Getting desperate so positing here for traffic - sorry!!
20yo DD has had worsening eczema under one eye for about 6 months. What started off as a slight bit of dryness in the crease underneath her eye is now a massive angry, red and scaly patch. She looks like she’s been punched in the eye to be frank.. Getting increasingly self conscious as she can’t cover it with makeup.
Have tried various different emollients recommended by the GP and nurse friends who work in dermatology (Epaderm, Aveeno, Avéne Cicalfate, Eucerin AtoControl to name a few) but nothing helps. The only thing that works is hydrocortisone cream however this isn’t recommended for under eye use due to various risks. She only uses it when she absolutely has to
Private dermatologist can’t see her for another 6 weeks hence I’m reaching out to MN! Any ideas or experience of this?
