My son gets red bumpy skin on his face. It doesn't itch. It was diagnosed as eczema. We have been given various emollients but have run out & am using bottom butter. He has recently been washing his face with soap and tthats made it worse. Can anyone recommend a face wash?

Thanks

Maybe try washing his pillowcase in just water, in case his rash is due to tiny amounts of washing powder from clothes washing?
I had eczema caused by washing powder as a child
Also could try additive free bread/simple, whole foods or going back to "grandmas diet" with no numbers/preservatives/antioxidants/colours for a few days in case that clears it up
Good luck with finding a good facial wash at pharmacy/health food shop
