older excema havers please give me your wisdom,

is it better to shower more often for less amounts of time or less often for more amounts of time longterm?

#im thinking like #twice/three times a week vs once a week #i usually have open skin on my arms so no time is a good time but maybe it gets better? #exzema #skin condition #ask to tag ig

Hamblin discusses the research finding that kids who generally grew up in nature had early exposures to microbes and allergens, thus resulting in fewer allergies and skin issues like eczema. This entirely made me think of my earlier piece ranting and raving about how I disliked nature, because to me, nature a) smells, and b) is full of allergens.

#I think they’d be pretty together and effective for plenty of farm fuckups #trying to put together an exzema cream for someone but I think the problem goes deeper than this salve could. that said why not try etc?

I am yet again out of sync. Need to pull myself of out at some point. Eventually. Probably. The trouble with being unbalanced is you don't have a good foundation to rebalance yourself really and every second staying like this just makes the situation worse

#personal junk #i should clean my room and get rid of all the food in here and dust off my fan and book that next psych appointment and stop staying up #late then letting myself sleep in the next morning because im not tired when 2am rolls around again and i should get body wash so i can #have a proper shower and i should make breakfasts and brush my teeth and cook dinners instead of letting my parents order fast food #and i should trim my toenails and use some skin care to deal with the recurring exzema in my hands and finish that job training and process #the hours ive driven for work over the last 6 weeks for my rebate and i should clean that sauce stain on the floor of my car from eating #kfc and i should book an appointment with my bank to discuss shit and i should write that fanfic ive been plotting about

Ugh

What sucks about my family is that, despite, like, everything about it sucking, there is one thing that is not as horrible as everything else and I'm annoyed about it.

So, you know how I have eczema? That thing that makes your skin turn so shitty that it renders parts of you body unusual and occasionally falls off? The thing I got abused about and blamed for having throughout most of my life?

Welp, apparently, not only is it hereditary, I got it straight from my father, since he developed his after literally 50 years of living without it.

And because it's kind of rare - listen, allergies are one thing, but exzema, psoriasis and vitiligo are all genetic illnesses which are caused by a specific gene in the right part of the first chromosome breaking (depending on how it breaks, you get different manifestations of skin issues I just mentioned) - my father is like, the one person who has this chronic illness that I know in person. Sure, I live in a place covered by snow during 7 months of the year so people with dry hands who need moisturizer are common, but believe me, there is a difference between "just dry hands" and waking up covered in blood because you accidentally scratched your skin up to your elbow off and now your forearms are a mangled mess.

It creates this,,, space, where, because there's someone else has the same issue, it stops being something horrifying and turns into just... A thing. Just a part of life. Two people in the family just go to places with gloves on all the time, nothing to see here. Someone can say "I had to soak my hands in water for 10 minutes because the dried blood from my broken skin fused my gloves to my hands and I couldn't get them off" and it's not an unhinged sentence which leaves an entire room looking at you like this 👁️👄👁️ but just a regular way to start a morning.

It's just,,, good to have a place where you're not the odd one out. Now, if only it wasn't an abusive hellhole...

🌹Ice's Lazy Loc Wash Routine🌹

I wanna preface this with two very important things:

I do not retwist my own locs! It would take far longer if I did. I have the tools and the means, and I know how to do it. I just hate doing it 🤣. It takes patience and arm strength and I lack the will. When I have the money I just schedule a retwist. Usually about every three months (which is longer than usual)

This is the way EYE do it! This is one experience out of countless, so don't assume my way is THEE way. There are people that will probably scream at me through the screen. But alas... It is "lazy" Loc wash day for a reason. And I do still care for my hair, and it's healthy and thriving for seven years (as of this Wednesday) 👍🏾

Okay? Okay.

Washing

The misconception about locs is that they are dirty. They're no "dirtier" than any other type of hair, nor do they require dirt to lock. That's a lie, and a racist one at that.

That being said, locs will end up holding the weight of life lol. Skin, sweat, dust, pollen, smells (and for me, bc I have dermatitis, scabs); all those things will end up weighing your locs down. Some people will do an Apple Cider Vinegar and Baking Soda wash to detox their locs.

However, I use this!

Essentially it's water, apple cider vinegar, orange peel, and some essential oils in a spray bottle, so I can spray it directly on my scalp and locs and massage it in deeply. Let it sit for a bit. Because I only wash my hair every 2 weeks or so, it's fine, but I wouldn't do this if I was washing it more frequently as it could mess up my scalp pH. Again, I have painful dermatitis, so it helps me get closer to my problem spots. Does it burn? Yes. It's working 👍🏾

Then I use this soap bar, which has things like coconut oil, aloe vera, eucalyptus, tea tree, almond, lemongrass, and more in it to scrub my scalp. You're supposed to rub it into your hands and scrub it in, so naturally I put the bar directly on my scalp. Be better than me. Smells AMAZING though and leaves my scalp clearer than it has ever been.

Medicated Shampoo

I use a medicated shampoo last. While that sits, I bathe 👍🏾 Bathe well, too 👍🏾 Please make sure your characters are bathing when they wash their hair 👍🏾

Once I'm done, I gently pull my locs apart (they WILL start tangling at the root IMMEDIATELY), then I wrap my hair in a beach towel. You're supposed to use t shirts because they're softer on curls, but I don't like water dripping on me while I get dressed. I put on easy to wear clothing. Tits loose clothing. I gotta be comfortable.

Medication

So if you know me, this is something I complain about ALL THE TIME. And it's how dermatology does NOT cater to Black patients! Even my shampoo says "for 30 days, wash every night". I'm Black with locs. My shampoos last for months bc that is impossible without me sacrificing my entire night, every night. Even if I had an Afro, we're still not supposed to wash our hair every night for fear of stripping the natural oils.

So I have to DEMAND I be given a medicated liquid solution. No petroleum based products!! A solution is the easiest way to reach my scalp. Does it burn? Yes. It's working. 👍🏾

So if your character has a skin issue (dermatitis, psoriasis, exzema excema eczema) on the scalp... Solutions are the easy way to go.

Moisturizing

I promise this isn't free ads lmao, I just happen to be experimenting with this company and I like what I've seen so far. This is a real lite oil spray with rose water and essential oils, and it cools my scalp.

Aloe Vera, the goddess of healing. Also cools my scalp and addresses those burning, pink spots from my dermatitis.

Drying

Drying depends on the length and thickness of your locs, and the temperature. Mine are shoulder length, pencil thick. Today I dried at real high heat (unintentionally) and it only took about an hour. At a lesser, safer heat, about two. This hair dryer bag is LIFE fr.

Conclusion

If I don't have anywhere else to go (and I don't, bc I plan my loc wash days like this) I spray my scalp with oil one more time, put on my loc sock, and then I'm done 👍🏾

Total time today: about two hours. Normally 3 at a lower dry temp. Not bad at all.

Hi. I'm not sure if this is something you'd be willing to write but would maybe consider writing a fic with Harding Hotten and a reader who has really bad exzema? Like they often scratch until it bleeds and is just generally painful.

Food intolerances aren't always about feeling sick in the belly or having bowel issues.

Other issues that food intolerances can cause are things like :

A persistant cough / throat irritation

Brain fog

Migraines / headaches

Inability to properly absorb certain vitamins (looking at you gluten)

Sinus issues including things like stuffy or runny nose

Concentration issues

Irritability / nervousness / anxiety

Fatigue / lethargic / tired

Acid Reflux

Skin problems like exzema

Feeling depressed

Mood changes

Trouble sleeping

Aching joints (just learned this)

Hay fever symptoms

There are lot of issues one can have with food intolerances or even intolerances of other kinds. It is not always about feeling sick.

And considering some disorders are highly comorbid with other problems (here's looking at you autism), intolerances to things can often be one of those comorbidities.

If you do have food intolerances or other intolerances and you keep submitting yourself to them, then you will never feel better. And sometimes if you keep partaking in intolerances that make you unwell, it opens up the possibility for your body to add more intolerances to that list (which is not a fun time).

#autism #actually autistic #actuallyautistic #autistic #asd #it's why it can be so very important to rule out physical causes on top of looking into disorders

When I was 14 I had a pair of off white new balances and they somehow triggered me severe blistering exzema on the soles of my feet and hands so I never wore newbalances again and even though its no longer on my feet thank GOD my fingertips still get random huge itchy clusters of blisters from time to time and its literally their fault I cant think of anything else
