Tough to do : The conditions are so different you may need a combination of topical steroids and topical antibiotics or other acne medications that will not aggravate acne --avoid retinoids and benzoyl peroxide.

Can eczema start in your late 50s or early 60s? I read online that eczema starts in your 20s or earlier. I am almost 61 and have red, flaky, non-itchy spots on my face for the first time ever. I've always struggled with acne.

Help! I have bad eczema but all my eczema products like desonide and elidel that my old derm gave me cause me to breakout and get lots of cystic pimples and even some whiteheads. If I try to treat the breakouts with acne stuff it dries out my skin?
