2 year old has very bad eczema
Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2017 11:38 am
Hello
My 2 year old daughter has always suffered badly with eczema since she was born (diagnosed by my GP). I use a moisturiser on her daily and have tried various brands, none of which seem to help. When her eczema flares up badly (which it does often) she is given various steroid creams to help.
Recently the eczema patches on her back have become very red, inflamed and have started to bleed. My GP prescribed a course of oral antibiotics but they do not seem to be helping it. She is becoming really distressed and it is affecting her sleep. I feel like I am constantly taking her to our GP but not getting proper support.
Please could you tell me if there is any thing else I can do.
