes, keeps us warm in winter but it also dehydrates the skin and triggers outbreaks of itchiness and rashes, she explained. Then, when you go out into the cold and wind, you have the perfect storm of adverse conditions. Other irritants like polyester, wool, tight clothing and diet also play a role in triggering flare-ups, while soap and fragrances are huge irritants and should be avoided at all times by using free-from body washes, shampoos and creams.

Our pure formulations never, ever use nasty irritants like soap, scent, sulfates, parabens, MIs, dyes and formaldehyde. Using them from top to toe, along with constant moisturising, as part of a daily skincare regimen will help keep attacks to a minimum.

Baking soda: How to avoid the itchy and sore signs of eczema with a baking soda treatment – Express

Posted: at 12:08 pm

Baking soda has been hailed as one of the world's best-kept secrets for household cleaning. But while it's usually used for baking cakes, your baking soda also has a number of health benefits, including protecting against eczema signs and symptoms, it's been claimed.

Baking soda - or bicarbonate of soda in the UK - is a cheap alternative to expensive cleaning products.

It's great for getting rid of stains and bad smells, but it's also been claimed to benefit your health.

Some people have reported having whiter teeth after regularly using baking soda, while others say it enhances their athletic performance.

But your bicarbonate of soda could also relieve your itchy skin, it's been revealed.

"Baking soda is actually a natural antiseptic with antibacterial properties," she told Express Health. "Adding a little baking soda to your bath water can arguably help to address scaly skin and soothe itchy skin.

"In fact, some experts believe it can effectively treat ichthyosis, a skin disorder characterised by dry, scaly skin.

"It raises the pH level of water and helps to exfoliate the dry skin.

"It's important to remember that baking soda is not a cure for eczema, but it may help relieve the itch associated with it."

Shaw admitted that there are more effective products on the market to treat your eczema or itchy skin.

But, baking soda could also act as an exfoliant for your skin, she added.

It can remove the build-up of dirt and grime on your skin, as well as remove the dead outer layer of skin.

All in all, it'll live your skin looking "fresher and brighter", she said.

Eczema is a very common condition, and it's usually first spotted in young children.

If you develop eczema, it's most likely to be a long-term condition, although it may get better over time.

Eczema causes the skin to become dry, itchy and cracked, according to the NHS.

You should speak to a pharmacist for advice about your eczema. They can help you to find the best over-the-counter medication.

Coronavirus and your skin: tips for taking care of your hands – WCNC.com

Posted: at 12:08 pm

Here's what you should do immediately after using sanitizer on your hands.

Washing your hands is an essential way to slow the spread of the coronavirus and other pathogens; however, frequent handwashing can cause dry skin that could flake, itch, crack and even bleed without proper precautions.

The soap and water can zap your skin of its natural oils, leaving your hands dry and chapped. On top of that, open wounds and cracking can make skin an easy access point into the body for germs and bacteria.

Even more, winter is in full swing, bringing with it cold, dry weather that is hard on skin.

AccuWeather interviewed Dr. Carrie Kovarik, an American Academy of Dermatology Associationboard-certified dermatologist, to learn how to combat dry hands amid coronavirus and harsh winter weather.

"Some contributing factors to dry hands include cold/dry weather, frequent handwashing, alcohol-based hand sanitizers, skin conditions such as eczema, and coming in contact with irritants such as cleaning chemicals or bleach," Kovarik, a professor of dermatology and medicine, told AccuWeather.

With these tips from dermatologists, you can continue to wash your hands as needed to fend off COVID-19 and heal dry skin. Here's what the American Academy of Dermatology Association recommends:

Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds in lukewarm water

"The alcohol in hand sanitizers can leave hands dry, but so can frequent washing if you do not use a gentle soap or moisturize after washing. We recommend washing your hands for at least 20 seconds in lukewarm water," Kovarik said.

However, using the wrong soap and constant scrubbing when washing can irritate the skin barrier, leading to the loss of its natural oils. Many soaps contain ingredients that can trigger dermatitis, eczema or allergies, so it's best to use a fragrance-free soap.

If your hands are already dry, do not wash them less since cracked skin makes it easier for germs to get inside your body. Washing frequently helps prevent illness by removing harmful bacteria and viruses, such as the coronavirus.

"Use soap, and wash every part of your hands, including between your fingers and around your nails. Dry your hands with a clean towel, but leave some water on them," Kovarik said.

Dry your hands with a clean towel; however, leave them a little damp

You can let your hands air dry, but make sure to apply your hand cream or ointment before your hands are completely dry.

"While your hands are slightly damp, apply your hand cream or ointment. Apply hand cream or ointment to your skin, making sure you work some of the moisturizers into your fingertips and nails," Kovarik said.

According to Kovarik, using the correct moisturizer tends to feel less irritating to dry, chapped skin.

Keep your skin hydrated by applying thick hand cream or ointment to your skin, and make sure to moisturize your fingertips and nails

When looking for the right moisturizer, it's important to be mindful of product's ingredients and choose thicker moisturizers over thinner ones.Keep in mind, some products have anti-aging ingredients and fragrances that can irritate children's skin.

It's important to avoid products with fragrance, parabens, preservatives, alcohol and formaldehyde to avoid skin irritation and other health hazards. If your child has dry skin, ointments like petroleum jelly and thick white creams are quite effective at sealing in moisture.

When you use hand sanitizer, apply your hand cream or ointment immediately after the hand sanitizer dries

Since the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends using a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol to kill germs, hand sanitizer can be very drying, especially on top of the effects of winter weather.

"Only use hand sanitizer when absolutely necessary," Kovarik said. "When you use hand sanitizer, apply your hand cream or ointment immediately after the hand sanitizer dries," Kovarik said.

If in need of rescue therapy, apply a thick moisturizer or Vaseline onto your hands and cover to leave overnight and heal while you sleep.

"If your hands get really dry and fissured, you can buy a pair of white cotton gloves, generously apply petrolatum on the hands at night, and wear the gloves. In the morning, your hands will feel better," Kovarik said.

What’s the Best Way to Heal Dry Skin? – Sarasota

Posted: at 12:08 pm

Between the increased amount of hand washing and the use of alcohol-based sanitizersbecause of the Covid-19 pandemic and Florida's constantly changing winter temperatures, this season has wreaked havoc on many peoplewho deal with dry, cracked and flaky skin. Are there any ingredients we should be looking for in our skin products to help heal? Dr. Cathy MilamofMilam Bogart Dermatology has a few recommendations for those dealing dry skin conditions during this time of year.

"As soon as the humidity drops, patients will notice a huge difference in how dry and flaky skin becomes," says Milam. "Usually, from the time of Thanksgiving until February is when patients notice a significant change in skin texture."

Milam says the best products, such a lotions and serums, are those free of fragrances and alcohol, and are safe for everyday use. She suggests brands that have been dermatologist-tested, like Neutrogena, CeraVe, Aveeno and Eucerin.

If you still have dry skin even though you make a point to moisturize, you may not be using enough of the product, or not using it effectively. Milam suggests moisturizing liberally, and doing so right after you get out of the shower, while your skin is still damp, to trap moisture, and showering less frequently, to avoid skin dryness. When moisturizingyour face, use a thicker product at night and a thin one for daytime use.

And to get rid of those pesky dry flakes on the forehead and nose? Use an exfoliating brush or sponge as opposed to a product containing scrubbing beads or pieces.

"Exfoliant products with little beads or pieces of walnut or apricot can be really harsh on skin, stripping away skin's natural layers," says Milam. "If you are going to exfoliate with a product, look for one that is gentle, without scrubbing pieces in them, and use a brush or washcloth to manually exfoliate."

What about if you have skin conditions that create dry skin, like eczema and dermatitis? Avoiding ingredients like glycolic acid (used to treat acne) is helpful, especially when your skin is already inflamed. A combination of over-the-counter and prescription products can be useful during this time of year, from lotions like Eucerin for eczema and topical steroid creams with1 percent hydrocortisone. Natural ingredients like oatmeal are also really soothing for irritated skin.

"If you suffer from eczema, psoriasis or dermatitis on the hand and feet, try lathering up with cream and putting socks or gloves on overnight," says Milam. "The worst thing to do with these conditions is take long, hot showers. They should be quick and tepid, and skin should be dabbed dry."

While there are many home remedies that people tout during the winter months, like rubbing coconut oil, avocado oil or vitamin E on the skin, Milam says sticking to dermatologist-tested and -approved productsis best.

"Ultimately, I tell patients to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize," says Milam. "That is why you need a large amount of lotion, especially with all the hand washing we are doing right now, and with one that's cost effective, so you can apply liberally."

Jessica Simpson Just Dropped This Major Bombshell About Her Health StatusWere So Sad For Her! – SheFinds

Posted: at 12:08 pm

Jessica Simpson is probably not the first name you think of when you hear about insecurities, but that does not mean the actress is totally confident all of the time. Recently, Simpson admitted that she experienced a serious dip in self-confidence after the birth of her daughter, Birdie, in March 2019.

During an interview with Shape, the 40-year-old told the outlet that her eczema flare-ups following Birdies birth were so bad that she was unwilling to show friends photos of her and her newborn. Simpson explained that though she has been dealing with the skin condition since childhood, it got significantly worse in 2019.

Add this to your diet to help with your skin, bones, and joints

Speaking toInStyle this past summer, Simpson explained whyshe had rarely spoken up about eczema before, recalling one story from her teenage years that stuck with her.

She told the magazine, "I'm always open about my insecurities, and I feel like I'm pretty transparent. I do believe that there is a way that we can find confidence in ourselves. I've had eczema since I was a kid. It's not really anything that I've ever talked about, and I don't really know why to be honest. I think because I had it a lot when I was in junior high and high school."

"Some of my memories of it when I was younger was being a cheerleader and then having to throw a sweatshirt on really quick after doing a routine or practice, even though it was so hot in Texas," she explained. "They hug in Texas, so everybody would always come up and hug me and be like, 'What's on your arms?' I would just blame it on a heat rash."

Splash/Shutterstock

She touched on this during her talk with Shape as well."I've dealt with eczema since I was a kid," she said. "But after having my daughter Birdie, I had such bad flare-ups that I wouldn't even show the pictures of me holding her to my friends."

Since then, Simpson has become a spokesperson for Eucrisa, a topical prescription for eczema relief.

Instagram.com/jessicasimpson

But there are other skincare treatments the star swears by to keep her looking her best and feeling her most confident.

The "With You" singer added, "During this pandemic, Ive gone down a skin-care rabbit hole, and Ive been using a red-light therapy mask too."

"I'm obsessed with doing red-light therapy treatments at home," she continued. "I place the anti-inflammatory device everywhere on my body, including my scalp, stomach, and boobs."

And this dedication to skincare has yielded great results for Simpson--even giving her a boost of anti-aging benefits.

She explained, "I have fewer wrinkles at 40 than I did at 38!"

Spring Allergy Symptoms – 10 Signs of Seasonal Allergies in Spring – Prevention.com

Posted: at 12:08 pm

Talk to your doctor about the best strategy for treating your specific symptoms. Options include oral antihistamines such as Zyrtec to relieve sneezing and itching, eye drops like Zaditor to relieve redness and itching, nasal steroid sprays such as Flonase to reduce inflammation and congestion, and hydrocortisone creams such as Cortizone-10 for eczema.

People with known allergies should be proactive and start taking their medications before the symptoms hit. That means if trees start pollinating in your area the second week of March, start taking your meds at the end of February, per your allergists recommendations. (Check out pollen counts in your area here.)

Focus on your main symptoms (you may just need eye drops rather than an oral antihistamine, for example), and do your best to keep allergens out of your home by closing windows and changing out of pollen-laden clothing as soon as you walk in the door.

For long-term relief, immunotherapyotherwise known as allergy shotsis the gold-standard. It makes you less allergic over time rather than just suppressing your symptoms that season, says Dr. Parikh.

It does take commitment, though. You will likely have to go to the doctors office once a week for six months, and then once a month for three to five years. Its like going to the gymfrequency and consistency will train your system to be less allergic, Dr. Parikh says.

For those who cant stand the thought of needles, the Food and Drug Administration has approved four types of sublingual immunotherapy, which involves a tablet that dissolves under your tongue, but each only works for a specific allergen, including ragweed, dust mites, and specific northern grasses. Shots are still the best option, Dr. Parikh explains, because you can treat multiple allergies at once.
