Hi all
I went to a standard dermatologist today for my increasing eczema around my
eyes. He gave me samples for a light hydrocortisone cream called Dermatop
Ointment. It has: 1.0mg prednicarbate in a base of white petrolatum,
octyldodecanol, glyceryl oleate, propylene glycol, citric acid and propyl
gallate. He wants me to use it no more than 2 weeks.

He also gave me an OTC moisturizer: Aquaphor Healing Ointment from Eucerin.
It has: petrolatum, mineral oil, ceresin, lanolin alcohol, panthenol,
glycerin, bisabolol. I am allergic to wool so I don't know if the lanolin
would affect me....

He also recommend whole milk and water compresses for the fat content to
moisturize the area. I am allergic to milk so he said forget it. I am
wondering if avocado could do the same. I have used avocado recently on my
eyes and did not react to it...so I am wondering if I should try that
instead of the OTC moisturizer.

Any advice? Thanks Julie
