Hi I am looking for advice, I have eczema on my hands only started a couple of years ago, I’m in my 60s, have the cream from doctor which is steroids, but he said not to use too much. Any advice on a more natural cream that will help, also I get a rash on my body now if exposed to the sun it is really annoying and itchy as spoils the summer, I went to the doctor and he just said cover up which I try to do but would love to wear more summery clothes how can I stop the rash ,sun cream doesn’t make any difference.

Have you tried using a really good sun cream that you know you doesn't upset you?

Not supposed to advertise here, but I lather on sun cream from a well know French cosmetic firm, before putting my clothes on in the morning.

Before I started that I was a martyr to sun rash.
