ds1 has eczema which is usually pretty much under control.However after being away last week his skin is in a terrible state.and what is strange is that almost not like eczema.It is incredibly dry and leathery ALL OVER hs body practically. he has a spotty rash on his chest which he seems to get every year.we don't know if it's the sun, suncream,pool water or what.
have been using all the usual gunk and am now looking for alternatives.thought about coconut oil? just oiling his whole body a couple of times a day? he's not itchy btw.just dry.
