Go get some zinc ointment or baby diaper rash cream like Penaten, at night apply a thick layer to wherever you have it, then pat on some boric acid, wrap your legs or whereever in rags (to keep it off your clothing etc at night) and throw the rags in the garbage in the morning. When I was a kid an old lady told my mom this and did it to me and it worked, I was in agony with really bad exzema

well, i have eczema too
and although all my creams have steroids and are out of your range, i have some things i do that help me out a bit
first of all i try to keep cool and calm so that i dont sweat
make sure that the sweat does not go to the place where your arm is all red
also if it is rele itchy it means that you are really hot, it is really hot in the area
just apply some freezing cold water onto your arm
i find that this works best because it sortof numbs your arm and you dont feel itchy, though this dries your arm, just apply cream before you sleep and the cream will reduce the dryness that also causes the itchyness

I was reading about Biotin, Vit H, or B7, never heard it called this, and is supposed to be adequate in diet, but, supposedly it helps w eczema, cradle cap, scalp dermatitis, even if used as a supplement to adequate diet, online, recommended high doses, I bought 600mg at GNC for another reason…Did doc check vitamin levels/deficiency?
Bet Dr. Oz, on Oprah knows… take a look at a few sites, type in biotin.. might be worth a try,

The main cause of eczema is overreaction of the immune system. Identifying certain foods, chemicals, etc can be very helpful in battling this disease. I try to avoid soy and milk products which trigger my flare-ups.
After using number of prescription drugs I’ve turned to the natural treatments.
Now I use herbal remedies from serenaskin.com, which aim at the root of the disease – the immune system, and are steroid-free.
After about 2 weeks of using ointment and spray my skin has been cleared up and now I just continue with anti-eczema extract, which controls the immune system. My skin has been clear for months now.
It is the only treatment I have found that provides me complete relief when I use it as directed.

When I was about 8 I had eczema on the back of my legs. I can remember my mom put olive oil on my legs at night before bed and I would have to put the Eucerin Cream on multiple times a day. Give that a try it only took a few weeks and it was all gone.

Creams and topical ointments only temporarily fix the problem; they do not eliminate the source of the problem.
I highly recommend going to an allergist and/or dermatologist to identify your allergens. From that point, you can avoid what you are allergic to and hopefully have better skin.
Getting a lot of rest, drinking a lot of water and acupuncture are also natural remedies that have made my eczema disappear.
