when you said you got rid of it a few years ago with diet do you mean it fully went into remission as in you were 100% cured? or were you still peeling because if you were 100% cured you wouldn't have to peel them or apply anything on them!
also Antibiotics is probably helping a little bit but won't fix the ec issue similar to most dermatitis/eczema conditions they improve while on Antibiotics ...
how long did it take on the diet to cure the ec and how long on the diet did it take before you started to see improvements?
