And nothing seems to be helping it. She's always suffered due to it being prevalent in our dad's side of the family. But I haven't seen her for six months due to moving away and when I saw her this Christmas I was really shocked. Her face is red raw, cracked weeping...and she's in agony.
I feel so shit for her, she works in a local pub waitressing and I know a few comments from idiots have really upset her.
Can anyone with experience of teenage eczema please give me some advice I can offer her and perhaps suggest some medical causes and/or temporary solutions. I have had to bite my tongue while here as my mum's take on it seems to be 'she'll just have to ride it out' but I think she should be exploring every possible avenue.
Oh and we are from a farm, so keeping away from animals is almost an impossibility for her.
Many thanks
