The home treatments available for eczema are simple and effective. The most important treatment is removal and avoidance of the known cause. This may include a change from woolly to cotton clothing or a change of soaps and detergents. Using greasy emollients in the bath water or in form of creams help relieve the dry skin. It is best to avoid scratching especially in infants and children.
