Answer: my father in law had the worst case of eczema that i had ever seen in my life it looked like someone was peeling it and using sand paper to his arms.Well he went to the doctor for 15 years and they would keep giving him a special cream but it never went away it just kept it from spreading. well he's a truck driver and one day at one of his stops a young lady told him to but Gold Bond on it.A WEEK later it had gone down so much it was unbelievable!! you couldnt see it anymore and you could hardly feel it. I think that it has been about a month now and it is completely gone. we were so shocked how quickly it went away with such a common product.
