Pedicure Nightmare

I had a pedicure last year that night my legs were killing me. I called to see what they used on my legs it was pineapple oil and lavender lotion. That was my first flare up. To this day i still have atopic dermatitis or eczema. I use baby aveeno lotion 2x a day on my legs and 1x a day on my neck and arms for now i have it on other parts as well. I did see the dermatologist and he prescribed a steroid cream which i did not use. If it gets really bad this summer i will consider the shot Dupixent. I still will get a pedi but never lotion or alcohol is to be used. Just trim and polish.

  1. Hi ,
    I am glad to hear you were able to identify what triggered your flare. It's great you're managing it with Aveeno and have a clear plan for future pedicures.
