Any advice on natural remedies for 1 year old child with eczema?My son was diagnosed with eczema when he was about 7 months old. Our dermatologist presribed a low dose steroidal cream which I use sparingly and only when there is a severe outbreak. I use Aveeno
products on a daily basis, especially the moisturizing creams and bath products. I find them to be effective in relieving the itch and reducing redness. I also use the Aveeno Oatmeal bath treatments. When he breaks out on a large area like on his back or stomach, I will mix the Oatmeal with some of the Aveeno bath gel to make a pasty, sudsy texture and bathe him that way. I always put on the cream after bath (head to toe) and in the morning. Hope this helps!
