It helps psoriasis too.
 
I had long term eczema that totally went away due to scuba. I tried avoiding dairy to help my air consumption and all sorts of things went away. Turned out after tests I was allergic to dairy.

If you start diving a dry suit its back to scratching!
 
Salt water definitely helps. It's not for nothing cosmetic companies sell the salt and mineral mud from the dead sea here.
Yes, certainly not for nothing. My guess is they sell them for exorbitant amounts of Euros. :wink:
 
So lucky!
Scuba diving actually makes me get hand and foot eczema severely! I had to give up being an underwater videographer because of exposure to salt water
