Dd has some sort of contact dermatitis/eczema thing

[WigWamBam]

It's on her cheeks - I've realised it's where she brings her cup up too high when she drinks and it hits her face. Don't know why it's causing the soreness but it's definitely that.

I thought to start with she'd scratched herself and have been using Sudocreme, but it's not helped. Have got her using a straw at the moment to stop the contact but it's red and sore and I don't really know what to use on it. Any suggestions would be gratefully received!

dermol
epaderm
doublebase
diprobase
e 45
I suggest start with double base u can get on prescription by hv
hth

Thank you.

I need to get something over the counter first but if we can't sort it out I'll see the GP.

She seems to have quite a bit of skin trouble at the moment, she gets patches of eczema by her nose but it hasn't been too troublesome until now. Her cheeks are really bad at the moment though.

the cold weather/wind will exacerbate it, put a light layer of vaseline on when she goes out.

Brilliant, thank you

We've got diprobase which we use on ds - at one stage he got quite bad excema but its cleared up a lot, and we just put diprobase on whenever there is a patch that flairs up a bit. We got it prescribed which makes it very inexpensive!
