Can I use Cardiospermum Gel on varicose eczema?
The gel will probably help to soothe the skin and moisturise the dryness. However, you should patch test to make sure you have no allergy to anything in the gel. It is my understanding that Varicose Eczema is very sensitive to many creams so be extra careful. The gel will not help the underlying cause of varicose eczema which is poor circulation in the legs. I would recommend taking a supplement to help with circulation such as pycnogenol (pine bark extract) or another strong antioxidant. There are also support stockings which have been shown to help. You should also take advice on exercises to help improve your overall circulation.
