Eczema cure in Malaysia?

Eczema Cure Malaysia

As a retired medical doctor, I would like to be direct and upfront with the question above. There is no cure for eczema at the moment, however you could manage your’s and your baby’s eczema to a point where it becomes non-visible. 

If you still believe in some of the tooth-fairy folklore self-help ‘how I cure my eczema ebooks’, you will not find us recommending any of those stuff in this post. Most of these ‘alternative’ sites will start by agreeing that there is no medical cure for eczema andhow superficial your medical doctor and your dermatologist are. Then they will bring out their ‘cure all from inside out’ bla bla … Seriously, there is just too much of these non credible and non-proven stuff on the internet. So, decide wisely.

Just to substantiate the ‘no-cure’ claim –

“While there’s no cure for eczema, you can reduce flaky, dry skin by using products infused with hyaluronic acid…”

“There is no cure for eczema, but there are a few things you can do to lessen your risk and prevent flare-ups. ..”
http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/eczema/understanding-eczema-prevention

Do take note that WebMd is one of the top healthcare sites in the world. Its’ ranked as the 2nd most popular site under the health category.

If you would like to check the site that is promoting the ‘ezcema cure all treatments’, try verifying their ‘Alexa ranking’ and compare it with WebMD.

Skin Specialists in Kuala Lumpur: Find and contact a dermatologist in KL | OneDayMD

Dermatologists in Kuala Lumpur: Find and contact a dermatologist in KL


Dermatologists are medically qualified doctors who provide a range of skin care services from treating simple skin conditions to diagnosis and management of more complicated skin cases. Some skin specialists have also expanded their services to provide aesthetic consultation services, and selling beauty and skincare products as well.

Many dermatologists in the private sector can be quite expensive unless you are in the upper income group. You could always try to get a referral to the public or government skin specialists. They may not allow you to make appointment directly without a referral from either a general practitioner or a medical officer from the primary care department. Please make your call and enquire appropriately.
