Things that helped me through TSW

Hi everyone, i've fought a battle with TSW for nearly a year and i can say i am nearly cured now. I haven't used them for too long before tsw and that could be the reason it took me "just" a year.

When my cycle of flare up comes now, i only get a few itchy and red patches and they are gone like day after i wake up with them.

So, i am going to list some things that helped me during last months of my battle.

1. Moisturizer withdrawal - will work for someone, for others it maybe won't. But when i decided to stop using any creams or lotions, after two weeks of very itchy, tight and painful, shedding skin i saw huge improvement in redness and oozing.

2. Zinc supplements - helped me with oozing and swelling

3. MSM tablets/powder with Vitamin C - Huge improvement in redness after only 3-4 days (i used 5g a dayof MSM + 1g of Vit C)

4. Dead sea salt bath - skin gets very irritated after bath, but after a 30 minutes or hour, redness is gone and skin feels smooth and soft

5. Didn't change diet much - but everyone's body is different.

6. Eating cocount oil (2 tablespoons a day) - not sure why, but when i started doing this i noticed that skin got very softer and i think it made my Moisturizer withdrawal much shorter. But when i used CO on skin i got bad reaction so i didn't continued with that.

I hope something will help you through your journey.

Sorry for bad english.

Wish you all the best!
