Hi my son who is 4 1/2 has be diagnosed with eczema in the winter so this will be the first summer we have had to deal with it, so am after a bit of advice on a few things.

  1. What type on sun-cream should I use as I obviously don't want it to flare up the eczema.


  1. Will chlorine in the swimming pools agitate it as we are going on holiday in 3 weeks and I am wanting to start teaching him to swim.


Thanks in advance xx
