I find it difficult to get up and down taking baths so instead I use a metal basin of warm water to which I add some bleach and I soak my washcloth and then pour the diluted bleach over the places that I have dermatitis outbreaks, keeping my eyes closed to protect my eyes from bleach. I also wash thoroughly with Dial antibacterial soap as well before thoroughly rinsing off. I do this routine almost every time i take a shower since I started having skin problems last year. When my first outbreak of skin infection and extensive rashes started, I took a Benadryl for several nights before bedtime for relief and it worked quite well to clear up the rashes. But I only take Benadryl as a last resort as Claritin is preferable for mental alertness. I have an allergic reaction to most skin ointments but have found Rite Aide's basic zinc oxide with just zinc oxide and vaseline to be very helpful in treating my rash prone areas, especially in areas on close contact with clothing.
