Nearly at my wits end. The whole area on and around my mouth is constantly red, peeling and especially on my philtrum-it's very rough skin. Under the light, scales even show up. Below my bottom lip as well, the same thing happens but at least it isn't as noticeable.
It itches almost all day long, peels when I'm not aware so i need to keep looking at my damn mouth and use shea butter when that happens, helps with the flaking but definitely not with the inflammation.
I have some dry patches on my hands-like tinea visicolor and i have been using anti fungal cream for 2 weeks now and no help, my skin is getting dryer and itchier, only ceritizine helps with the itch. Don't know whats wrong with me. Derms just said eczema but it just doesnt make sense that it happens so suddenly.
I have tried drinking more water, drinking homemade water kefir at least two cups per day, my bowel movements have been better - once every 4 days instead of once every few weeks, eating more vegetables, yogurts even. Topically i have tried atopiclair, coconut oil, acv which stung badly, salt water which stung as well.
The redness is pretty random, even when I'm not eating, like just walking around, it can suddenly become red and itchy. I have tried eliminating gluten, diary, but that didn't help, the redness was still coming and going.
Even when it was not red, my whole mouth area is a totally different color(dark brown maybe) and is still very rough and dry to touch, flakes still appear here and there.
I have school to attend, a part time job i just started- the manager even asked if my mouth area was dry. I just smiled at him.
It even hurts to smile, the peeling just made my whole mouth feel very tight. Can't believe i had normal mouth 4 months ago. I even looked at my past photos and cried. My mum told me this would go away with time- just more bowel movements, but even she sighed and shook her head everytime she sees my mouth being red.
I have bought a ready made enema bottle and want to try liver/colon cleansing but im afraid.
Derms cant help, they just give more steroid cream and that doesnt even work, i have stopped using at least a month ago. But this condition doesnt seem to be getting better, im worried it will spread, getting depressed.
Any suggestions what i can do? FMT isn't available in my country btw..
Sorry for the long message, thanks to anyone whi read it. I guess i just need mental support actually..

This is a reply to # 2,263,970A bowel movement once every 4 days is not good enough. Look into a high carb low fat vegan diet. Dr. John Mcdougall has a good book. Eat a lot of ripe fruit too. Diet change really helped my BM's and my dry skin.
I used to have dry skin on my face but and painfully dry skin on my hands. Taking Iodine solved that for me. Dry skin is one of the main symptoms of Iodine deficiency. Do some research on this forum and begin taking Iodine and some co-factors ASAP: //www.curezone.org/forums/f.asp?f=815&c=0
You could also look into buying wombat's iodine cream and put that directly onto the problem areas. But I think supplementing will help by itself.
Liver Flushing is a great idea too.
As for your boss and people noticing it, try not to be embarrassed and just tell them the truth, that you are having some health problems that are difficult to manage. They should understand. Keep your head up.

This is a reply to # 2,263,974Thank you for the information. I'll look into that diet and iodine(heard things about it)
Yeah, i try to keep my head high, i had lots of confidence before this happened which just lowered that by about 80%.

This is a reply to # 2,263,970Dry lips and skin are a sign of low thyroid and gut fermentation. You need to first eat a lot of fiber from raw fruits and vegetables. Normal number of bowels paper day is 3-4. If you are not pooping you have lots of other issues to follow.
I agree with Tayto, Liver Flush and Iodine will help. Have you taken your basal temperature? If not, please do, you can search for it on CZ search. If your basal temperature is above 96 then you need to look at your gut and do a colon cleanse, kidney cleanse and then liver flush. Don't be afraid of liver flush, just read and be prepared and ask questions here on Liver-Flush forum. I rather do that vs. taking drugs and other supplements.
Eat raw foods and you will be fine. All processed foods are staying in your colon and not getting out.
Take care.

This is a reply to # 2,263,979Yes, my derm said maybe i should have my thyroid checked, i asked about the bowel movement thing and she just told me everyone has different periods of days, but i will try to improve so i can have bm at least once a day, a bit hard since i have had bad bm since i was young.
I have not taken my basal temp, but i will go ahead and take it.
Thank you for the information.

This is a reply to # 2,263,970You are allergic to something you are eating.
Red around mouth, in 99.9% of people is a sign of allergy or intolerance.
You may react to pollen, together with reacting to food you are eating or water you are drinking.
And, it is always something you ate during the last 24/48 hours.
Watch for color changes after eating different foods, and you will find what it is.
It can be milk, or Sugar or tomatoes or strawberries, vinegar, or tropical fruits including bananas, or fish, or food additives and preservatives or nuts or cosmetics or perfumes or soaps, or toothpaste or grains or rice or pesticides or ols, or even people or objects you touch... or laundry detergent etc.
POOP is, buy the way, available in every country of the world, you just have to look at the right place.
Bullshit "FMT is not available in my country"
For gods sake, it just poop, how difficult can it be to find?
Unless you regulate your bowel movements, and unless you have at least 1 per day ... you will be only wasting your money trying to fix the rest of your problems.
Start liver flushing!
Go on Elimination Diet and figure out what foods aggravate your constipation and your skin .

This is a reply to # 2,263,984I will look into liver flushing, as for FMT i said that because i once told my family ahout it but then they all looked at me like I'm crazy, and all the family members i know are definitely not donor worthy since they have are all on long term meds.
Drinking water kefir helped with my bowel movements, but i have no idea what to do to bring it up. I have tried eating apple for days since i had no appetite and sometimes it gets red, sometimes not.
Will Dr Hulda's recipe work? Do i need to do any other cleansing before doing those?

This is a reply to # 2,263,970Try to contact a dermatologist it could be an even more serious problem. sound like eczema too. obviously you're dehydrated. drinks lots of water and don't stay long in bath,, there should be an ointment for that or a vaseline. Use humidifier as well to bring moist in the air and into your skin. winter can be the cause of dry air.

This is a reply to # 2,265,729I believe we need to clean eczema from inside out. Applying potion/lotion/cream will only mask the pain and itch. If you want to remove eczema thoroughly you will need to remove offensive food such as gluten and probably diary, stop all offensive foods, you may go for food allergy tes to identify what are bad for you. Subsequently, Introduce good supplements of probiotics, wheatgrass and omeg etca. Be watchful as you might need to storm through some healing reactions or die-off reactions that can be awful.
I cured my eczema after a span of 18 months with some trial and error of many different types of natural approach. I did it successful since 2 years ago!- Re: Depressed over my skin longterm

This is a reply to # 2,272,303I am glad this approach worked for you. I am uncertain about the wheatgrass if you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, though.

This is a reply to # 2,272,314My apologies for replying late. I am not sure if i have celiac, but i am certain i was gluten sensitive as my practitioner had confirmed it with the bio-resonance screening (please google if you not sure this is)
Fighting eczema is a long and a dark journey that required lots of patience and determination. I tried several supplements with the attitude of trial and error. I did my research carefully prior to any diets or supplements I took. I would suggest wheatgrass as one of the supplements mainly because it is a "powerhouse" superfood pack with a variety of nutrients. it absorbs perfectly well on my weak digestive system. Apart from that, it serves as a detoxification, which is essential in your protocol. Choose your wheatgrass wisely, go for those that are organic... good luck!

This is a reply to # 2,263,970Vitamin B2, and the whole Mega B vitamins at double dose. You have some internal allergy. Have a look at the Candida threads.

This is a reply to # 2,263,970I know and can feel your pain and you don't need to apologize for seeking help. We are all on curezone seeking cures for various ailments. My neice suffered with a similar problem to your for years and went to many doctors and many tests ----to no avail. Her hair fell out and scars formed all over her body. she tried ll the things you mentioned and more... After about 10 years, we were told about Neem Oil. Not sure if you've heard of it but to make a long story short- she ordered it as pure as possible (not the kind on Amazon because it's usually mixed with fillers and preservatives . Our grandmother lived in Nigeria and when we visited her, we were able to bring some back to the states. We placed it on my niece's skin and it took about 10 days to notice a difference in the skin breakouts and patches all over (even in her head and face). We couldn't beleive what was happening because we sort of expected it not to work... 4 years later and she is still healed and cured. Her blemishes have lightened up and scarring almost gone but she does not look leprous anymore at least. I highly recommend you try an African-grade Neem Oil. There's a site my family orders our Organic African oils from which takes about 10 days to come from Africa but its worth the quality of all their products. The link to the site is here http://zuwena-african-bodycare-products.mybigcommerce.com/neem-oil-100-pressed/
I hope you will keep us updated on your progress and I know it should work for you. Don't give up.
