Yes, and doctor's are always right!! My son suffer's with eczema on his arms, and sometimes it's spread to his face... He was given hydrocortisone cream by the gp, but told not to use it on his face, as it can damage the skin. I've read things about hydrocortisone, and I know that it's pretty potent stuff... but I err on the side of natural remedies rather than conventional medicines... they very often make things worse! Maybe it would be a good idea for Worried male to do a bit of research himself? Surely that can't do any harm?
