I had never suffered from any skin condition, as far as I knew, so I dismissed it as not being important. I went online, compared my patches to a handful of photos, and proudly diagnosed my problem as a skin rash induced by the new body wash I had bought on sale.<\/p>\n<p>Looking back, I can\u2019t believe how stupid I was. How would a body wash make my skin flare up like that in such specific spots? Wouldn\u2019t the rash spread throughout? But I was so confident of my research that I bought an over-the-counter lotion for rashes and went on with my life.<\/p>\n<p>Within days, the patches got scalier and itchier, and it hurt like hell when I scratched. Was it time to see a doctor? Maybe. But I chose to have a chat with the girl at the local health store instead. Thanks to my poor knowledge of medical conditions, I was afraid to be scolded by my physician. So I would ask for her help, first, and then I would figure out my next steps.<\/p>\n<p>She said \u201ceczema\u201d the minute she looked at my skin. She also told me the harsher skin products I used, the worse eczema got. It was the way of my skin reacting to all the attacks, and boy was I attacking it like crazy for days now. I told her I didn\u2019t want to see a doctor yet and she led me to the FaceDoctor sea buckthorn oil soap. It would help me with the symptoms, and it would balance everything out, but I needed to make sure I would see a doctor once it got better. <\/p>\n<p>Two weeks later, the eczema treatment was working great, and I scheduled a doctor\u2019s appointment. Spoiler alert, it\u2019s eczema, not a skin rash, and apparently, it had been there all my life. It simply hadn\u2019t manifested yet. Now I have the most effective natural skin treatment on my side, so all is good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few months ago, I started having these weird scaly, dry patches on my knees and elbows.
