10 Home Remedies For Eczema
Home Remedy #10: Honey and Tea Tree Oil
Honey has been used in traditional medicine for various skin conditions for many years. It has been effectively used for the treatment of burns and wounds as it has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. In eczema patients, the application of honey can help moisturize the skin, accelerate healing, and prevent secondary infections. However, it is only feasible if the eczema is localized.
Tea tree oil is also often used for skin conditions due to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. Derived from the Melaleuca alternifolia tree leaves, it may help relieve the itching and skin dryness. To use it as a home remedy for eczema, mix tea tree oil with a carrier oil and apply it to the affected area.
