Looking for Moms Who Are Having Trouble with Baby Eczema

I am also having a terrible time with my 20 month old son's excema. The worst is that it is spreading to his left cheek. He has had it for about a year on his right cheek and it is not in the creases of his elbows, knees, calves, and a few other small areas. My doctor has given me various prescriptions that aren't working. I have changed soap (body, shampoos, laundry, etc..) several times. Not sure what to do. He cries when I use the different lotions because I think they burn. Anyhow, I would love to find out what you are using so I can try it. I realy don't want any lasting marks on his little cheeks.

Thanks so much!!

Hey K., I sent you an e-mail about my son. I was wondering if you got it and if you could tell me what samples it is that you have... J. Smith

I found a great Rx that my dr gave me samples of and a Rx. It's called Culivate or Cutivate. Anyway - I put it on my sons eczema once a day and it was completey cleared up in 3 day!!! And it didn't burn or sting.

My 4 yr old boy has had eczema since age 2 weeks and it was diagnosed at 4 months by a dermatologist at TX Children's Hospital. He prescribed Elocon and Fluticasone Propionate (maybe these are the same). Putting this on then vaseline over it works beautifully to cure his skin.

Hi K....we have been to dermatologist that have suggested Locoid and aquaphor..but neither have cleared my Haleigh's eczema. The doctor also gave us some Eczema oil to put on twice a day but that has yet cleared it up. We've tried aveno and other non perfume lotions but it is still scaly and has her itching all day. Please let me know what you have. My daughter is 1 yr 8mos.

I have a 7 year old with severe eczema and she has since she was an infant. We have tried everything I MEAN everything. Currently it is under control but with 4 rx creams/ointments which as you probably know gets expensive...Please email me your information. I appreciate your help. ____@____.com
