Relief for itching skin and blisters

I believe many itching skin eruptions and blister conditions are basic eczema, pompholyx, and dyshidrosis cases. I had recently been diagnosed by a foot doctor as having Pustular Psoriasis after doc scrutinized a scattered few tiny whitish-colored blisters on palms of my hands as well as the mess the blisters made on the outside and bottom of the soles of my feet. I strongly disagree with the podiatrist on this diagnosis of psoriasis and believe that I simply have a case of Dyshidrosis. The Dr. performed a punch biopsy which will answer the true diagnosis in 10 days. He prescribed Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream 0.5%. Wishing not (at this point) to jump into the world of steroid creams, I resorted to a more homeopathic remedy which, I am delighted to say, is improving my condition dramatically. I first use a home-mixed colloidal silver/aloe vera gel to cleanse and moisten affected areas. After this has dried, I rub pure honey into these areas (yes, I know, sticky and messy) but rub in very, very well. After this has dried (3-5 min), I rub in extra virgin olive oil. The three treatments together may take about 15-20 minutes but is well worth it. No itch and the affected areas are smooth and feel like they have a sealent on them, which, actually, they do. This concoction creates a wonderful seal, relieves the itch, dries the blisters and is indeed healing. The rubbing-in very well has a heat and circulatory benefit as well as creates the seal. Because the treatment dries so well after rubbing in, I can put on my high-cotton-content white socks and go on about my business. I practice this treatment 2-3 times a day (if time permits) but definitely after morning shower and at night before bed.
I'm employed in home healthcare and therefore need to be long on my feet in proper footwear (which can be hot, smothering, and damp) and practice continual hand cleansing which both actions can cause eczema, dermatitis, etc.... I hope others will research these natural substances (amongst others) and realize the cleansing, soothing, humectifying, anti-itch and antibiotical properties herein and consider giving them a chance to aid many afflictions.
Good Luck!
