Eczema and Dermatitis Advice needed

0 replies

Just wondering if anyone can help. DS, 5 months, has got lots of hair but also lots of cradle cap. Since it's turned colder he keeps getting Dermatitis & Eczema on his face & scalp. I'm using Cetraben ointment & Aveeno Dermexa. They help a little but not a lot. I'm using Oilatum bath additive. He's scratching his scalp a little & has made it bleed. GP wasn't much help, just said it's defo a combination of the 2 and to keep moisturising him. Any advice out there on any products to try? The Dermatitis is mainly on his forehead & eyelids, whereas the eczema comes up in bumpy areas on his head & side of his face.
