I have excema / dermatitis - depending on who you talk to. Apparently I can't use any medication, and I'm ready to scratch the near-cracking point dry skin to bits.

I've been told just excema hand cream, but not to eat oranges etc and to drink cranberry juice. (ok, perhaps the cranberry juice was for the suspected uti that I thought I had, I really can't remember - that dr appt kinda rolled all into one.)

But I was thinking, is it citrus in general I should stay away from? Coz I use lemon juice and lime juice in cooking, and I love love love tomatoes at the moment...

any ideas to make the dryness and itchyness go away, without medication? Thanks heaps!
