My brothers and sisters have this really bad. I have exema ... but mildly. Unfortunately it does leave scarring if you scratch it or dont use your medication as needed . And the tanning/ sun is good for it. Keep that up if you can but watch for skin cancer. My brother has had that also , and has had to have several patches of it removed. I know its a horrible thing to have. Just keep using your SPcreams too ok? That will help . Good luck. Wish I could help you out more on this.
