I usually wear disposable gloves to do chores around the house when my eczema flares up. Otherwise, my hands can crack and bleed something fierce, and can sometimes become infected. And doggone it, stress is one of the things that can cause my symptoms to flare up.
Unfortunately, it has been quite a bit of a challenge lately to get disposable gloves when I need them, so I'm trying to figure out some ways to improvise. Thus far, those plastic bags that newspapers come in work okay for things like washing dishes, but they're not much help for most household chores, such as cooking, cleaning, pulling weeds, etc.
Any ideas? *asks hopefully*
