hi. i just like to know if any one on mn have had some sort of clothing on the nhs for eczema. both my sons have eczema the eldest nearly 10 mainly have eczema on his legs and elbows but recently he also have it on his face. but is not as severe ad his younger bro 8. his one is mainly all over his body and there isn't a nice skin in any part of his body. his hands and knees are the worst. over the past 6 years he doc have prescribed tonnes of steroids which i use but doesn't seem to help anymore. moisturising and steroids use doesn't stop the itch. he would scratch himself to sleep and or i would hold his hands and scratch for him. I did some research on the web and i like to know if anyone know about dermasilk. it meant to be very helpful for people with skin conditions especially night time scratching. which is a nightmare for all of us. i took my son to the doctors but she have not heard of it. i think that my be the only solution because he scratch till he bleeds.
