Hi there

I'm a regular member of this site but I hang around the GERD thread. My Dad has severe Nummular Dermatitis and I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with this condition and can offer some tips on treating it and good ways to sooth the discomfort. I hate seeing him so dispondent about life and he feels chained to his house due to the horrible itching and buring.

Thanks

I don't have this but I do have Perioral Dermatitis. Not the same thing exactly but I understand about the mental affect this can have on a person.
Take a look at this website, they might give you more ideas that you can pass along to your father.
