Perspectives of a Newly Diagnosed Adult: 51 Years Old
Last year I kept having my right hand itching, cracking, and pain. What the heck! I used everything and I mean everything! This year I went to the dermatologist and she diagnosed me with eczema.
Unexpected healing
I went to a child’s birthday party and swam in a salt water pool and by the next day my hand was HEALED! Praise the Lord. However that didn’t last very long but now the light bulb went on.
So now I grind up sea salt and mix it with lotion and pour it on the effective areas. I wrap my hand and by the end of the day my hand feels better and at night I use my prescription. Sea salt is the answer for me.
