Eczema, Itching For A Solution

Eczema, Itching For A Solution

Eczema is a condition that makes your skin red and itchy. It's common in children but can occur at any age. Eczema is long lasting, tends to flare periodically and may be accompanied by asthma or hay fever. Eczema typically first appears in very young children with research finding that 65 percent of cases occur before infants hit their first birthday, and 90 percent of those affected have their first cases before they turn 5 years old. Of further concern is that eczema in children is becoming more and more common.

Understanding Why

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.

Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp. With all forms of eczema on the scalp, it can be difficult for hair to grow where inflammation is present. In addition, picking and scratching the affected areas can lead to further inflammation and hair breakage. Frequent scratching can also cause bleeding and damage your hair follicles.

When you have eczema, it means your immune system is working too hard. Your immune system usually is good, because it tries to protect you from bad stuff like infections and diseases. For whatever reason, when you have eczema, your immune system is off balance  causing your skin to overreact to something and get itchy with developing rashes. Weird, huh?

Eczema Prevention

The following tips may help prevent bouts of dermatitis (flares) and minimize the drying effects.

Moisturize your skin at least twice a day. 

OrganiGrowHairCo Offers a variety of products for your hair and skin that help prevent the development of eczema.

While there is no cure for eczema, there are a variety of non-invasive product options at OrganiGrowHairCo that can provide relief during a flare-up and some that may prevent its onset.

Scalp beverage

  • Avocado oil nourishes the strands with vitamins A, B, D & E 
  • The use of Vitamin A, topically is commonplace for treating skin conditions such as acne and eczema. Vitamin A helps the skin suppress cellular growth that can be associated with inflammation and flare-ups.
  • The vitamin E in the scalp beverage can help to speed healing by reducing inflammation.
  • Jojoba oil is closely related to our scalp’s natural oil production of sebum which may get washed away during shampooing. Jojoba oil also treats dry scalp.

    Growtein Deep / Free Deep Condish

  • The Lavender in the Growtein Condish is an eczema treatment proven to help reduce these common symptoms that can help heal dry skin. Gently rub into the skin. The aroma can help facilitate sleep, when itching is often at its worst.

    Body Butter

     

  • Since eczema dehydrates the skin, a great moisturizer is the best method to help heal eczema. Shea butter is an excellent natural moisturizer to help combat eczema because of its high oil content and fatty acids that deeply penetrate the skin and cause skin cell regeneration.

  • Aloe Vera Oil contains the health properties of the original aloe vera plant, it possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal, antioxidant, and astringent activity. Aloe Vera oil can assist in keeping your skin supple and firm.
