The oatmeal thing does work on some people, I have tried allsorts over the years, E45 and Aqueous creams do not work for me, but I will only use steroid cream when desperate. My feet were so bad earlier this year that none of my creams worked and I had to try permanganate crystals in water. I have not seen this used generally since the 80's when I first started nurse training, but it did the trick, I used my usual creams as well. It seems that different things work for different people, I never started with eczema until I was 30. :
