   Eczema in 3 yr old (Children's Health board)

21st May 2003
Hi there jladams,

Eczema has been a problem in my household for a while now!! My son, (just turned 3 last month) has been a victim of the scratch-fest for quite some time now...
I tried many conservative measures.....alot of Aloe Vera.....oatmeal baths, I changed laundry soaps, I alleviated bubble-baths.........all to no avail. Oh, the ecxema would appear to be going away, but, then, whammo.......right back again....my son's favourite chant became....."Mommy, scatch me!!!"" while leaning over my lap!! I could feel how dry & raised his skin felt!! poor guy!!
After many visits to his DR., I am pleased & relieved
for his sake, to say that we were prescibed ELIDEL.
It seems to be working like a charm......
Apparently, Elidel is a non=steroid cream.

I wish you luck!! Good for you for being concerned about your wee one's problem!!

Hope you are able to find the remedy best suited!!

Let us know how it goes!!

Here's to eczema free children!!
