Eczema on scalp

Hi! My little one has eczema on his scalp. It's really bad at the moment and he scratches it until it bleeds ☹️. He cries whilst doing it so it's obviously bothering him. Does anyone have any recommendations for shampoo? We used dentinox for cradle cap at first but that just dried it out even more as it's not cradle cap. We have used aveeno and childs farm but both still leave him with dry itchy skin and patches of eczema. We put baby oil on his hair every 3 nights and he sleeps with it on - we wash it off in the morning but by lunchtime he's itching again. Thanks in advance. X

I'd try and find out the cause of the allergy. With me and my DSis it was CMPA.

My LO has eczema, the Aveeno bath emollient has helped when used in conjunction with the cream (rubbed in twice a day). Greasy hair, but at least it's not flaking /painful

I use ginger shampoo from the body shop for me and DS - amazing stuff!
