I have excema on the corner of my lips and they kinda look like coldsores, but I know they're not because I went to my doctor and she said that it was excema. She told me to use vasaline and hydrocortisone together but it's not really working. Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

You can't get rid of eczema. You can reduce it however. How long have you had it? I say just continue using the vaseline and hydrocortisone. It'll eventually subside.

My doctor prescribed to me a medicated lotion that worked wonders.
I also watched what I ate because some foods made my eczema go crazy. I avoided
chocolates, peanuts, greasy foods, and processed foods. Continue with the routine
but if it gets worse, go see a dermatologist. Good luck to you!
