re: psoriasis/ bad eczema treatment tonsillectomy curing all problems in 80%

eczema is the body’s immune system’s overreacting to allergens (every tree and grass pollen and dogs in my son’s case)

Tonsils are part of the body’s immune system. A “frontline” defense actually:

The below quote is from this link

quote:

---

Specialized cells on the tonsils record the presence of a threat, such as a virus or bacteria, and report that threat to the rest of the immune system so the body can formulate a response and keep you healthy.

The removal of these specialized “tattle tell” cells must be what ends the eczema flares.

I am definitely going to look into this more. Our 6 year old son is covered head to toe with eczema and has been since he was 4 months old. We’ve tried EVERYTHING —Even the just fda approved for 6 and up dupixent shots— without any luck. It’s really sad to watch him suffer. Scratching and bleeding constantly. Waking up at night unable to sleep. Dreading the summer because sweat burns him and he can’t play with his friends and siblings. He can’t go in the ocean. It’s a mess. We used to have to wrap him up like a mummy.

He’s a major pain in the rear about letting us put all his creams on and taking bleach baths. We have to pin him down because he loathes being “greasy”
Drives me nuts!
