if you mean fatty acid metabolism and its effect on eczema ,studies has seen that very high doses of linoleic acid or modest doses of GLA acid produce clinical improvement, particularly in itching,Preliminary studies suggest that using skin creams containing omega fatty acids can reduce the severity of eczema or prevent eczema entirely.
if your eczema has persisted for a long time or is unusually severe, check with the doctor,the doctor may suggest that you be patch tested to determine if you are allergic to any of the chemicals and allergens you are exposed to on a daily basis at home or at work. Patch testing involves putting different substances on your skin to see how it reacts.
You may receive a prescription for a corticosteroid medication to put on your eczema. (Hint: It will soothe your itching better if you keep it in the refrigerator.) Use topical corticosteroids only as needed—that is, when your hand eczema is actively flaring. Prolonged use of these drugs can cause thinning of the skin, and there are other side effects to consider as well.
Perhaps your doctor will recommend a non-corticosteroid topical medication such as tacrolimus (Protopic) or pimecrolimus (Elidel). These agents are approved for use by adults and children two years of age or older, and they do avoid many of the side effects of corticosteroids. They should not be used long-term on sun-exposed portions of skin, like the backs of the hands; sunscreen must always be used.
Beyond that, clearing up your eczema depends largely on how you change your day-to-day habits.
