Used uv for about 4 months helped conrol the itchng Before you start ask about the after affects like the skin burning. I have what is controlled exzema over 80% of y body including my scalp and feet it seems like my hands are so bad that I have to home health aides in ordr to survive. My hands itchy all the, and scratching in my sleep I wake up with cuts on my hands. and bleeding. There fore cooking with sore hands impossible .My exema has also attacked my eye brows , my ears, oing back to UV Last hope
My son went twice a week for 4 months. We were able to use a weaker steroid ointment whilst he had treatment, he still required creaming but the eczema was better and itch was reduced loads as well. Unfortunately skin flared up as soon as he stopped going.
I think there might be something to it. I've noticed that by far more people on this site are from up north, Canada, UK etc.
Yes, as recommended by my dermatologist. I’ve been having UVB 1-2 a week for almost a year. My eczema has definitely improved but requires application of ointment and UVB treatment to manage my condition.
