DS2 has been diagnosed as having pollen triggered eczema. Has anyone ever heard of or experienced this?

My mum has a flare of her eczema when the pollen gets high. She reckons its as her histamine levels get high from the hayfever it makes her skin super sensitive

Helium, I still am very conerned. But I can now look at alternative treatments.
The Dr gave doublebase and piriton to be used daily.

I am going to a chinese herbalist this weekend with him to see what they can suggest.

I kinda expected him to have hayfever but not eczema through pollen.

Doublebase works very well with my DS - hope it does for your DS too. Cargirl linked to a mirror story about an acid pollen cloud on another recent hayfever thread. Worth a gander - it may be this 'event' is making everyone worse atm and it will ease off again.
