DS 4 months was diagnosed with eczema today. Already his chest looks much worse, not on his face yet. I am really upset mainly becasue I don;t know what to do for the best.
I have diprobase and hydrocortisone on prescription and bought (not baby) Aveeno from the chemist. Am trying Aveeno first.
His skin isnlt really dry, just very red patches, legs a bt rough to the touch.
Also exclusivey breastfeeding, and neither I nor DH has eczema.
Totally confused about how to get rid of the cause and treat the symptoms.
