Natural ?: To go natural is to accept the disease & suffer its flares. Various creams and ointments made from natural products can help some & there are many (Gold Bond). However, there are prescribed alternatives that work better. The primary goal is to keep the skin intact enough tp prevent germs from getting through. Don't expect it to clear, though it goes through waves of improvement before worsening.
