Like 2 days after stopping steroids cold turkey my eczema got extremely bad. My eczema spread all over. I couldn't take the itch and burning. Id cry because I couldn't sleep :( my skin was so thin that in one of my scratch attacks I peeled the actual skin off my face. It hurt so much and water was coming out of it. I didn't know what to do. I saw my daughters desitin cream and saw the main ingredient was zinc oxide. So yup I put desitin on my face. My skin started to grow back the next day but id get so itchy id jus scratch it off again. It was a continuous cycle that I thought my skin would never grow back bcus I kept scratchin it off. Don't ask me how but after about a week of lookin like a ghost from havin destin on my face enough skin had grew back that I could actually stop using it.
right after I scratched my face skin off
I look like a mime lol
no more desitin after a week !
As for my arms and legs they were extremely dry and red. I also had it on my back and it hurt so much that I couldn't lay down and clothes bothered me.
Hey how does your face look now??
