Poor DD has got a terrible outburst of eczema. All over her face, neck, chest, arm and leg crevices
GP prescribed a big goody bag of lotions to try out, one of which is a steroid cream (hydrocortisone).
She advised me to only use it occasionally or when her eczema is particularly bad, which obviously I will.
A friend of mine also suffers from awful eczema and often tells me she avoids using steroid cream when she can.
Does anyone know the ill/side effects?
I have to use it on DDs face, even her eye lids. She's 2.
TIA.
