DS has ony just been diagnosed with excema. I know I can (and will) google this, but just wondered if there are any real tips from parents who are already dealing with this?
GP says it might be brought on by a virus, so I don't know if that means it won't be permanent, but are there any things I can do to help? - have hoovered carpets, sofa, playmat etc. religiously (2cats), he's been given oilatum for bath and lotion to put on 4-6 times a day as well as steroid cream 2 a day. anything I should avoid food-wise - or anything that helps? TIA.
