I was diagnosed with eczema around 10 years ago and it was weeping eczema at that time. After that it become chronic eczema like a purple, bumpy, flaky patches that goes away with prescribed cream. Now it has been two months that my hands and face become allergic to sunlight. With sunblock of spf 60 there is no relief. Even short time exposure of skin to sunlight makes my exposed facial area red and itchy which end with skin peeling. And my hands exposed part show red and itchy patches. My doctor said that it is also type of eczema and he gave me soften (anti allergic) twice a day for a month. But my condition though reduced but still the same. Is there any cure to this? I am also applying advantan cream on rashes. The skin becomes normal after almost 3 days.
