Any places in Cork/Cork City that would help with Eczema/Neurodermatitis?

    I was diagnosed with Neurodermitis back in April in Germany - I was told it affects my whole body and I was given several creams (Lipikar Eczema Med, Cera Ve Smoothing Cream, Cera Ve Hydrating Cleanser) they helped, but it still affects me and I'd like to get rid of it completely

    I was placed on the waiting list for another dermatologist in Cork back in December, but I still have no idea when the appointment will be sent to me - in the meantime, does anyone know any treatment, home remedies or special centres which may help? Any general advice would be appreciated as well

    Not sure if this is the right forum to post this question, but Reddit r/cork deleted it for some reason…

    Don't know about Cork, but I went to Nicola Ralph in Dublin.

    After going to several other quacks she immediately diagnosed saeboric dermatitis and prescribed protopic and eumovate which aren't over the counter moisturisers as above.

    They helped stop the itchiness and scaly effect. Still use them when I get flareups.

    Initial consultation was €250. Expensive, but she is a professor of dermatology so should know her stuff.

    I sent an email to her office and was told "she was closed to new patients"

    If I recall correctly, your doctor should give you the names of a few dermatologists?

    I was referred and don't think it took that long to get an appointment
