Grover's Disease: What works to help find relief?

I was diagnosed with Grover's disease (winter eczema) several years ago. I shows up around December and lasts until spring. My dermatologist prescribed two different prescription drugs (can't remember the names) and they seemed to work OK. When he retired I asked for any otc recommendations and he suggested CeraVe moisturizing cream. I apply it after showering every day during "the season" and it is very effective. Without it my torso is heavily covered with the rash. Hope this helps.

I am a 65 male who has had it somewhat mildly for many years. i play competitive hard ball baseball and am a pitcher. the sweating during the season causes flareups. however, workouts during the winter can also do the same. i use go,d bond powder every day and triamcinalone cream when it flares. i would like to learn of potentially more effective treatments that others use. typically its 5 to 10 spots on chest or back during flare ups and very itchy.
thanks.
