Homemade Eczema Treatment (7): Butter
OK, I haven’t try this out and so I cannot validate that this works. However, according to an unspecified contributer at Home Remedies, she said:
“I … pray for me so that i could get rid of my eczema. The next day somehow a stick of butter had gotten on my table and I thought to myself, this must be a sign. Now my eczema is completely cleared because I rub a stick of butter on my skin everyday!

Hi Candy
It’s tough to answer your question as I haven’t try out this method myself. However, I believe it’s the common butter we normally used at home. I did a google search but yields little results. Have you tried Crisco? It works well.

Thank you for the crisco suggestion. I’ve tried borage oil, fish oil, vitamin 5 oil, olive oil, hydrocortisone cream, Sarna lotion, vaseline, you name it, except butter and crisco.
